2,908 Pointsupload the website problem downloading workspace
When I download work space to my computer, it does not download as a zip file and I cannot open it. I do not know what to do. Has this happened to anyone and if it did what did you do?

Dylan Dixon
947 PointsUm, what does it download as then?

Dylan Dixon
947 PointsOh um, it might be in the beginning or something.
When I go to the video there's no workspace download :/

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 17,797 PointsThis problem was fixed for me by going into my my finder and changing the file name from download to download.zip after I did this my computer somehow realized it was a compressed file and now every thing is working. Ha
