This may help with the Package For The Web error message:

Can you open other files from the external drive? Files other than install files that is.

Next step is, Start -> Run -> cmd and write streams -d filename (only if you have problem with one file) and when you want to unblock folder or (in my case) whole disk (it doesnt matter if it's external HDD or just HDD, whatever) write streams -s -d C:\foldername or just C:\ for whole disk

it fix my problems, i just want to share it with you
