russia5 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 I hate to ask a question that is not exactly a PHP question in this forum, but I know I can get an answer here. It is kind of silly, but here goes. Some of the time, Winzip does not unzip the apps that I download. I believe most of the time, they are in TAR format. For example, it does not like Smarty templates, nor does it like my Site backup. Both of them are in TAR format. I heard Windows changes the extension, but I look at the zip file and the extension appears to be .tar Does anyone know why I am having this problem and what to do about it?
