I suggest you try running WINRAR in administrator mode (and maybe even with
XP compatability). It sounds like you don't have write permissions on the
directory you are trying to copy the files too.
Hope that helps.

Right click on the WINRAR icon, and go to Properties (last item on the
menu). Click the Compatibility tab, and click both "Run this program in
compatibility mode" for Windows XP and the "Run this program as an
administrator" options. Then click OK, and start it. You should get a UAC
prompt. Click through it and when WINRAR starts, open your archive file.
I'm pretty sure you should then be able to unpack to the Program Files
directory tree now.
BTW, running an app in an administrator account is not the same as running
an app with administrator privelages. I know it makes no sense, but that's
the way it is with apps not designed to work with Vista's new Use Account
Control.
Let us know if it this works.

Anything installed into Program Files is "PROTECTED" (Mainly from
Viruses and programs that should NOT be saving files in Program Files),
so you can right-click WinRAR and run as admin, or you can install TW2K
into another folder like C:\Games
That'll elliminate the problem altogether.
Welcome to Vista Security, enjoy the cake.

Try using a different program to unzip the files. Did you attempt to extract
with the default windows program? If so then try again with 7-ZIP (free, no
spyware). If that still doesn't work go into the USER control panel and make
sure you have FULL administrative rights.
Another thing to try is to manually create that directory and then tell the
extraction wizard to extract there. If all of the above fail then try a drag
and drop extraction without using any wizard. If you're still having
problems let us know. As Joe said, don't bump, this is not a forum.

its really simple. the default is windows explorer.
to get back at that, you open your command prompt
to get there go start > all programs > accessories > command prompt
there type:
cmd /c assoc .zip=CompressedFolder
this should work.
