wINRAR and WINZIP 12.0
I just downloaded these 2 files. I cannot get them to execute/install. Please help me! thanks!

winzip and winrar are for windows. Not for linux. To unzip a file just use the unzip command or from ubuntu desktop you can just click on the zip file and choose to extract here. To unzip a rar file just install the unrar package. NOTE that for ubuntu you need to add the MULTIVERSE repository.

zip files are supported by default install unrar package for .rar files and p7zip for 7 zip files

"AdbeRdr9.1.2-1_i486linux_enu.bin%20(2)" cannot be opened No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file. "npjp2_linux_jasper_pthread.so" cannot be opened No application is known for this kind of file. "RealPlayer11GOLD.bin%20(2)" cannot be opened No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file. |
to run the bin files you must first make the execuable by doing
Code:
sudo chmod 755 ./AdbeRdr9.1.2-1_i486linux_enu.bin%20(2) Code:
sudo ./AdbeRdr9.1.2-1_i486linux_enu.bin%20(2) |
Yes those are similar to your .exe files on windows .It cannot be extracted there either (i mean exe)
You execute it . to do that try the thing s siad in above post |
But why do things the old windows way? Never heard of a package manager? You can probably install all of those with a few clicks from your operating system, without searching the internet and downloading all sorts of stuff that you hope is not infected with some sort of malware.
