How do I unzip a .zip file?

How to unzip on Windows 11:


  • Locate the zipped folder that you want to unzip (extract) files or folders from.
  • To unzip all the contents of the zipped folder, right-click (or press and hold) the folder, select Extract All..., and then follow the instructions.



How to unzip on Mac (High Sierra and above):


  • Double-click the .zip file.
  • The unzipped item appears in the same folder as the .zip file. If you want to, you can delete the .zip file.


Note: If you can’t open the .zip file, make sure you have enough space on your Mac for the unzipped item.


If you are on an older device, there are free apps that can be used to unzip your files, such as WinRAR, iZIP, 7-Zip, or WinZIP. You can also message our support team and we will be happy to help.
