Just use the Search box on the upper right corner of your screen to type a file extension; say .zip<\/p>\n<p>Search results will accumulate on your screen. Sort them out by title; not based on file types or sizes. Use the Ribbon interface in case of Windows 8.1\/ 8. In case of earlier versions, right-click an empty area of your screen and sort them out properly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zip File Type Zip is the most commonly used archive file format.
