Post subject: | PF3 Demo file problem |
Hi all, I'm trying to download the PF3 trial, but having a problem. I've got the bit.ly link, which gives me the pf3_demo_installer.zip file. Unfortunately, when I try to extract it the .bin file it contains creates an error. 7-zip calls it a "data error" and the native windows zip app calls it an unspecified error. I tried downloading and extracting with anti-virus off and also with WinRAR, but no joy. Any ideas on what else I can try? Many thanks, Brendan |

How strange! Just tried it here with 7-Zip version 19.0 and Winzip version 11.2, both worked fine. Could you let me see a screen shot of the error please? |

Thanks heaps for looking in to this for me, Dave. I forgot to mention that I've tried downloading the file a few times, and using Free Download Manager, to eliminate any downloading problems, but there's no difference. I've attached screenshots of: - The error from the native Windows unzip - The error from 7-zip 19.00 - The error when running PF3 install after partial decompression Also, I downloaded the file on a linux machine hoping to unzip it and then copy to windows for install, but received this: *************** $ unzip pf3_demo_installer.zip Archive: pf3_demo_installer.zip inflating: PF3_DEMO_Installer-1.bin error: invalid compressed data to inflate inflating: PF3_DEMO_Installer.exe inflating: README FIRST.txt ***************** Thanks again for looking in to it.

Just discovered the download file WAS corrupt... must have had a hiccup during the upload. All is well now so please just download again and everything should be okay. Sorry for the inconvenience |
