8,049 PointsHmm, I've tried 10 times or more, now I'm wondering what's wrong with my machine... I see the zipped file size as 10kb.
Windows cannot complete the extraction.
The compressed (zipped) Folder 'C:\spoiler_complete.zip' is invalid.

39,199 PointsMight be related to this bug I reported last month regarding project files on the How to Make a Website project here:
https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/img-folder-wont-load-into-workspace
As I'm on Windows 7 using the compressed folder feature built into Windows Explorer, it shows no files. However in 7-zip on the same system inside the same zip folder it see's a folder with no name inside of which their are the files.
