then i got sbbs_run sbbsexec sbbsctrl sbbstext.zip from vert and copied it over my existing files.

i get this error
!JavaScript yesnobar.js line 8: TypeError: yes_str is null

It sounds like the sbbsctrl.exe/sbbs.dll you're running is not the latest.

You don't want both tgz and zip, just one or the other. And sbbs_run.zip already includes the contents of other .zip files you have highlighted there. So you need either sbbs_run.zip or the other 3 zip files, not all of them.

from my backups.
