I've downloaded and installed several versions of WinZip but none of them can unzip WinZip programs. WinZip used to unzip WinZipped programs for me though. It stopped doing it about a week ago. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it but it didn't help. Right now I have WinZip 12.0 installed. The icons are the kind that appear when a computer doesn't recognize the type of file that's in a computer (shown in the attachment) and asks you which program it should use to open it. Does anyone know what's going on and how I can get WinZip to work again? .
