SH3 Commander will not unzip

storm-petrel · 01-27-14, 04:15 PM

Hi all, I have downloaded SH3 Commander and the trial version of WinZip, but when I try to unzip the SH3 file I am getting a message that says it cannot open any file containing .exe, .bat, and so on.

Have used SH3 Commander in the past so do not know where I am going wrong.

Using an Acer laptop with Windows 8, the version of SH3 is downloaded via Steam and works fine.

Thanks in advance.

Use 7-zip, much better all round.

If it is downloaded from this page then you do need 7-zip.

But if it also says that the file cannot be extracted then you probably have a corrupt download. The file SH3Cmdr32.exe in it, as it is, should be able to execute. You may need to redownload it

I agree with the both of the above.....7z is the best and the download is probably bad.

SH3Commander 3.2 exe http://www.mediafire.com/?v8hgs2wkr53psmq
