Post by: Aminux on January 04, 2006, 04:52:09 PM
I got this error while trying to unzip a file:

 skipping: Mask2.zip     need PK compat. v2.1 (can do v2.0)


 I´m using the latest unzip for Os3x,so what else can i do?

 I tried Xadmaster plus MuiUnarc,but it when to try unarchive the zip file it just says unknown format file.
 Weird it is.

You might want to try copying it over to a PC and see if any of the PC zip programs can make sense of it. If this zip is within another zip, maybe this one is corrupt. You wouldn't know at first because the bigger package was okay. But when you try to unzip the zip inside, no go. I've had it happen before.

PKZip can compress in modes that other Zip tools can't handle AFAIK. So you might need to use PKZip to decompress it.
