Every since the update, I have not been able to successfully upload new creative from google web designer. The error message is as follows:
The .ZIP file can not be processed because the file itself or one of the files inside it was corrupted. Please check your files, re-compress them, and then try again.

Im using the "dynamic remarketing for adWords" template supplied by GWD with minimal tweaks. Ive also tried to upload a dynamic remarketing template that has not been tweaked and still get the same error message. 

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Myles,

I'm sorry you are running into this issue. The published file in Google Web Designer 2.0.0.1113 build contains the dynamic meta tags for the new AdWords UI. However, we are about to release an update to not include those tags yet to continue to support the workflow in the current AdWords UI. The release should be out in an hour. The new version will be 2.0.0.1116. You will need to re-publish the file to fix the issue.

In the mean time, if you want to proceed, please open the index.html in a text editor and remove the following tags in order to publish the the current AdWords UI: 
<meta name="productType" content="dynamic"><meta name="vertical" content="RETAIL">

If you would like to check out the new AdWords UI, you will need these meta tags for dynamic remarketing creatives. 

Thanks,
San

Hi Myles,

Please relaunch to see if your build has been updated to 2.0.0.1116. If it has, please re-publish your file and upload to AdWords again.

Thanks,
San

Thank you for the rollback update. I will look into documentation for the the new AdWords UI as we will be pushing a lot more dynamic creative utilizing GWD. Thank you all for your help!
