Hi,  
I downloaded wordpress, but then right click on it, asks me which program I want to open it with, but if I open it with any program, its just code or something,  
and when I right click it there isnt an extract section to unzip it.  
when I right click it, I get these options.: Open  
Open with  
share  
send to  
cut  
copy  
create shortcut  
delete  
Rename  
properties.

I go to help, then it takes me online to download regpro. but Ive done that before, but they want you to purchase the software to clean any errors if any.

is there anyway I can get wordpress to work.

if somebody can help me. thanks
