friggin zip file

from WinCustomize Forums

I had to download one of my blinds today and it downloaded as a zip, not wba, file.

Is anything being done to correct this or are we just suppose to suck eggs and move on.

It does seem rhetorical, doesn't it.

"If the value isn't there, don't spend your money" I can accept that and save my subscription money.

Wiz I have to say that I am admittedly a horribly cheap-a**-b**t**d and even I feel that under the current pricing structure the value is there for the WC sub, warts and all.  I'm so cheap, in fact, that I'd take the current arrangement with some warts over a more expensive wart-less version.  Now I'm not wanting to minimize any issues or whatever, I guess I'm just saying "I like affordable, please keep it that way, I've got warts too." ;)

I guess that means you have no reciprocal agreements with MS? just asking not accusing.

Seriously, what are you talking about?

Agreement for what?

It was something, I believe, you said when there were some silverlight threads back when. I thought I remember something regarding a partnership with MS, whatever that might be, I wouldn't know beyond that.

It looks like they have found a possible fix, but it will need to be deployed on the site in the next couple of days.

Thanks for keeping us posted, ID. Judging by some recent posts, the problem is starting to confuse even long time members. A fix would be most welcome. :thumbsup:

UPDATE: I just downloaded 2 WB's that had arrived as zips before. Now, not only does it show up as a .wba, there is the option to open or save it after clicking the download button. Awesomeness, guys, I've wanted that ability for like, forever! Whatever changes are being made, they are certainly in the right direction.

 Thank you, web guys!!!

Looks like I'll be renewing my sub after all. :blush:

Wouldn't you know it, just when you get used to things working as they were someone comes along and changes them.  :-"

.wba and .suite files are ok now. IconPackager files still get changed to .zip but I'm reasonably certain this too will be addressed. Again, thanks Stardock, for looking into this and finding a solution. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
