The bit in Joanna Newsom's "Ys" where she goes 'and miss / and miss / and miss / and miss / and miss / and miss / and miss / and miss your heart' and the strings are swelling and then you get that little slide at the end of it might be one of the best things that has ever happened in music

Uh, don't you just double click on it like any other file? Is he using Windows XP?

you can't run every type of file from inside a zip, and sometimes you need to extract the whole thing, not just the .exe that launches whatever was inside

It does so in the background anyway - when you double click an exe in a zip file it silently extracts the whole damn thing to a temp directory and runs it from there.
I had to explain this to a senior engineer at my company who wondered "why not just double clicking a file from within a Zip file that sits on a server on the other side of the world"?

Would it still do that if the zip was in a temp folder?

Not sure, but I imagine it would.

In any case, what he tried doing was to extract the exe, and none of the other stuff, then running the exe that now wasn't in the same folder as everything else
