How do I convince my computer to use another zip program than winzip....?
....which appears to believe that it is the only zip/unzip program that is on the machine, and my 'free use' seems to have lapsed (I thought that WinZip was free for non-commercial use anyway) Could it be a problem associated with 64-bit Windows 7? (My previous computer was an 32 bit XP model) I do have a copy of 7-Zip on my machine, which is a 'free-use' program, but the machine goes straight to WinZip when I have a zip file to deal with.... Any suggestions would be gratefully received....

Winrar is the best unzipper, but all you have to do is:
Right click on the file
"Open with"
Select the program
Click drop-down arrow
"Always open with this program"

Hello,
You can download WinZip for free here http://bitly.com/1p6PMg4
Besides the classic ZIP format, WinZip is able to open many others extension (RAR, BZ2, CAB, LHA, 7Z, IMG, ISO)
It's a good free solution.
