.zip files in XP
I installed Winace to open a specfic file, but after I uninstalled it the zip files dont have any icon - before they used to have a specific XP icon. Any way I can fix this?

Re: .zip files in XP
yep, there is

install winzip, winrar or winace

problem solved

oh and if you uninstall winzip it resets the icons to what they where in windows, the other 2 are 'dirty' and don't do that

Download Tweak UI and run its repair icons tool.

You can change the Icon to what you want it to be there.

it was never necessary to integrate it into the OS. there are more than enough tools to unzip everything. but, if you want world domination you need an unzip-tool, even if its crap

Re: .zip files in XP
download iconpackager packager, then go to wincustomize.org and find crystalized iconpackager "pack".
