ZIP extraction not working like it used to

[JAC]

Something has changed on my PC such that the built-in Windows ZIP file
support doesn't work as it used to.

For one thing, zip files are now in my directories using that
"default" windows icon, like when Windows doesn't know what program to
associate with it.

I can double click the zip file and see inside it. I can then
manually cut and paste the files out of the zip file. Or I can choose
Extract from the File menu once I've double clicked the zip file.

But, I used to be able to right-click a zip file and chose an Extract
All option. That is gone.

What do I need to do to fix this?

Hi,

Try this:

Start/run "regsvr32 zipfldr.dll" and click "ok"

Go to install and remove programs in control panel, disable compressed files in windows utilities... reboot and go back to same location and re-enable compressed files.. it should cure it
