O.T.-Zip/Unzip Software
http://www.nonags.com/nonags/ziputil.html
http://www.iceows.com/Download.htm The first has a list.......the second, iceows, is what (I think) was formerly arjFolder, worked great with Me and covered virtually all compression formats. Heirloom, old and I missed my "Job says" "Job" wrote in message ... Thank you Mike. "Mike M" wrote in message ... Job wrote: Thanks for your response Mike. Re "Win Me's built in Compressed folders facility", I knew I could right click on a .zip and select "Extract All" to unzip but honestly did not know what application was being used. Where do I find the "Compressed folders facility" in my system? If installed (Add/Remove Programs | Windows Setup | System Tools - Details | check "Compressed Folders", then click OK, Apply and finally reboot) "Compressed Folders" is part of the shell, that is the GUI. Does it allow you to also "zip" files? Yes. Select the files to be zipped, right click and then Send To and then Compressed Folder. You can then rename the "compressed folder", which is a zip file, to suit your requirements. -- Mike Maltby |

I didn't see 7-zip mentioned in the recommendations. It's also worth
looking at. http://www.7-zip.org/ Job wrote: I'm looking for some recommendations for good zip/unzip software that will work with ME. Hope you have some thoughts on this fine April day. Thank you. |

O.T.-Zip/Unzip Software
Hey Heirloom,
Thanks for the links youngun. Appears there are mucho choices. I didn't even realize I had a native zipper, 'cepting in my pants, until Mike M educated me. (Thank goodness he does that quite often.) I will have to experiment with some of the programs and see which fits my level of dumbness. Take care my man. Job asks, "If try to fail and succeed, have I failed or succeeded?"

O.T.-Zip/Unzip Software
Hi Tom V,
I've seen 7-zip mentioned in other forums as a good one. I will add it into potentials. My confidence level increases when this Newsgroup suggest things. Thanks for your input. Job says, "Being retired I'm supposed to mosey, amble, stroll, chill and such yet here I am like Old MacDonald with a here zip, there zip, everywhere zip, zip." "TomV" wrote in message ...
