Thanks Derek.
It would be great to get to the bottom of the Unzip SFX issues, because it's
such a frequently reported matter as well as of course the importance of
being able to use Unzip to move files between QLs and emulators or the
internet and emulators.

From the comments I get, I'd say you are probably the only one who
doesn't!
It seems to affect those with the least experience to sort it out,
unfortunately. And it usually fails on emulators or other systems with
level 2 filing systems, for reasons I don't yet understand. Sadly, the
people it affects often have the least experience to be able to clearly
explain the problem, hence why I created this halfway house solution to
getting a first copy of Unzip onto a system. Once that's achieved, then
you can use the created Unzip to decompress the complete Unzip SFX archive
if you want the full set of files.
From the reports on the SFX, it seems to get as far as when it tells you
to
run the program it sets up in RAMdisk, but then fails miserably at that
point.

Hi Diwyn,
I only use QPC2 these days, this seems to be fairly stable.
But I will look at UQLX to see what the problems are.
