Courses Plus Student 11,182 PointsHaving trouble downloading my workspace
I have been working on a project in my tree house workspace and now I am ready to put it onto a server to test and finish development. Unfortunately when I try to download my workspace my computer tells me that I don't have a program to download it. To overcome this I just copy and pasted the html files and saved the image files and kind of duplicated the file tree but this is sorta time consuming. Is there a better way? I am using windows 7

I just tried using google chrome on windows 7 and it worked fine. It also worked in IE (just select open when prompted at the bottom of the browser window)

Courses Plus Student 11,182 Pointsya its odd, I tried it on my work computer and it worked fine (windows XP) but when I'm using my computer the normal zip file stuff doesn't pop up.

David Jarrin
Courses Plus Student 11,182 PointsChrome in both cases. Not at my home computer at the moment but is it possible my computer doesn't have winzip pre-installed on it?
