General How to open .zip files

winzip is preferable to Windows XP's unzip, because it can zip and unzip a directory tree. XP may have improved since i bought mine (!), if so, apologies to them. XP's unzip used to put all the files in the root directory, which wrecks adresses to the stylesheet and all internal links.

The free version of winzip is brilliant.

 

Also very good freeware is 7-zip.

 

WinRAR is the best compressor

 

Would use WinRar for all .zip and .rar files, doing a job for many years

 

To open Zip file on your system You need a WinRar for it. First install the WinRar on your Pc. Then open the Zip file . It can be easily open

1 Double-click the ZIP file. In Windows XP or newer, Mac OS X, and Ubuntu Linux[1], you can double-click the ZIP file and it will open in a new window. You can then copy the contents to another folder.

OS X will create a new folder next to the ZIP file when you double-click it, but may not open it automatically.

2 Right-click the ZIP file. In Windows and Linux, you can right-click the Zip file and select “Extract All…” or “Extract Here”. Extract All will allow you to set a path for the extracted folder to go, and Extract Here will uncompress the folder and leave it in the same location as the ZIP file.

 

Also very good freeware is 7-zip.

 

So expensive for a software like this
