Aerosoft F-16 Fighting Falcon ZIP File

Recommended Posts

Hi - I'm new to the forum and was looking for a little help.  I recently purchased and downloaded the Aerosoft F-16 Fighting Falcon but when I go to extract the ZIP file using 7 ZIP, I get the following error message:

I've followed the vendor's recommendation for deleting the temporary internet files and re-downloading the file several times but with no luck.  I was hoping maybe someone had run into the same problem and knows of a fix.

 

Thanks.

Try another zip program or try windows built in?

7Zip is what I use also.  Using Firefox as my ISP I have 2 locations setup for downloads.  The

 

download folder and also straight to my desktop.  I generally clear the downloads folder

 

and work with the Zip file on the desktop.  I double-click the zip and it then shows the

 

full folder stored inside.  I highlight that folder and use COPY, so it's then copied to

 

my desktop.  Done with the Zip file so that's deleted and I work with the folder that's left.

Thanks for the replies - I downloaded the zip file straight to my desktop using Firefox (I was using Chrome) and was able to unzip it successfully.  Now when I try to install using my email address and the serial number provided by the software vendor, it tells me the serial number or email is incorrect.  I've contacted the software vendor hoping they can help resolve the issue.

 

Thanks again.

Make sure you enter the e-mail exactly as the one registered with Aerosoft, capital letters and so on. I had the same problem because I registered my e-mail with a capital letter which I normally dont use.
