How do you unzip the downloaded [Elements](https://elementsapp.io/) file? No matter what I do, the unzipped file doesn’t save to any location I select. Is there an issue with the zipped download file? I’ve tried BetterZip and that doesn’t help. When I use the archive utility, I get an error message “94” “bad message.” I would download it again except I can’t seem to find it on the Real Mac Software site. ---

Thank you! I guess it was a bad file somehow. This worked fine. Nothing obvious about the file - same size and so forth. All is well now.
