I have recently moved into windows XP. I had downloaded a free utility that for unzipping files and zipping them by right clicking with my mouse. I can't seem to find any freebies at PCworld.com. Does anyone know where I might find one?
Thanks
Ray

download winzip, you get a 30 day trial but when the trial ends u still get to continue so it really never finishes.

Hi Ray Fornario;
Windows XP has it's own built in utility for
zipping and unzipping files.

Right click a file>sendto>compressed folder.
That will "zip" it.

Right click a compressed (zip) file then click extract all.
That will "unzip" it.

Good luck.
