I don't know what the source of the problem is, but it's probably just a
corrupt file. If you want a fine file compression and expansion program that
will handle most formats, try the free, open source PeaZip.

I have a similar problem:
Using Vista Home Premium at workplace. Been recieving e-mail attachment
every Thursday from "CBDisk-FedBizOpps". (Contract bid opportunities).
They
sent their own CD-Rom to install so as to download these zip files to. Was
working fine until all of a sudden, when it comes to open the file to
install
the weekly issue I get this-"Dyna Zip Unzip error: Zip structure invalid
(Problem reading Zip file)" What has happened? Is this a Windows problem?

Hi all,

I've suddenly lost my ability to unzip files.

Vista (business) doesn't seem to have an associated program, and I don't
know where to find it. Anyone know?

I don't really want to shell out 40 smackers for winzip if I don't have
to.

I was able to decompress when I had XP, anyone know what happened?

Thanks for the sugestion, Wandering. I will write that down and save it in
case I need it later, but for right now the problem seems to be solved. I
just took a chance on changing the compatibility program's "use an older
version of Windows" and changed it to "Windows 98". It seems to work well now.

Zip association is still with Vista it might be a corrupt zip file.

Yes, it seemed to have given me the option to extract again as it is now
associated with the program again but as mentioned below the icon is still
not back.

Maybe a restart will do the trick. Anyone have the zipfolder icon come back
after doing this fix spoken about here?

Restart of computer seemed to do the trick of the icon issue, all is well now.

Thanks.

A reboot will do the trick. In case that does not work, you may have to rebuild the icons. See:

You didn't give any details about where you are looking? Right click a .zip
file and you should see an item called "Extract All" on the pop-up menu.

Do yourself a BIG favour and ditch the horrible web interface. Use a news
reader instead.
