Question asked on Sep 24, 2013
I have a 409MB zip file on SkyDrive, it is not in a directory. When I click it a download starts. I cannot open the zip on SkyDrive. The resulting download of the zip file will not open When I click on it I get a message that says "invalid zip." I have tried IE9 and Chrome. The full 409 MB downloads fine. The downloaded file won't open.

Windows 7 64 bit

I will be happy to share the zip on SkyDrive with you if you think that would help--let me know how to share it with you off the forum. Thanks.

Michael
