Community IDE password

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Beginners Area/Community IDE password

I just attempted to download the Community version of the IDE and when I went to extract it to my BMAX main folder it says its password
protected. Is this correct ?

What password do I need to enter if so ?

as always a newbie in need .

Are you sure you are downloading the right ZIP archive?

I just downloaded it from here:

http://downloads.sourceforge.net/blitzmax-ide/maxide2-win-2.00b4.zip?use_mirror=osdn

And it extracted fine... Are you on Windows XP? Are you using the built-in compressed folder explorer extension or are you using a separate compression utility such as WinRAR or WinZip?

I have WinRAR but just havent re installed it yet.

I am using the current built in compressed folder extraction, should I use WinRar instead ?

Thanks

odd - it shouldn't need a password...I certainly didn't set one!

I just installed WinRar and tried it again -- worked without a password

Thanks
Rod

I wonder if it has a blank password set, and windows doesn't like it, but archive apps like winrar are okay? Ah well, it's working now, which is good!

Thanks Mark...

I posted a question about it not finding some imported modules
when I try to run some of the example 3D sdk files

Could you please let me know about that -- forry to be a pain
