Bringing up new PC (XP Pro), Windows Explorer wants to show zip-files
as if they were folders :-(

How do I turn that off?

You don't SFAIK. What's wrong with it? The metaphor seems fine
to me - you can open them as if they were folders without
resorting to PKZip or the like.


The XP Pro machine that died (ancient Enpower) didn't do that. Maybe
it's machine-brand dependent? (This new box is Lenovo.)

I don't like the clutter... I like to make my own ;-)

Did you try right click, properties, open with ?
