Running xp Pro v5.2.0.0 on Win 10 Pro.
I have 7-Zip File Manager set as my default app for .zip files in Windows.
But when I click on a .zip file in xp it always opens in xp - not the default app.
Why? How do I force xp to use the Windows default app?
Yes, I searched this forum for an answer but '.zip' returns 899 hits - sorry, not gonna browse through all those!
Also searched through xp options but found nothing. Maybe I missed it?
TIA, Rob

You have 2 way to open the zip files : double clic on it or right clic - open
The second way opens the default zip app
