Re: [disklavier] P-e-C zip files

2004-02-09 by PianoBench@aol.com

Good afternoon, again.

Tom (and everyone else having trouble unzipping with Windows XP), I have no 
doubt that the trouble that you have reported is a problem that you are 
experiencing. However, I cannot reproduce the problem.

When I download these .zip files using Windows XP Professional, I get a .zip 
archive on my Desktop. If I double-click the archive or right-click and choose 
Open, I can open the archive and get access to everything inside.

If I right-click and select Open with... and choose "Compressed (zipped) 
folders," I get the same good results.

If I right-click and select Extract All, I get the Extraction Wizard. This 
wizard works fine for me.

Regards,
PianoBench
