  1. Cant open Zipped files, files disappeared and other files won't open


    For some reason my laptop won't let me open zipped files, load of my folder have become nearly empty and when I try to open files that are still there it says they don't exist The only thing I've done recently which could impact this is I cleared out loads of space, cleared temp files, deleted a load of old apps etc. I can't think how that could have impacted it and I'm really anxious, PLZ HELP

  3. cant open zip files without saving first

    Please do the following to attempt to repair a Zip file:


    Click Start, click All Programs, and click Accessories

    Right click Command Prompt and choose Run as administrator

    Change directories to the folder where the corrupted Zip file is located

    Type: "C:\Program Files\WinZip\wzzip" -yf zipfile.zip


    If the corrupted Zip file is split or spanned, use the following command instead:


    "C:\Program Files\WinZip\wzzip" -yfs zipfile.zip


    WZZIP will create a new Zip file with a FIXED suffix in the file name. The original Zip file will not be modified. Only the data in the original Zip file is used.


    The FIXED Zip file is structurally sound but the data may still be corrupt. WZZIP does not fix the zipped data itself. If the zipped data has a CRC error or the zipped data is corrupt, then the resulting fixed Zip file will still be corrupt.


    Useful resources, which might become solutions have more different information than guide above...
