    Help ! I CANNOT send to a zip file > option is gone!!! (Win 7)


    When I right click on a file and hit Send to >>>>>> there is NO option/icon for a zip file. The only thing that is there is the option to send to a DVD RW Drive.

    How and where do I reset so that I can send my file to a zip file???? It's wierd > it's gone!!!! It was there before because I previously compressed files. Any brilliant ideas out there?

    Many thanks!

    Oh my, THANK YOU Brink aka Shawn, and Derekimo aka Derik >> for you quick responses and YES the zip along with everything is now restored back to square one. It's always a matter of knowing where to look for the answer, of which I had not a clue, BUT obviously I asked the right forum!!!!

    Again, my sincere gratitude!
