Maastrictian Posted October 2, 2001 Share Posted October 2, 2001 Um... why not just download winzip again? --Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fieldmarshall Posted October 2, 2001 Author Share Posted October 2, 2001 Brilliant!!! What would be truly cruel is if they put it in a zipped file... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maastrictian Posted October 2, 2001 Share Posted October 2, 2001 You really can't put anything past those sneaky winzip people. They put their program in a self-extracting file. --Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Panic Posted October 3, 2001 Share Posted October 3, 2001 I've been happy with a program called "Zipmagic" It treats all zip files like they were plain old folders on your hard drive. To zip up a folder, just add ".zip" to the end of the name. To unzip, just remove the ".zip" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricochet Posted October 3, 2001 Share Posted October 3, 2001 The WinZip file you download off the web only last 30 Days now so be prepared to buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrapGame Posted October 3, 2001 Share Posted October 3, 2001 I'll second the ZipMagic recommendation. 2 thumbs up for simplicity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manx Posted October 3, 2001 Share Posted October 3, 2001 You could also try Powerarchiver -- supports ALL windows file formats -- zip, ace, rar, arj, and so on. Prog used to be free, but is now shareware. It's great if you don't want to have 3-4 different programs installed just to open archive files.
