Thumbs up Get Rid Of XP's In-built ZIP Support!

# Disable XP's built-in Zip Support


With Windows XP, Microsoft have given us a built-in Zip
feature.

This new XP feature however just tends to get in the way
and is no where near as feature laden as WinZip.

So the good news is that you can disable the Windows XP
built-in Zip support! (and enable it again if you ever want to.)

To Disable:

1) Start Menu > Run

2) Type:

regsvr32 /u %windir%\system32\zipfldr.dll


To Enable It Latter:

1) Start Menu > Run

2) Type:

regsvr32 %windir%\system32\zipfldr.dll


And that's it!

Regards

Marc Liron
