File Won't Unzip... 1

[bluenoser337]

May not be the right forum for this but here goes...Have a zipped file (Winzip 8.1) that won't unzip. "Cannot open file: It does not appear to be a valid archive". I zipped this file and don't remember any errors. Is there a utility out there to retrieve data from a corrupt zipped file? Thanks!

PKZip for Windows claims to recover corrupted zip files. Try

WinRar will repair .zip folders, whether it can repair your is another issue.

There are many others. Google "repair zip archive utility"

Tried Zip Repair (free from CrocWare). It recovered 192 of 194 files very easily. Thanks!
