Instructions for Unzipping Files (Windows XP/Vista):

Method #1 

1. Locate the “zipped” folders that you have downloaded.

2. When you double-click on the ‘zipped” folder, you will see the files that are inside, but they are not “unzipped” yet.   On the left hand side of the window shown on your screen and you will see a link to the command “EXTRACT ALL FILES”. Click on this.

3. An extraction wizard window should pop up. Click on “NEXT”.

4. You should see a description of the destination of where your computer would like to place the unzipped files and a “BROWSE” button next to it.  Make sure that the location in that window is actually where you want the unzipped files to end up.

5. If you don’t like the location that is listed, then click on the “BROWSE” button & select a new location for the files to end up, by clicking on locations until you have highlighted the specific location where you want the files to go. Then click “OK”.

6. Once you click “OK” the browse/selection window will disappear and you will be returned to the extraction wizard window.  Click “NEXT”. 

7. You can now either view the files (by putting a check in the box referring to viewing) or not (uncheck the box) and by clicking on “FINISH”. You now have completed unzipping your files.

Method #2

1. Locate the “zipped” folders that you have downloaded.

2. Double click the “zipped” folder you would like to open.

3. Right-click and highlight the file inside the “zipped” folder, and without releasing the right-click button drag the file onto your desktop.

4. You now have completed unzipping your files.
