How Do You Restore The Windows XP Zip Program With A Right Click?

One of the most popular and useful features of Windows XP is the right-click menu. Right-clicking on a folder calls up a menu of items, including the “Send to” menu. One of the items in this menu is “Compressed (zipped) Folder.” This “zips” the folder, compressing it down so you can email it, or so that it simply takes up less room on the computer. However sometimes when you’ve had a computer for a while, especially if you have a tendency to “tinker” with it, menu items can disappear. But if the right-click “zip” option disappears, it can be restored. Step 1 Go to “Start” and then “Run.” Step 2 Type rundll32 zipfldr.dll,RegisterSendto in the “Open” menu. Step 3 Click “OK.” Step 4 Right-click a folder on your computer. “Compressed (zipped) Folder” has been restored.
