I have a problem as I try extracting a Zip File the message indicates that windows cannot open the folder further indicating that the zipped folder is invalid. Another error message appears to: WZ54 meaning there is transfer error and damage to the file. Can someone please advise me on the diagnosis of the problem? Your help will be highly appreciated.

That may be a problem that is being caused by the application that you are using to archive the files. It may be having licensing issues and therefore you will need to check if the application was a trial version and its period of usage is over.

If the application is corrupt, you will need to do the following:

Get the setup for that application and then re-install it. Re-installation will fix any bugs that may have developed in the application that are causing that problem to occur.

An alternative will be to find another application that serves the same function and install it, and I will recommend that you try WinRAR which I have used and my experience with was good.
