Re: Crazy Party: mini-games and card battle! (beta58)
I redownloaded again, since if the problem occurred again we knew how to fix it. I first tried to extract from the folder. Only the changelog was copied before it acted like the copy was finished and I could enter the folder. This happened previously too, although in that case I deleted the file folder, thinking the process was done. I didn't do this again, but instead restarted (thankfully without incident) and extracted the folder from the zip of an earlier version of CP (Beta 56, the last one I downloaded). This extraction worked just fine. So it's the download that is not cooperating, not the extraction process in general, which was what I was fearing. I don't know why this is the case, but I can't deny the results of my testing.
To clarify what exactly happened, as I was somewhat frazzled when I made the previous post, I got an error saying a file path was unavailable twice when I tried to back out of the Crazy Party folder during the initial extraction, and closed the folder window before reopening it again. Things seemed normal but the copying process fared no better than the automatic extraction did in that I only got the changelog into the folder. So I restarted and heard the critical error sound for my computer (in this case, a very loud foghorn blast). My mum read me the error and it said something like the file path for my desktop (which I had not in any way messed with) was unavailable, and might be on another drive (which it was not). She was able to access the control panel and perform a system recovery to April 7, which was the most recent restore point, and everything went back to normal once that process was complete. I still do not know for sure that the Crazy Party download did this, but the fact that it still resists extraction when other zip files do not tells me that it has issues I do not know how to solve and I'm not going to mess with it further.
