Vista and Zip

I'm curious - where do the in-built Zip / Unzip functions of Vista live?
(I did not install Winzip on the machine, but it seems to manage well by
itself, so far.)

Starting with XP, MS included limited functionality for zipping and
unzipping files. It's part of the OS and I don't know of any way to
"uninstall" it.

Occam

The zip functionality is integrated into the operating system, it isn't a
separate program.

This is for XP. Did you actually test it under Vista before posting ?

It can also work with it.

Sure ? I just tried it on Vista Enterprise x86 and it does not work.

So as usual you posted something wrong without testing it fist.

Others have tested it and it works and its not something I need to do or
test, so please stop insinuating. You the other day claimed Exchange is not
a part of SBS when I and others proved you wrong. In addition to that, you
said, Exchange does not require AD when I tirelessly proved you wrong,
Exchange has required AD since version 5.5. If I were you, I would probably
change your name from ThePro to "AbsolutelyNotThePro".
