Problem extracting wtp-all zip (windows platform) [message #181827]

I have downloaded the current wtp-all zip (which was
wtp-all-in-one-sdk-R-1.5.1-200609230508-win32.zip when I submitted this)
for the windows platform from the wtp project downloads page.

When I try extracting the archive some of the contents are password
protected. Whats the story? Am I meant to skip? or is there something I'm
missing?

Long ago, I recall some discussion of this issue (on this news group) and
think it
had to do with "path too long" sorts of errors, which were then
mis-reported as
password issues. You might try a really short top directory name to unzip
to, and
you might try other unzip programs.

Are you using the ZIP file handling that is built into Windoze XP? IF
so, try with a "real" ZIP utility such as WinZip, PowerArchiver, 7Zip,
etc. The tool built into XP has problems with long path names in ZIP files.

By the way, this has been discussed many times - please search the
newsgroup archives when asking a question.

Hope this helps,
Eric
