Compressed Files and Folders Option Missing
That option was not available in Win XP
That's not at all surprising since you are in the wrong newsgroup. This
is one supporting those still running the legacy Windows Me operating
system, hence the "windowsme" rather than "windowsxp" in its title.
I'm pleased to read that you've solved the problem. Re-registering the
zip folders file would have been my next suggestion but is not usually
required for those running Win Me.

did find a solution as follows:
Click Start, Run and type (or paste):
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.
This worked just fine.
