I'm having trouble getting wintune-43zip to run. It ask which program Iwant to use image preveiw, media player,or other. How can I get this to execute?Thanks
You will want to download and install a decompression program such as WinZip in order to be able to decompress the filetype .zip. This filetype indicates a compressed file which needs a thrid party program to decompress it, as opposed to a self-extracting compressed file which has the extension of .exe. As an aside, not all files having the extension of .exe are compressed; self-extracting files are a special subset of these.
If you take the link to WinZip, you can download a trial copy of the software and try it out for 21 days; beyond that point, you would be legally expected to register the progam with them. There are freeware decompression programs available, almost all of which are adware supported, so I do not recommend them.
Once you get a decompression program installed, you can just double-click the .zip file, the decompression program will open, and you can tell it where you wish to extract the contents of the file.
