To open a zip file on a Windows computer, follow these steps:
- Locate the zip file you want to open. You can do this by using the File Explorer app or by using the search function on your computer.
- Right-click on the zip file and select “Extract All” from the context menu.
- A new window will open, allowing you to select the location where you want to extract the files contained in the zip file.
- Click the “Extract” button to extract the files. This will create a new folder with the same name as the zip file and place the extracted files in the folder.
- You can access the extracted files by opening the new folder.
Alternatively, you can also double-click on the zip file to open it in the File Explorer app. This will show the contents of the zip file, and you can extract the files by right-clicking on them and selecting “Extract” from the context menu.
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.
