    Exclamation Corrupted Zip File Problem

    Lately, i have been trying to download a few games from here and i've been getting the same problem everytime i try to open the zip file i downloaded from here when it's finished downloading: It tells me it's corrupted. Meaning i cannot look into it's contents at all. This has happened with, not just PS1 roms, but with many others, like DS, PS2, NES and GBA.

    I use WinRAR to open files and i've tried downloading them with IE, Firefox and Chrome. I even tried the DepositFiles links and tried downloading with JDownloader. All leading to the same problem.

    Is there a reason why? Because i'm trying to find these games in other sites when this happens and, due to Megaupload and Snesorama being gone, finding things is quite limited.

    They're probably corrupted as stated. I don't know if the files that you downloaded has recovery record, if it does, then you can possibly fix the corrupted file.
    And from my past experience, corrupted zip file also occurred due to incomplete or incorrect download. So, it could be any of these.
