TICKET ARCHIVE -> zip files not decompressing

matthew2006 - May 10, 2007 - 12:09 pm

when downloading zip files, after download they will not decompress, I keep
getting the message 'file failed to decompress'.

Hello,

I believe what you need is Stuffit Expander. It's a FREE utility that decompresses downloaded files and here's where you can get it: http://www.stuffit.com/mac/expander/index.html

Download and install Stuffit Expander. Launch Stuffit Expander, then drop those stubborn zip files right on the Stuffit Expander icon and bingo... they'll open for you.

Thanks for choosing Macosx.com

Thanks for that info, but I already have tried 'stuffit expander'. The problem could be the software itself, it a game called 'senario poker', my 1st version worked fine, but later it would not work and the lastest version does not decompress, I'm only having problem with this games zip file. other zip files seem ok.
