   I have downloaded KeyRemapper19-dk3c57 several times. File sizes vary in a narrow range around 5.4 MB. None of my extraction utilities (WinZip, 7-Zip, ExpressZip, or Windows 7) can unzip it. What can you suggest?

   Your problem isn't with extracting the file, it's in getting a complete download. The file should be 6.5 MB; you're only getting 5.4 MB.

   I'd first try using different browser or using a download manager (or not using if you normally use one).

   Chris, thanks for the good suggestion... but I have tried in Chrome, Firefox, and IE (all current versions) and none worked. I'm still getting zip files in the 5.4 MB range. BTW, the setup file direct from the publisher's site is under 2 MB, and it installed KeyRemapper successfully -- but I don't have the GOTD registration key. :-(

   The GOTD download is larger than the publisher's version because it also has the GOTD wrapper.

   Since it's not browser specific I'd first run a malware and virus scan.

   It also might be a problem with the site. The last time I looked the US site loads a bunch more scripts than some of the others and one of those scripts might be causing your problem. So, you might try using a different GOTD site than you have been using by changing the language at the top of the page; or use one of the sites noted in this post I don't use social media for a direct file link.

   Thanks again, Chris. It must have been a problem with the network or security at my work, because the download and installation went well when I did at at home. :-)
