Windows Blocked Files
This one comes with a story. I downloaded a file from the US Census Bureau at work. I tried a few ways to unzip the file, but kept getting the error below:
However, when following the instructions to unblock the file, it doesn’t work. I ultimately copied the file over to my trusty MacBook Pro and tried (by double-clicking on it), to no avail. Then, I opened up Terminal (which has its own space on the dock on my Mac), and unzipped it with a minor complaint. After this, I talked to our IT consultant, who also tried to unblock the file, and while he could get the instructions, he did not have an unblock button (which wouldn’t have worked).
