no, it's a .htm file - look at the properties screenshot that you posted - go to "show known file extensions" or rename it to end in .zip as opposed to .htm

Honestly, as already stated several times, just use 7zip. Far more efficient and has far more features than any compression utility that Windows has created.

Agree. BTW after a little googling it does look like Windows 8 does have native unzip much like Windows 7 did. You should not NEED a program but in this case z7 should fix the OP up.
