Error: File Exists
« on: October 01, 2007, 05:33:47 pm »
I was trying to extract a file from a zip file...
And I got this error message: "The file exists."
I re-downloaded it just in case, and the same error came up.
I tried extracting it in multiple places... nothing.

Get an old version of winrar, it pwns. It might just be a simple change of extract folder might solve the problem.

To sum up my point: We had a multipage debate about toilet padding. (Putting TP in the water so you don't get splashed.)
And we still don't know if dead guys can keep a stiffy.

That is the funniest, tightest error message ever! Usually, they don't make any sense. That one just seems frustrating, but looking at it from another point of view, that it complete uber.

No, Winrar or Clickteam installers have this bug sometimes when program try to overwrite file that already copied, just error when unpacking in almost every possible installer, archiver, lucky is random and because cofused with system  ;)
