Windows XP has built in support for Zip files and also has the ability to show the contents of a Zip file like a file folder. This ability has caused problems with some software applications like AutoCAD and some others. It is also important to disable this feature if you want to use third-party Zip programs like WinZip or PKZip to avoid any conflicts. To turn off this feature follow the steps below.
Step 1 - Click on the Start button located in the task bar area.
Step 2 - Select the Run... option. When the dialog box pops up type in regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll and click the OK button.
To re-enable the feature repeat Step 1 and select the Run... option. When the dialog box pops up type in regsvr32 zipfldr.dll and click the OK button.
