Hi Francis,

There are a number of zip and unzip utilities including Winzip.  These
usually make themselves the default option for dealing with zipped files.

There is also a number of different zip formats and not all of the zip
utilities will deal with all of the formats.

There is, however, a utility for most types of zip format built in to the XP
system.

If you have installed Winzip, Winra or some other zip utility, it is likely
that this will be invoked when you press enter on a zipped file.  If,
however, you wish to try using the XP built-in utility, select the zip file
and press the applications key which is the key to the left of the right
control key on a standard keyboard.  Cursor down to "extract all" and press
enter.

This invokes the XP unzip wizard.

You will be taken through a set of pages giving you the opportunity of
specifying the folder where you want the files to be extracted etc.

HTH,

Phil Medway
