After installing wsh57, the windows explorer pops up and the downloaded file is not deleted. This makes installing already much easier. I wonder if extracting fails because the downloaded file is renamed: osc[v0.2~git20181006](Windows-amd64-32).dek -> osc[v0.2~git20181006](Windows-amd64-32).dek.zip Somewhere a .zip extension is appended to filename, .zip files end up with .zip.zip. > in the meantime i've added a deken-preference flag that prevents the > downloaded package file from being deleted after a "successfull" > installation. > https://github.com/pure-data/deken/ Thanks for that and also for having a look at this in general. I use Pd in Wine purely for testing, so I can easily live with the current situation. But it's good to know the reason why Wine is different from Windows. Roman
