Zip Files

Integration with Windows Explorer

After they are installed, many zip utilities integrate with Windows Explorer in Microsoft Windows XP so that when you right-click a file, zip commands are available on the shortcut menu.

Zip a file

To create a .zip file, right-click a file, such as Government Proposal.doc, and then click a command on the shortcut menu, such as Add to Zip file or Add to Archive, to create Government Proposal.zip. Often the zip utility shortcut menu also includes a command such as Configure or Options to access the zip utility’s option settings.
