Zip Files Won't Extract. - Zak956 - Jun 14, 2015

Kind of a dumb question.

I downloaded a .exe file.
Everytime I try to launch it says
"Windows cannot complete extraction the destination file cannot be created."

Any input will be greatly appreciated.

I tried extracting it with winzip 7 and winrar
no luck.🤦‍♂

It's .Zip not .exe and it means the file is damaged :D

so let me get this straight...

all I have to do is re-download and try to extract again?

its a .zip file with a program inside.

it doesn't let me launch or extract files.

try to find the original place of the file, you might have put it on your desktop or copied it and just needs to be opened from the original location. this happens to me all the time, upon copying it can get damaged.

Yes try to re-download the file in ur desktop and again try to extract it, if it didn't work then the file is damaged =(

well actually its the Galaxy Keylogger I bought it and they email you the llink.

and thats the link I've been using.

I tried contacting Nex about the set up but I guess he's busy or something. I just want to be able to extract it and be able to launch the program but I'm not even able to that.

I downloaded again and same problem.

I even tried extracting while still in the download folder and still it says

"file cannot be extracted I don't have the permissions"?
