Cannot download .zip files, click on them brings up a blank page.
Hello, can you clarify
a. How are you trying to download them?
b. Can you download them, but not open them?
c. "a blank page" - in which program?
Maybe a screenshot or so would help. Thanks!
..............click on them brings up a blank page..............
I am assuming you meant you cannot OPEN zip files, not download.
If my supposition is correct, then my answer is :
You need a program to UN-zip the files before you can open them.
The most popular program to un-zip is 7 zip.
Here is the 7 Zip download link.
Make sure you download the correctbit version.
Try RIGHT click
select save / save as
Note: From at least Win 8, File Explorer can open zip files. You don't need another program, but you may prefer to use a 3rd party program.
What is the icon for your zip files?
(If your problem is OPENING the file, please check your file type association - if necessary, set one by rt clicking the file, 'Open With', Choose another app, make sure you check the box at the bottom, click the program you want to use).
No Sir, I know the difference between downloading and opening a file.....I cannot download , I have a program to unzip a file.
All zip files or just one particular one that you cannot download ?
Would you mind post a link to a zip file that you cannot download ?
See if you can download this compressed folder
It contains a custom Disk Management mmc that I created.
dmDskmgr-vd.zip
I tried a left click - it downloaded the file (Chrome browser)
Try right click / save
What browser are you using?
Do you have an extension or add-on that opens zip files in the browser?
