    Hi, I've tried pulling down the zip file on Windows 7, and Windows 8.1 machines today, but they both report that the zip file is 'invalid' when I attempt to unzip the files.
    https://sourceforge.net/projects/kp-googlesync/files/latest/download?source=files

    As a reality check, I was able to pull a similar zip down from another SF project and it unzipped without an issue.

    Suggestions?

      I am using 7-zip 9.20 and have no problems.
      Is your downloaded file exactly 739.929 bytes big? Do you have any virus scanners active that may block the file for some reason?

    Size shows as 739,929 bytes. Using windows embedded unzip tool. Will try on a mac later today and report back. Thanks for the secondary validation that it works for you. I'll keep digging.

    Get the same problem on both Mint and windows.
    When extracting in Mint terminal it says "End-of-central-directory signature not found".

    Can you try using a different mirror to download?

    I have just downloaded it right now and was able to unzip it fine.

    Tried another mirror, another operating system, another service provider, proxy, noProxy.
    Interesting dilemma that some can download it ok and other not.

    Still same results.
    could you please rebuild the zip file Danyal?

    full error:

    user@linux:$ unzip GoogleSyncPlugin-2.1.0.zip
    Archive: GoogleSyncPlugin-2.1.0.zip

    a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
    latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
    the last disk(s) of this archive.

      I now tried with the default Windows zip handler too. It seems there is indeed a problem with the file that some 3rd party unzip tools don't even warn about.

      Until a fixed file is uploaded, I can only tell you that 7-zip extracts the file fine.

        Thank you.
        7zip does indeed do the job.

    Uploaded a new version 2.1.1.

    Included a checksum as well this time [GoogleSyncPlugin-2.1.1]. If the file gets corrupted again, I can at least contact SourceForge for an explanation.
