    zip archive

    I keep many files on my computer. Yesterday I opened the working file and WinZip gave the following msg - the wrong data in the zip file.

    There are some ideas on how to restore a file?

    Just recover it from backup.

        What operating system are you using? Have you encrypted the backup?

            I found the creator of that thread in a bedsit in Brazil. He pleaded with me to spare his life. I declined. Don't make me come after you

              Why did he get banned? I don't remember seeing a 'Who's been banned post'?

                At a guess he was teeing up the spammer - i.e. Both posting from the same IP address range, etc.

                I think if Admin posted the name of every spammer banned, the thread would be a lot bigger than it currently is.

                  Install 7zip and try that - I've had corrupt zip files that WinZip couldn't handle but 7zip allowed partial extraction of archived files that weren't corrupted.

                    I don't have a backup copy, but I tried other variants, I still can't get back my important data.
