My Vista OS quit working. Therefor i Downloaded Ubuntu, but I can not downlaod any files.

Asked by Aaron Reed

When i try to download files i receive this error:

/tmp/WarhammerOnlineInstaller.exe
[/tmp/WarhammerOnlineInstaller.exe]
  End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
  a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
  latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
  the last disk(s) of this archive.
zipinfo: cannot find zipfile directory in one of /tmp/WarhammerOnlineInstaller.exe or
          /tmp/WarhammerOnlineInstaller.exe.zip, and cannot find /tmp/WarhammerOnlineInstaller.exe.ZIP, period.

What do i need to do?

Please also tell what are you trying to do... ?

The exe files need to be run under wine... you must install it from software center

Then using nautilus please be sure to open the file with wine...

Can you help with this problem?
