Compressed File Missing From Send to in Vista

I am trying to Compress files in Vista and When I right click and Select Send
To the Compressed File option is missing. I checked Regedit and .zip is
associated with compressed files. How do I add that feature back to Send To?
 
Navigate to C:\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo, and
Copy the file "Compressed (zipped) Folder".

Then Paste it into this folder:
C:\Users\(Your Name)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo

Thanks that worked, Why couldn't I find that anywhere else. There are about 5 other people with the same question. Windows Vista Sucks.

This posting was super helpful - but was unable to solve the problem of
highlighting a file and right-clicking to "send to compressed files" - this
option is missing; furthermore, "send to desktop" is also missing. I've
double checked my regedit as described below, I've copied and pasted the
pathways also described below - but no luck. Any suggestions?
 
I don't see the other replies to your message, but you can try this.
First, re-register the zip feature
start/.../run, type:
regsvr32 zipfldr

Next open notepad to a new file, and type:
Zip
save this as:
"C:\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo\Compressed
(zipped) Folder.ZFSendToTarget"

Restart Windows.

This seemed like it would work, but an error comes up when I run 'regsvr32
zipfldr'. The error is 'Module zipfldr was loaded but the entry-point
DLLRegisterServer was not found. Make sure taht "zipfldr" is a valid DLL or
OCX file then try again'. Any ideas on how to get around that?

Thank you Ramesh for the help. I have tried the directions you sent below
earlier (and again now), and when that didn't work, it prompted Mark
Ferguson's response, but his suggestion led to the error I spoke of in my
last post. So, just copying the appropriate file into the SendTo folder
doesn't seem to be working. I can create a new user account where everything
works fine, but it just isn't working on my admin account. Any more
suggestions? Thank you again.

It's possible that there is an extra (and corrupt) copy of zipfldr.dll
somewhere in the local path for that user. I would search everywhere for
system and hidden files, and see if this extra zipfldr shows up. If you find
one in the Profile folders for that admin account, I would rename it and
test sendto. Since the other users are working OK, the one it ../system32 is
probably OK.

Ramesh,

Thank you immensly for the quick reply...below is copied what you
requested
I also tried what Mark Ferguson suggested, but the search for zipfldr.dll
came up empty (search used non-indexed, hidden and system files).

One possible clue: in the user accounts where this option works, the
Compressed (zipped) Folder shows up as a folder, but in the main admin
account, it shows up as a file (now defaulted to notepad).
