Trouble opening zip attachments

S

Steve

My Outlook 07 email has suddenly started trying to open every zip attachment
with Internet Explorer, which doesn't work. I assume I must have somehow
inadvertently changed the default setting for what Outlook uses to open this
kind of attachment, but I can't find a way of re-setting that default. Any
advice?

Outlook doesn't choose what to open a file with, Windows does. Set the
appropriate application to open a Zip file with in Windows Explorer. Tools >
Folder Options > File Types.
