Can anyone please let me know how I can correct a problem I am having with Windows XP and zip files?
When right clicking on a file then choosing send to the option for Compress File has disappeared.
I downloaded a third party program (WinZip) and associated zip extensions with the program but for some reason any files that are on my system with a zip ext. is still not recognized by WinZip.
I have also gone into the folder option tab within the control panel and added a zip ext. and for some reason each time I attempt to add the extension it still is not accepted.
I have also gone into the winzip program and associated the zip extension with their program and still each time I try and open a zip file XP does not recognize the file format.
I am aware that I can reinstall XP but then I will have to re-install all of my programs.
Thanks!!!
