![]() RELATED: Everything You Need to Know About Zip Files How to Extract a Zip File in Windows 11Įxtracting (unzipping) ZIP files in Windows 11 is just as easy as zipping them. Now that you have a ZIP file, you can copy it or share it like any other kind of file. When you’re ready, press Enter.Īnd that’s all there is to it! Pretty simple. Type a new file name or leave the default name in place. The ZIP file name will highlight, allowing you to type in whatever name you’d like. In the menu that appears, select “Compress to ZIP file.”Īfter a moment, your ZIP file will appear in the same folder as the source files that you just compressed. If you want to zip a group of files or folders, select them by dragging your mouse cursor over them using the selection rectangle, and then right-click the group. Before compressing, know that if you zip folders, their internal folder structure will be preserved when they get unzipped later. This technique also works with files on your desktop. First, using File Explorer, locate the file (or files) that you’d like to compress or combine into a ZIP file.
