Somehow I have lost the "Compressed (zipped) Folders" command in the Send To right click menu. I have been to the MSKB but it was no help. I tried using the "Send To" wizard to get it back but it's a no-go.

Will someone go to the "Send To" menu in Windows XP (quickest way there is to type "send to" (w/o quotes) in the run command), and right click on the "Compressed (zipped) Folder" command, click "Properties" and quote me what is in the "Target" box under the "Shortcut" tab, Please! Thank You In Advance.

Software gives me a headache.

Po'Boy,
To restore the missing Compressed (zipped) Folder entry to the "Send To" menu in Windows XP, use these steps:

Click Start, Run and type:

rundll32 zipfldr.dll,RegisterSendto

In the background, a 0 byte file named Compressed (zipped) Folder.ZFSendToTarget will automatically be created in the %Userprofile%\SendTo folder.

Method 2 at the link below looks painless.
