emergency help

I loaded sh4 on my new laptop vista 64bit

, and I am unable to unzip files with winzip and winrar. They go to unzip, but all of the files error out. Why is this doing this? Is it a vista thing, or something else?

If you try to extract here command with winzip / winrar on Vista, the system doesnt allow the software to do as the command says. To override this, you should just drag and drop the files from the .rar file and then it'll only ask for administrator's acknowledgement on that issue.

Sure it is odd and im yet to find a cure for it..

But that ought to help.

I run Vista and find that I can't unzip to any location except my desk top. I then just cut and paster the files to where they need to go.
