General instructions for downloading

The files that Microsoft posts on online services are usually compressed, self-extracting files.


Note Small files may not be compressed. These files appear with their original extensions and are not self-extracting.

32-bit and 64-bit operating systems

For more information about identifying 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Windows files (.exe)

Files that are designed for Windows operating systems have an .exe extension. These files are compressed, self-extracting files. To correctly download and extract these .exe files, follow these steps:

  1. Locate the file that you want to download. If you are not sure which file to download, you can visit the Microsoft Download Center to help locate your file:

    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/Search.aspx

  2. If you are downloading to a disk, you must have a formatted, blank disk. If you are downloading to your hard disk drive, create a new folder where you can temporarily copy the file and open it.

    Caution Do not download files directly to your Windows folder. Doing this could overwrite files that are required for the correct operation of your computer.

  3. Follow the download procedure that is used by your Internet service provider to download the file that you identified in step 1. Download the file to a disk or to a new folder.

  4. Locate the file in the folder where it was downloaded, and then double-click the file to begin the installation process.

Be aware that some .exe files are compressed by using the PKWare file-compression utility. To correctly download and to extract these .exe files, follow these steps:

  1. Locate the file that you want to download. If you are not sure which file to download, you can visit the Microsoft Download Center to help locate your file:

  3. Follow the download procedure that is used by your Internet service provider to download the file that you identified in step 1. Download the file to a disk or to a new folder.

  4. To extract the contents of the self-extracting .exe file after you download it, click Start, click Run, and then type the following command:

    <path\filename> -dIn this command, <path\filename> is the folder location and the name of the downloaded file.

    For example, if you downloaded Sample.exe to the C:\Download folder, type the following command:

    C:\Download\Sample.exe -dNote Although you can double-click a self-extracting .exe file to extract its contents, this step makes sure that a recursively compressed file will maintain its file structure.

If you have problems extracting downloaded files, try downloading them again.

Archive files (.zip)

Files that are designed to archive multiple files have a .zip extension. These files are compressed. Such .zip files are automatically compressed and expanded in Windows XP and in Windows Vista operating systems, and such files do not have to use the WinZip utility.

For more information about WinZip, please visit the following Nico Mak Computing, Inc., Web site:

  4. To extract the contents of the self-extracting .exe file after you download it, click Start, click Run, and then type the following command:

    <path\filename> -dIn this command, <path\filename> is the folder location and the name of the downloaded file.

    For example, if you downloaded Sample.exe to the C:\Download folder, type the following command:

    C:\Download\Sample.exe -dNote Although you can double-click a self-extracting .exe file to extract its contents, this step makes sure that a recursively compressed file will maintain its file structure.

If you have problems extracting downloaded files, try downloading them again.

Macintosh-based files (.hqx, .bin, or .sea)

If a file is a Macintosh-based file, it has an .hqx or a .bin extension. An .hqx file is a BinHex 4.0 text-formatted file, and a .bin file is a MacBinary-formatted file.

When you download the .hqx or the .bin file, you must decode it with Aladdin Systems Stuffit Expander for Windows or with another utility that understands the BinHex or the MacBinary format, such as BinHex 4.0 or CompactPro. Decoding converts the .hqx or the .bin file into an Installer file. As soon as the file is converted to an Installer file, you can double-click the Installer file to install its contents.

The .hqx or the .bin file may also be decoded into a binary-formatted, compressed .sea file. To extract the contents of this file, double-click the <filename>.sea icon.
