Fred,

The answer is that Windows probably recently automatically updated – and knocked out the registration of the ZIP routines with Windows. This happens regularly enough that I supplied the notice you cited as to how to fix it (i.e. uninstall/re-install, OR check to be sure you are running as Administrator, if Vista).

Before doing that, however, try this other fix (also supplied for the same purpose): on your RDSS folder, find the file named REGDLL.BAT (a Windows Batch File). Double-click it to run it. If it succeeds, you’ll see a message as follows:


Name:  regdll.gif

Try RDSS again to see if the ZIP library works now. If not, then go ahead and uninstall then reinstall.

Let me know how it works. Next version will use a ZIP library which Windows cannot tamper with during its periodic updates.

Yours,

Ted
