Disable zip file handling of Windows XP
In: General
12 Mar 2007I to not want to open zip files in the Windows Explorer as folders because it takes a long time for big zip files so one of my first tasks after installing Windows is disabling it.
To disable the built in support for zip files in Windows XP execute the following command line:
regsvr32 /u %windir%\system32\zipfldr.dll
To enable it again run the following command:
regsvr32 %windir%\system32\zipfldr.dll
