Hi Shirley, Like others have said, it would be better if you saved my WinKit.zip file and then ran it and let it create the Kitchensinc folder in the program files area. All of the rest of my games unzip to that folder by default and then it is very very easy to use my Kitchensinc game menu f

Actually charles, you can uninstall fine because the uninstall files are usually just put in the games' folder separately from the setup files, or the games' already been written to the registry so you can just use add/remove programs. I keep most things on a backup external drive, and w

Hello, It is almost always better to save rather than run from a web page. This can help with viruses if your antivirus package automatically scans all files which have been downloaded. Whether or not your antivirus does this, it is a good habbit to train yourself to do. The reason is because

Hi, When you press Run, the program won't start instantly as the site has to download the file to a temporary spot on your computer, then it will run, and you can install the game. Actually, I don't run the program directly at all, but instead choose the "Save" button, then select a download

hi Shirly. It's simple. either select save if you want to keep the setup file (I recommend doing this), or select run. The file will then download, which might take a while (some of draconis' games are bigger than jims). Then, once downloaded, an install wizard will start up, asking you

You have to choose 'save' not 'run' as an option, the game needs to be installed on your pc, therefore you have to save it first and then run the installer. Shirley Starblanket wrote: > Well Thomas, if Draconus' games were like Jim's, then I could download them. When I press enter on download I

Hi Shirley, Ah, I see. What you are suppose to do with the Draconis games is save them to your computer, like your Documents directory, and then run the setup file from there. So if you get a dialog to run, save, or cancel the game press enter on save rather than run or cancel. I think this is

Hi Shirley, I'm sorry, but what does unzipping them have to do with downloading them? The Draconis games are standard Windows setup files where Jim's games are self-extracting setup files. It shouldn't make a difference in downloading them. Can you explain more about your problem here? Cheers
