so say i downloaded photoshop through ares, and i unzipped it into winzip (although of course i didnt, because that might count as piracy whistling.gif), how would i go about installing it from there? because i cant figure it out...

lol riiiight rolleyes.gif j/k
when you unzip it, there should be an installer or setup application ending in .exe. that should take you through the installation process and just follow the steps.

i dont think thats the problem, becuase ive tried other programs from ares as well as other more reliable programs and i always get the same thing. i went through everyone of those things and never got to something that actually helped. i clicked the right one, right?

if you have P2P, there should be somewhere where your files go into, right? when i got mine, i just extracted the zip file and opened the file and it had instructions there *shrug*

i'm not sure, each photoshop bundle is different, depending on the host. mine came with instructions.

...... Have you tried using setup.ins? Just wondering, because installation files don't remain on the comp, so I don't think they'd end .exe somehow. But I could be very off.

ok extract all the files to a certain folder on your computer .. like you can make a photoshop folder in your my documents section then use winzip to extract them to there

then you extract them .. then you go to start>>my documents>>w/e the name the folder is
and click setup from there
it should then work

open the .zip file. if there is a .nfo file in it, then open that .nfo file with the notepad. the .nfo file should have instructions. if there are .iso or .cue files inside the .zip then you need to burn the .iso or .cue onto a cd.
