First off sorry if this is in the wrong place, but would appreciate help on it anyway!!!

The Windows XP "compressed (zipped) folder" function has dissappeared on my PC

This is the feature where you right click in a folder and select new and it says new "compressed folder" or something.  I used this feature alot, and would like it back if anyone knows how it would be great.

anyway thanks in advance for any help!! and sorry once again if this is in the wrong place!!

Hmmm
You mean:
Right Click on a file->Send to->Compressed Ziped Folder ?
Hmmm.,..
Can you go to Start->Run and type sendto and see if "Compressed (zipped) Folder" is there?

have you recently installed WinRAR or WinZIP?

yeah thats what i mean, and it is there! just not when i right click in a folder

win rar i did recently reinstall, but had it installed b4 and it was fine

To "repair" the feature, go to Start > Run and type "regsvr32 zipfldr.dll" then restart the PC.

Thank you!! will try that now!!

If you're using winrar it doesn't show because all compressed files will be opened with winrar. If you choose "WinRAR Archive" it's the same.

okkie thank you all for the help and support
