[$XVG] VERGE [POW][MultiAlgo][TOR/i2P][no premine/ico!]

my posts were deleted also all i want is my investment back that i lost in my android wallet.

for the, i dont know, maybe fourth time, anyone with coins in the android wallet can just pull them out by getting the privatekey from their android wallet phrase using the coinomi tool until it is back online from being updated to multi algo.

sheesh.

i managed to get the new openssl compiled for windows finally, so i should be able to get this wallet update out shortly.

You guys are idiots! if you upload a .rar file for the love of god don't change it to .zip because that's annoying, it causes the downloader to spend 11 hours trying to figure out why it won't decompress. don't be a dumbass and change the extension. if it's a .rar UPLOAD IT as a .rar

the wallet .zip and the blockchain .zip windows 7 native zip archiver won't open it, says it's not a zip file, after hours of screwing with it I figured out it's a .rar file and you changed the extension from .rar to .zip before uploading. change it back to .rar and reupload it plz.

verge-qt-win.zip needs to me renamed to verge-qt-win.rar and reuploaded.
same with the blockchain one. you're not the only coin that did this, it seems every one of them do that and it's annoying. don't change the file extension, keep the correct file extension.

uhmm.. im pretty sure its a winrar .zip archive and not actually a .rar file..  if you are having issues with alot of files "seeming" to be .zip's but they appear to be .rar's, you should get winrar or 7zip..

well that's what you did wrong, use winzip, not winrar. winrar zip archives are actually rar archives. you have to change the file extension to .rar and use universal extractor, universal extractor and windows native zip utility detects it as a .rar. use winzip. winrar is useless to windows users.

thats completely bizarre. im a native linux user, but i have been using windows for a long time. i guess you learn something new every day =]

I always use 7zip on windows, but, with that being said, I still feel like someone who is complaining about what many coins are doing (and no one else ever complains about the same thing) must be doing something retarded.

yeah to be honest, i dont think i ever used the native windows zip extractor. i probably installed 7zip n winrar the first day.

The problem is a matter of specification support across different utilities. Winzip, Winrar, and Windows native extractor all consider a slightly different subset of supported file specifications as "standard". Its an age-old nightmare that has plagued windows based compression tools for decades.

Best practice for the creation of compressed archives is to avoid creation using these spin-off programs and instead use a basic CLI utility. On linux this process is very easy as GNU compression utilities are fairly standard AND conservative in their file specs.

I would actually use the native one due to laziness for a long time, but I found out due to Huntercoin blockchain bootstrap that it doesn't work for zip files larger than like 4-6 GB - it just silently fails and unzips corrupt files, so 7zip ever since then.

I'm kinda stuck on windows, some of the coins I mine are only available as windows QT wallets, their sources are visual studio project files, written in visual C languages with a QT type interface so even cross compiling them on linux isn't even possible.

I think that dev who does not pay attention to source that can be compiled on UNIX/Linux should not be developing coins on the first place.

Nah just people compressing a file as a rar archive and changing the extension to .zip making it impossible to decompress without knowing the file format. hell just today I downloaded a file with a .zip extension, wouldn't unzip, universal extractor wouldn't even work, changed it to .rar, still no luck, didn't work as .tar either, took me over 90 attempts to figure out it was .tgz and the dev changed it to .zip to be a dick. it was a blockchain file. Look if ya have to change the file extension to get your host to accept it, atleast say something in the ann like "Yo, my file host only allows .zip files so you have to change the extension to .tgz or whatever to unzip it" it only takes a second, and it's the polite thing to do. it avoids annoying people.

there could be many reasons, like only having one computer, with windows, or having a family that shares a computer, or is unfamiliar with GNU operating systems, there's alot of reasons, and personally I find it irritating. to say the least. Linux sources are superior cause .proj files are chained to the version of visual studio that created them (most devs don't list the version of visual studio they did the build on). what I'd like to see are some guidelines regarding what kinds of projects can be announced here. projects should also have to be capable of being cross platform built to be hosted here. things like misnaming file extensions should also be looked down on. also ICO's, there's no reason someone needs to run an ICO for 180 days like that one cryptonote coin, that goes from reasonable to pump N dump. this community needs a huge policy overhaul. the policies we have in place worked 5 years ago, but nowadays scammers have gotten smarter, more clever. the amounts of money ICO scammers get away with is just crazy, like one guy got nearly $30,000 dollars worth of bitcoin. the coin tanked. we need better oversight really.

man.. Winrar should be standard on every Windows computer.
Install it, and i'll bet you never will see that problem again

I have winrar, winzip, universal extractor, file roller, windows native zip. and none of them work if you change the file extension on the file lol. the file still has to have the correct file extension, for instance file.tar.gz can't be renamed to file.zip it has to be correct.
