My windows 7 will not automatically open the zip file.  In getting the patch, downloading and click open folder, it asks what program I want to open it in.  What should I put to open?


Right click on the DJ_Patch.zip file and select Open With then select Windows Explorer.  I updated the post here with a screen shot.

Thanks so much.  I am so stupid, I didn't register IE as Internet Explorer.   Now I will try it on my other computer.  Thanks again.

Selfish perhaps, but now that my issue was solved for the HP 1000C deskjet how do I arrange to stop receiving emails about traffic on this website?

Thanks for making this compputer printer work.  However, i need the original solution for my other computer.  I need the "download the patch by clicking on this link.  Thanks

Cannot download the Patch through your site on my Acer computer.  Worked on my HP Laptop with your instructions. I know what to do after I get the DJ_Patch.  Thanks

What you and others who no longer need updates to this issue need to do is change your subscription to this thread.  The procedure for this is described in the thread here:  How to stop emails alerting you to forum replies.

You may have some security settings in your browser that is preventing it from downloading on your Acer.  If you have downloaded the patch to another computer you could copy it to a USB drive to transfer it to your Acer or perhaps use a network share.
