Install
If the Zip file contains a SETUP or INSTALL program
You can choose either Unzip and install or Unzip only. If you choose Unzip only, the WinZip® Wizard will proceed as for a normal Zip file: the files contained in the Zip file will simply be extracted to a folder you specify.
If you choose Unzip and install, the Wizard will perform these steps:
- Unzip the software to a temporary folder.
- Run the SETUP or INSTALL program.
- Delete any temporary files.
If the Zip file contains a desktop theme (but no SETUP or INSTALL)
The WinZip Wizard will perform these steps:
- Allow you to select a theme (if the Zip file contains more than one).
- Extract the theme definition file to a temporary folder and analyze it to determine where the theme components should be extracted.
- Extract the theme component files.
- Run the system theme installer (usually THEMES.EXE) to complete installation.
If the Zip file contains a screen saver (but no desktop theme, SETUP, or INSTALL)
The WinZip Wizard will perform these steps:
- Allow you to select a screen saver (if the Zip file contains more than one).
- Extract the screen saver to your Windows folder.
- Run the system screen saver control application to complete installation.
