System Requirements

Q: I do not have alot of free hard disk space on my computer.  If I download your Unzip Wizard software and install it on my PC, how much disk space will it take up?

A: There are two parts to your question, although you really only asked one question.

First, when you download the INSTALLATION module from our Web site, that software is approximately 850,000 bytes (850kb).  The installation module is named something like UNZIP32-301.EXE (the numbers may vary, depending on which version you are downloading).  This file is a temporary file, and is used only to INSTALL The Unzip Wizard.   Once you have finished installing The Unzip Wizard, you can delete the INSTALLATION MODULE from your hard disk, freeing up the 850kb.

Secondly, when you successfully have installed The Unzip Wizard, the files that the Unzip Wizard require will take up roughly 1 megabyte of hard disk space.  These files should never be deleted.

Q: Will The Unzip Wizard word on Windows XP?

A: Create A Quiz will work with ALL versions of Windows...95, 98, ME, XP, NT, 2000, etc...
