When I try to download the Jinn conversion from the tain, it saves on my hard drive but when I try to open it windows says that the file is invalid.

I'm not sure if the previous zip file had compatibility problems, but I went ahead and recompressed it, and replaced the file on the server. The new zip file is even a little bit smaller.

You can try downloading it again, and see if that file works. Or you can try using a different program to unzip the file you downloaded before.

The new Discovery download also appears to be invalid/corrupt. I tried StuffIt in addition to whatever Windows uses for zips by default, but had no better luck.

I've recompressed Discovery. Should work now.

The moral of the story is: don't use Deflate64 when compressing zips.
