How Can I Download and Unzip revtex4-1?

In summary, to download revtex-4-1 or revtex4, you can unzip the files using a program like WinZip or Easyzip, which can be found through a simple internet search. After unzipping all the files to the same directory, look for an .EXE file called "setup" and run it. Another option is to use the free and open source program, 7-Zip, which allows for easy compression and decompression of files, though keep in mind that some decompression programs may not support AES encryption.

I don't know that program, but generally, you would need to unzip the files. This can be done with any unzipper but a common one is WinZip. An old one was called PKUNZIP.

You find these at www.google.com.

A freeware one is Easyzip

Seems to work OK.

Freeware means you can use it for free. Winzip costs money.

After you unzip all the files to the same directory, you look for an .EXE file called "setup", or something similar, and run it.

Even better Windows (at least XP) allows you to open up Zip files like directories and uncompress them as well. For compressing things, I've found that the open source and free 7-Zip is pretty good (a warning if you encrypt your zip files however: AES isn't supported by many decompression programs, nor by Windows)
