No, I have never used anything like Winzip and can’t understand why people have
felt it necessary, but I am pleased to have discovered a much simpler way of
unzipping folders.

Hi Alison
I’ve always used the Windows utility, I have never installed WinZip or anything
else because it’s always worked well for me. I thought some people have said
you need additional utilities because the built-in Windows tool doesn’t extract
everything. This has not been my experience, but each to their own.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

I had to smile, Jackie, when you explained how to unzip a folder. I have only
recently discovered this method. For years I have:
1. Highlighted the zipped file
2. Pressed the context key
3. Tabbed round to extract
4. Shift-tabbed back to browse
5. Shift-tabbed back to the folder where I wanted it to go
6. Tabbed forward past the edit field confirming the folder and checked to
say this is indeed where I wanted it saved
7. And lastly tabbed to extract.
This method works but it what you describe is so much simpler and quicker.
