problems w/ WinZip and XP

[Guest]

Hi..

I've had a particular problem w/ WinZip and XP. I'm using the XP pro here at work, and I have XP home edition on a laptop at home. I zip the files with no problem at work - no error messages, nothing - save them to a floppy and when I get home and try unzipping them, there's nothing in them - I go to the 'extract the files' choice at the left, and nothing shows up on the right as being zipped. Is this some conflict between using different versions of XP? What the heck is going on? I've never had that problem with WinZip before - until XP, probably - so what is it? Any tips around it

please send any replies to (e-mail address removed) with the words "problems w/ WinZIP and XP" in the subject line. Thank you!

The XP versions shouldn't have anything to do with this problem. Can you try
testing the ZIP file from within WinZip (Actions \ Test).
