Try to change security attributes, take ownership and read/write permissions, for the folders wlm-skins and wlm-scripts in the Plus! installation directory.

Please, go to Program Files\Yuna Software\Messenger Plus!, right-click "WLM-Skins", click Properties, and send us a screenshot of the "security" tab, with "Users" as the selected item. :)

Here is mine, for example: [not in english, but order is the same]

totonf, Jieff, ... , this seems to be another recurring problem in Plus!5. Also see:
Directory Cannot be Created.
Won't import skins?
[Coming Soon] PlayStation Messenger v.1.0.3 Beta post removed
and possibly other threads and posts
...

Note that this problem never (or at least not that much) occured in Plus!4 that I know of.

EDIT: more people reporting same issue. Also on shoutbox someone reported again same issue.
EDIT: people are still reporting this issue...
EDIT: and another one.... here
