    If you are trying to un-compress files that are not yours, the only thing I can see is that the file is locked, and you need to enter a password, hence the password request

    Hope this helps

    Either the file was corrupted or encrypted (most likely the latter). If you downloaded the file, try going back to the source to see what the password was, it should have been posted with the file. If you got the file from someone, try asking them what it is.
