I needed to get a bit into the code to see what is done. In PharoLauncher, when you download a template from the we, the template is stored in a folder (e.g. /Users/john/Library/Preferences/pharo/templateCache/) as well as some metadata for it. PhLLocalTemplate class is used to build a list of locally available templates from the metadata file store in this folder. As this folder is intended to be a cache, that’s why you cannot run it directly. You first need to unzip the template, create its metadata file. Maybe an action on images: « create template from image and delete image » would help you (if it allows overriding of an existing template)? You also have a « recreate » action on images able to recreate the image from the specified origin template. Christophe
