Can't install portabl apps

Hi there,

for some reason I can't install portable apps on my 4gb astone usb stick. It comes up with:

#0 PortablApps_Suite_Standard_1.0.exe is not supported archive.

the error message is from 7-zip

I've tried both the light and the standard version, both won't work. I had tried to put portable apps on a few weeks ago and it worked fine, so don't know what's wrong now.

Any ideas?

Thanks
kabo

Re-download

Re-download the file and try again. It's most likely a corrupt download.

use windows compression client to unzip it("Compressed/Zipped Folders").

How is that going to work!?

The suite is compressed with 7-Zip using LZMA compression into a self-extracting executable. The zipping software built into Windows can't open or extract the files.

when did that happen!!

when did we have to unzip it using 7-zip. last time i downloaded it ws jus in a regular .zip format. (if you cant install the PAM then download 7-zip in the paf and install it to folder on your desktop and use that version to decompress the file.
