• I can not open zip files!

  I had this problem since day 1.  Whenever I get a zip file, Vista will not open the file instead, he associated with Internet Explorer and sends the computer into a loop of windows which can only be stopped by stopping turn signals.  If I associate the file with any other program, it opens not and goves me a message that the content is unreadable.  I do not get an option to "extract files".

  Help!

  Go to: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/22/reset-and-fix-broken-windows-vista-file-ext-and-type-associations-include-exe-com-sys-zip-lnk-folder-drive/ and scroll down to the ZIP entry and click or double-click on it to launch the association of Zip files repair.  Then restart.  Zip files should now behave as usual.  You will still be able to use 7 - Zip instead of Vista if that is your choice.  All you have to do is change the file association by default for the ZIP files to 7-ZIP inntead of Vista.

  If you have this problem withall the speed of your program, Diecut for entry EXE click or double-ICCT top to run the EXE file association repair.  This should solve the problem of all programs to open under internet explore (if that is the case - I'm not sure I quite understand your situation).

  If the programs are open OK but the problem is that all the icons are all the internet Explorer icons, then perform a rebuild of the cache icon as follows:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/117229-icon-cache-rebuild.html.

  I hope this helps.

• Error trying to open ZIP files

  Hey all,.

  I am a Helpdesk technician to my company and we have had several users report that they get an error when you try to open ZIP files. These files are on our network file server. The error message received is 'Windowscannot open the folder. The compressed (zipped) folder is invalid".» We have installed 7 - zip on a couple of PC users for a temporary solution, but there are more than 150 users in our network and it's a lot of time to go to each PC and install it. So far, we have heard of 15 who have this problem. We are running Windows 7 64 bit. I searched all over the web for a fix and came to nothing. This question seems to have begun about 3 weeks... around the 9/15/2015...maybe an update of microsoft? Patches or ideas would be great! Thanks in advance.

  Edit: We have noticed that if the user restarts their PC the problem goes away for a spell, but returns spontaneously. We use Thin Clients HP and Dell machines... It happens on both

  Hello

  You need to open ZIP files, which are compressed to make it smaller, then use the content
  in the application appropriate - so if the audio or video content can use WMP.

  Compress and uncompress files (zip files)

  Although Windows has integrated ZIP, you might be more comfortable using a program
  with more features (and works with different types of compressed files).

• Cannot open .zip files after AutoUpdate

  I recently had an automatic windows update and since then I can't open .zip files and my files wihtin a folder have been reorganized without doing me anything.  When I try to open the .zipfiles (which were downloaded on the internet July 2010) w Internet explorer tries to oppen a component but done this several times per second, so I get white flashes but no connection. I don't know what they opened with before.  The only way I can stop the flashing windows (which eventually come with the message "not responding" is to restart the computer.  However if I try to get on the internet, normally there no problem.  Some of the text files, are some of the videos.   Before this recent update, I never had a problem opening these files.  Can you please help.

• Opening zip files downloaded

  I don't know if this is the right forum, I'm sorry if not.  I need help, but if you can help... lately, whenever I try to open a file of internet download it tries to open it with Adobe Reader, which causes me to get an error message: "Adobe Reader could not open" Multi - flowers.zip' because it is not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example he was sent as an attachment to e-mail and has not been correctly decoded).  How can I change the default program to open zip files? He used to work very well so I don't know how this has changed... very frustrated.  Help, please!  Thank you! I use Microsoft Vista

  Whenever you have a zipped file, you need to "unzip" first.
  If you right click on the zip, a pop-up box will appear. In this box, you will see an option that says "extract all "?

  If you have the "Extract all" option, click it. You are now 'unzip' the file zipped. Once completed, you can now open it the usual way.

• Windows 7 cannot open zip files

  I'm almost certain that, in the past, my Dell Inspiron 580 with Windows 7 could open zip files.

  Last month I had to replace my internal hard drive and reinstall Windows from the disks that I bought from Dell.  Now when I try to open a zip file I downloaded, I have an alert that says that Windows Explorer is unable to open it.

  I see a lot of different programs, you can buy or download free, claiming to allow you to decompress the files.  Isn't Windows supposed to be able to open zip se files?

  Is there any downloadable for free, zip file openers that work with Windows 7 64 bit?

  Hello Jumprun,

  Compress or decompress files isn't windows features. Software of third party such as WinZip, WinRAR, 7Zip are used to compress and decompress files. You can download them by clicking the program you want to download.
  WinZip
  WinRAR
  7zip I hope this helps!

• BlackBerry-sign gives me "error in opening zip file".

  We have BB 10 Native application that has some setting we want to customize for each customer. Example of database server, etc. User\Pass. The settings are stored in the QML file so it can be read by the App while running.

  In order to allow customization based on demand, we decided to create the ussigned of the bar of the package version using blackberry-nativepackager.  Bar file is Zip file, when these details provided by the customer, we simply decompress .bar file, the zip again and QML file using a utility such as 7 Zip.

  But after that when I tried to sign the new file .bar using blackberry - sign it gives me "error in opening zip file". File has permission and it is not corrupt. I don't know why blackberry-signatory dislikes the new bar file. Is native Packer doesn't something extra then creation of zip file to make it work with blackberry signer?

  I believe that this solution I was looking for.

  Tool blackBerry Push initiator:

  The initiator of Push BlackBerry tool is an application that allows you to initiate the data push to installed applications onBlackBerry 10 devices.

• Default application to open ZIP files?

  I guess there is none because ZIP is missing in the QNXApplication.supportedFileTypes.

  However, the preloaded file manager (developed by RIM) can handle ZIP files.

  I need to set up my own ZIP handling, if I want to open ZIP files?

  I use an AS3 library to unzip files (internal to the app). If you are looking for a way to allow the user to see the decompressed files, so no at this point. You could display something in your application and view the contents of the zip file and control the destination of each file (make your own unzip the Viewer).

• Windows does not open Zip files more

  I use Windows 7 Professional for a few years now and I've always been able to open the zipped files.  Suddenly now my pc does not have a program associated with the opening of the zip files.  Something has changed and I have no idea of what has changed.  I asked this question before a Microsoft.com site, and he sent me to a site that was not Microsoft where I tried to download 7-zip which worked. But in the download zip 7 process it has also installed other applications that try to sell me unsolicited garbage.  I am appalled to see that Microsoft would send me to a site that attempted to install unsolicited applications.  Come on guys, just give me my windows version of WinZip go back so I can go about my business.   I have reviewed questions in this forum about this topic and it seems that it lasts for awhile now, surely someone at Microsoft noticed this problem and has a solution for this.  Can we download a fix for this.  Where in Windows is the program that opens zip files stored?

  Hello!

  Please restore default Windows 7 registry entries and program of the .zip file extension associations.
  How it's done, is described here: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html
