Theme editor not seeing or saving files. need the sth file... fixed.

Trying to find and or save themes is not working. Even if I load one of my own themes from the file manager the editor will not save it anyplace on my computer. It will not even see any editor file types. I noticed it a wile back but had no time to look into it.
Works on my other 8.1 laptop. Error: "Cannot save factory themes"
using Win 8.1
, Newest Splat.

Hay look,
Somethings are not locked in stone... lol 3/18/2019

    The theme editor is intended for user themes (extension .sth) NOT factory themes (extension .fth). User themes are stored by default in "C:\Cakewalk Content\SONAR Themes"

    That tells me nothing... :) I've been using TE from day 1 but it won't work on my Desk top.
    The Theme editor is not seeing fth or sth files at all. cant open, cant save, cant see them.
    But if somehow my own themes have been converted to factory themes??? lol
     
     
    OH lol... I need the sth files from my other system... :) Thanks :) and duh... lossin my mind...

    In a related issues. What's up with the Theme Editor? I haven't used it in a while. Is it my imagination or is the time rule colors not working? All around random color issues not changing or set to another color and the wrong color in it's place. background, loop and flags, digits and ticks (what ticks?) M:B:T There are none, even in Factory Themes.
     
    I'm back to using Mercury.

    My theme editor hasn't worked for over a month. Won't even open. I haven't gotten one single response from multiple forum posts or cakewalk. Fortunately I don't really gaf. Keeping me focused on music...
