Hello:

Is there any way to make the Windows XP "Extraction
Wizard" always make the same folder its target when
unzipping?

I have created a folder called "unzipping" and, rather
than have to search for the location the Wizard seems to
want to choose or go to the trouble of manually using
the "browse" button to navigate to my desired destination
location....

TIA
 
Great question. I will work on this some time this week. Keep us posted in
the meantime. Also, do some lurking here:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.zip
