When I try to apply the dark the theme, I got the following error: Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, spacemacs-common and the theme doesn't load everytime I restart emacs(26.3).

How did you apply it?

Shinyhero36 commented 4 years ago

I try the following command on emacs M-x package install RET spacemacs-theme But it wasn't working. So i downloaded the repo and put the .el files in the theme folder which is here: Emacs\share\emacs\26.3\etc\themes. I restarted emacs and go to M-x customize-theme ans selected the dark-theme.

I did a quick screencast showing how to do that in a couple of ways from a vanilla emacs installation. There are many other, look for what suits you best.

after I edited the init.el file and restarted emacs. Packages don't install. I am on windows by the way.

I don't believe this is an issue with the theme. I would suggest you to look into how to install packages in general in emacs. Here are some popular package manager: https://github.com/raxod502/straight.el https://github.com/jwiegley/use-package
