Guest Rustom Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 I have a generic issue with my Windows Server 2003 system. I have obtained a zip file and everytime I attempt to unzip the file, Windows Blocks the setup.exe file. The message states right click the file and check unblock, however the setup.exe file dissappears when the all the files are unzipped, therefore, I cannot right click it. How do I turn this annoying blocker off?
Guest Ryan Hanisco Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 RE: Blocked Files Hi Rustom, I think there is a toggle on the message in the bottom corner of the box. Have a look there. Besides, it isn't a good practice to install from a zip so you may consider unzipping to a temp location to get around this anyway. -- Ryan Hanisco MCSE, MCTS: SQL 2005, Project+ http://www.techsterity.com Chicago, IL Remember: Marking helpful answers helps everyone find the info they need quickly.
