  1. System doesn't let me extract my hard drive


    I can't use the "Extract device" option in Windows, it always say it's in use by another program. When I checked with Process Explorer and other detailed "task managers", filtering by its Device Letter, I didn't find any process using it. So I decided to check my Event Logs, specially in the System folder.

    Extracting Zip Files


    Are the step-by-step processes identical? That is, the folder extracted from and the folder extracted to belong to the same hierarchical file system structure. If they are, that suggests mildly the Cumulative Update left an electron or two out of place.

    Extracting Zip Files


    Thanks pyramid10 for your contribution, I ensured that the steps taken and the source and destination folders were the same, in the using zip7 as suggested by BunnyJ resolved all issues for me.
    I am the first to admit that I am a long long way from understanding the intricacies of computers and if truth be told I am now to old anyway to absorb much information.
    Cheers.
