In addition ZIP files help you to send a large number of files through internet. You can zip number of files and can make a one file using zipped program.

Although you can break a large files into small pieces using zip program.

You should have external software for unzip files in windows. You can use free software like WinZip or WINRAR to unzip files.

Download WINRAR and install it to your computer.

Then Right-click on zip file and you will get options like Extract files, Extract Here, etc.

Then click on the extract here button and you will get your zip file extracted in into the current location.
