Answer 1

Open the folder the file was in, (Or right-click the file) Click extract. Click next a couple times then click done. The folder with the extracted file should pop up. Thats it. Then when youre on YouTube just go to the extracted file and click upload. Thats it!

Answer 2

You can't!!!!



With todays high speed internet there is really no reason to "zip" ay files. It is almost an obsolete way of trasfereing files. This was used to compress files for transfere over a slower network.



People that still do it do it from habbit or because they don't know any better...or are tring to hid span with passwords and stuff.



I NEVER D/L a zipped file anymore they are mostly viruses now....

Answer 3

Unzip the files with something- Winzip works, if you have Windows XP it has a built-in unzipper. It all depends on what files are inside then...

Answer 4

zip = packed to make it smaller, youtube only accepts video's



use something like winrar / winzip to unpack it (rightklick - unpack) and then upload it.
