    Download issue

    I'm getting an issue trying to download several files.

    I went to download an update Milton posted in the Douglas A-20 thread ( A-20G Reflective Model for Bare Metal Paints - post #229 ) and the file appears on my computer as a .php format.

    This has happened several times lately when I try to download from a thread.

    It's been since I had the computer reformatted and everything was reinstalled.

    Downloading from the Warbirds Library and other download sites ( Avsim & Flightsim ) there's no problem as the files are in a normal .zip format.

    Can someone help me please?

    Thanks,

    Pete.

    If the file is an attachment in a post, I always "save as", pick the destination, rename it, and then save it.

    The key is to rename it before saving it to your directory. If you rename it as a ZIp file it will work just fine.

    If at first you don't succeed, try, try,try again. ... or go read the manual.
