Opening an existing Zip file
In order to zip and unzip files and folders with WinZip®,
you need to have a Zip file. You can use an existing Zip file or you can create a new,
empty Zip file. To open an existing Zip file, choose one of the following methods
- drop a Zip file on the WinZip icon on the Dock.
- click on Open Zip File from the File
menu to drop down a menu of locations.
- click on Open Recent from the File
menu to drop down a list of recently opened Zip files.
- click on a file name in the Recent Zip Files list in the Zip pane (in
Source List Mode).
Using Open Zip File and selecting a location will display the standard File
Open dialog box. Navigate to the folder containing the desired Zip file, select it, and click
Open.
