  1. Cannot Zip Folder In Windows 10


    Hello,I cannot zip a folder with subfolders in it in Windows 10.My problem is NOT the commonly mentioned problem of the Zip option being absent from the menu.I have already compressed the files within the folders, but I cannot zip the folder.I have already given permissions to Everyone. When I attempt to Zip the file using the right-click menu and 'Send To' - Compressed Zip Folder' nothing happens.I have also tried clicking on the Zip icon in the menu bar under 'Share' in the folder view window - nothing happens. There is no error message.Why is my folder not zipping?

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Folders with zip files

    I have like 30 or more folders and everyone of them has only one single zip file.
    How can I extract all zip files inside of all folders?

    Unable to access Zip folder created by "Steps Recorder" in Windows 10

    Thank you for the reply.

    I already have "hidden files" checked.

    To clarify :
    1) Attempting to open file by clicking on it in the "Recent files" list I get the following:

    2) Unable to find file where it is supposed to be located based on the "File location" path:

    3) What I get when attempting to look at "Security" tab:
