Exactly, I've done it many times, you simply highlight the file, bring up the 
Context menu, go to Sent To, and choose Compressed Zip Folder.  You give it a 
name, then Windows zips it up.

Really, Steve? I think I recall zipping a folder to share with a friend because 
it was a bit big.

Hi Jackie,

They only add value if you want to create zips for other people.  Windows 
won't do this.

My immediate question is why would you use it when you have a built-in tool 
at your disposal in Windows?  I've never understood that so perhaps people 
would like to enlighten me as to whether these additional zip extractors add 
any more value?

Hi

Wow we’re on the subject of zip files, does anyone still use or even remember 
Winzip? I recently upgraded to  version 22, after having not use the program 
for years and years. What are people’s thaughts and impressions, is WinZip 
still needed today on Windows 10?

Hi All and Thanks to everyone for your responses. They were 
interesting to read and just a little patronising in Steve's case.
It turns out that the zip file in question had somehow become 
associated with VLC Media Player and because of that the "Extract All"
item had disappeared in the context menu. Once I changed the file 
association to File Explorer, the "Extract all" was back and all worked as 
expected.

Hope this helps someone, John

Hi,

Also don't forget, you can just press enter on a zip file, get the 
list of files up inside the zip, press Control-A to select all, then 
Control-C to copy to clipboard then paste them somewhere else.  They 
will be automagically extracted for you.

See, that's not hard, is it. Smile>.  Just like opening a directory.

All the best

Hi

Extracting files in Windows 7 used to be really easy, but in Windows
10 it seems to be a real pain. Does anyone have any tips as I 
haven't actually managed to unzip a file in Windows 10 yet?!

Any help welcome, John
