  1. How Unzip a 7z File With Windows 10?


    I'm trying to unzip a 7z file and Win10 is not giving me a way to do it automatically.

    I double click on the file in File Explorer and nothing happens. In the menu above, I see a way to zip files, but not to unzip a file.

    I googled it and the results tell me to use third party software.

    I thought Win 10 had an unzipper built in.

    :)

    Both run clean on both machines.

    More information that may matter:

    • The problem is with a USB flash drive that is protected with BitLocker
    • The files that I can't move or access all happen to be .ods (open document spreadsheet) files
    • Copying the files again to other locations on the drive fails consistently
    • Zipping the files (with 7Zip) and then copying the resulting .7z file to the flash drive works exactly as expected. I can unzip the contents on the other machine and even delete the .7z file when I'm done.
    For what it's worth, the flash drive was mounted while the scans were run.

    Windows has zip file built in. Not 7zip support.

    7z is a format produced by 7-Zip, you'll need it to open the compressed file.

  6. Thanks.
    I got an unzipper from sourceforge that did the trick.

    7zip does make an archiver. You can get it from here.
