Hey
One day i was stupid and was downloading a zip file and when it popped up
the dialog box that says like open, save as, more info, etc I accidentially
uncheck the "always ask for files of this type" or whatever it says. And
now whenever i click a zip file it automatically starts opening it and
doesnt save it =( (well it does save it in some temp directory im sure,
but i cant save zip files where i want to anymore without rightclicking and
saying save target as...) very annoying. does anyone know how to make it so
that i can choose what to do with zip files again? thanks

Open Windows Explorer or My Computer, click the Tools Menu, click Folder
Options, click File Types, scroll down to ZIP and click it to select it,
click the Advanced button, click to put a checkmark in the option: Confirm
Open After Download. Then click the OK button, and then click the APPLY and
OK buttons in the remaining window.
 
thanks =)
