The install file you download is a Winzip self-extracting exe setup file and when executed it comes as far as to present the form with a "Setup" button. When this is clicked the application thinks for a while and then disappears... Since it was the selfextracting type I used 7zip to open it as an archive and fould a number of files including an msi. So I extracted them all to an empty folder and ran the msi instead. Then the installation proceeded. Very strange. One wonders if the WinZip people really tested the installer on Win7X64??? And I used the WinZip support form to enter two issues, but there is absolutely no response! No good support in my view. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
