To open a zip file on a Mac, follow these steps:
- Locate the zip file you want to open. You can do this by using the Finder app or by using the search function on your Mac.
- Double-click on the zip file to open it. This will automatically extract the files contained within the zip file and create a new folder with the same name as the zip file.
- The extracted files will be placed in a new folder in the same location as the zip file. You can access the extracted files by opening the new folder.
Alternatively, you can also right-click on the zip file and select “Open With > Archive Utility” from the context menu to extract the files contained in the zip file.
If you want to open the zip file in a specific application, such as a text editor or image viewer, you can right-click on the zip file and select “Open With” followed by the name of the application you want to use.
