Unable to extract zip files (no connection to windows built in zip app)

I have previous been able to extract files with the ending .zip, after removing the zip genius, my .zip ending files will not be extracted by windows 7 built in Extractor. The question is when windows does not recognize the zip file and it asks me what program I open the zip file with. I can't find windows 7 zip app in the list, and I really don't want to use any 3-tier apps. Advice on what to do?

Toven,

If you have already tried to change the file extension, nothing helps, you can try a System Restore to a point before the problem/change occurred. I hope this helps.

  • Unable to extract .zip files?

    Today I went to download some fonts for photoshop. Ive done it before and it worked, but all of a sudden when I download the .zip file, the icon that it is now the photoshop icon and when I double click on the file, it tries to open in photoshop, but does not say that the file type cannot be opened there. It's probably a little confused, but if someone knows how to help, then please do. Thank you!

    I don't know if you are running Windows or MacOS, but I'll go with Windows.

    Right-click on the zip icon

    Choose open with > the program choose default

    Select your zip Extractor program and make sure 'always open with this program' is checked.

    Click OK and your zip file should open properly.

    2. do you get an error message?

    3. you try to extract the zip for the first time?

    4. were you able to extract zip files earlier?

    There are two ways to extract the files. The first is to right click on the file and choose "Extract here" which will unzip a file completely without having to open the file. The other method is to double-click the file to open it in 7 - Zip, then click the button "Check out" on the toolbar. You will then be asked where you want to extract the data files.
