When I tried to unzip D3Digitimes's Iray Converter for Generation 4 with WinZip, I repeatedly received error messages stating that "The system cannot find the path specified. Cannot create . . ."  The message continues with the directory and the file name of the file that cannot be created. Has anyone had a similar experience with this product? Can any one suggest a solution? A few pics attached. Thanks to all.

    Don't have that product but have certainly encountered the situation.

    1. Make sure the zip is not read only. W10 tends to like making folders read only.
    2. Those names are way too long. Each additional folder also being part of the name.
    3. Rename the zip to something very short and have it on the Desktop. To eliminate all the additional folders in the path, unzip it to an empty folder on the Desktop.
    4. Then search through and copy all the folder contents to their appropriate places.

    Hope this helps. It tends to the general solution for dealing with any content for anything with super long names in W10.
