RE: How to unzip a file?
I find 7-Zip, which is open source software, much easier to understand. For example, one option is to "Extract here," meaning unzip to the same folder. Couldn't be clearer. It's accessible. Just open the context menu with the applications key, press enter on 7-Zip, then arrow down to "Extract here" and press enter. For anyone interested, here's the link to a page with an explanation and the download link: http://www.7-zip.org/ -Original Message- From: Jfw [mailto:jfw-boun...@lists.the-jdh.com] On Behalf Of Mike B. via Jfw Sent: Monday, September 21, 2015 8:52 AM To: The Jaws for Windows support list.

Re: How to unzip a file?
Hi, Mike. After you sent me this message, I tried again to copy the contents of an opened zip file to another folder, and it did work for me this time, just the way you said it does for you. I'm not sure why it wasn't working for me before, except that before, I had a different version of JAWS, and it was about three years ago that I tried it this way before. Thank you for letting me know this works, Mike.

Re: How to unzip a file?
To unzip or extract from a zipped file:1. Open the context menu using application key or right mouse click button (Jaws key+ 8 on number key pad) 2. Select "extract" from the context menu or press "T" 3. Tab through the dialog and select extract or press Alt +E. This will place the extracted or unzipped file in whatever folder the original zipped file is already in. If you want it to appear elsewhere, you can select a different option when you tab through the extract dialog . In summary, the short cut is: application key, then letter "T", then alt+E. Jaws announces extraction progression until it is 100 percent completed.

Re: How to unzip a file?
If you press enter on a zipped file, copy the contents, & paste them into a folder of the same name somewhere else, it'll work just as you had unzipped the file. Take care.

Pressing Enter on a zip file usually does not unzip the file. it only opens it so you can see the contents of the file. To actually unzip the file, one must press the Applications key, arrow to Extract All, follow the dialogue boxes, and wait for the file to be extracted.

Re: How to unzip a file?
That may be true under some conditions. But I use Windows XP, and I cannot copy the files listed in the zip file with Control plus C. Instead, I must use a copy to folder option found in the edit menu. So, opening the zip file is not the same as having the files in an extracted folder.

How to unzip a file?
OK. Totally embarrassed here. I thought I knew how to do this in Windows 7, but today at least I'm stumped. I have downloaded a file which is zipped. How do I unzip it?
