Downloaded file corrupt [SOLVED]
« on: February 10, 2015, 08:27:28 am »
So, this morning i tried to use the sfml 2.2 for 64 bit. When i ran the test program i wrote, it told me that i should use the 32 bit version. So i downloaded the 32 bit version, but when i tried to extract it, winrar said

!   C:\Users\Axel\Downloads\SFML-2.2-windows-vc10-32-bit.zip: The archive is either in unknown format or damaged
 

Help?

The files aren't corrupted on our servers. You can check your downloaded version against the MD5 oder SHA1 hashes.

Additionally you can try 7z or another unpacking tool.

I dont really understand how i could fix this thought. When i try to open the zip file with 7zip, it doesnt recognize it as an archive.

You might want to try and disable your anti virus software, since these can sometimes block some stuff and the software might only notice it as "corrupted".

Otherwise, here's another mirror of the file.

I repacked it as 7z if that doesn't work it's most definitely something on your end.

Sadly that doesnt work either. It seems it works with any other version of sfml thought. What do you suggest i should do in that case?

It all would bring me back to your AV. The SFML packages ship with the examples as executable. Some AV might raise a false positive on them and thus blocking the whole unpacking.

How do you know that? Have you disabled it and tried again?
