How can I move a compressed file (zipped) on my memory stick?

I can download a "e-book" from loc.gov.  It is sent compressed (zipped).

How "decompress this file?

How can I move the "file unzipped on my memory stick?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Move the mouse over the file that you downloaded and click the right button of the mouse. You should see a menu that starts:

  • Explore
  • Open
  • Extract all...

If you don't see it, it may be that this is not a .zip file. To check, open the folder that you downloaded it and change the view to details, if necessary. The 'Type' column should say 'compressed (zipped) folder '.  Or change the folder options to show file extensions and make sure that the name of the file ends in .zip.
