Ah, there you go!

Just remember that Windows 10 has native support for zip archives. So
there's really not much you have to do. You should however still be able to
extract the files from that zip archive if you want to.

My apologies. I did not pay attention to the extension, and when I pressed
enter on the file, it opened up in Duxbury. Again, my apologies. Thanks for
the assistance.

What happens when you press enter on the file(s?) Does the "open with"
dialogue open?

Windows 10 treats zip files as folders. So when you press enter, you should
actually be inside the zip archive and able to view and even work with the
individual files.

The options in the context menu will  probably say "extract", which is what
you want to do if you want to dump all the files from the zip archive into
an actual folder on your system.

Afternoon all.

I just downloaded several zipped files for braille lessons. However, when I
went to the context menu i.e. Shift F10, there was no option for unzipping
the file. I am using JAWS 2018 and Windows 10 on a Dell laptop. Any
thoughts/ideas/suggestions will be deeply appreciated.
