Fix for Zip Files - Use 7Zip

If you try to extract a zip file and nothing happens, and you are on a windows machine (dell laptop, not a chromebook) then download this application, navigate to the zip folder, and click the blue extract button. When you first open the app, it may open directly under your c: drive or possibly G: drive if you have google drive filestream installed. This is not a problem, you just have to navigate to your user folder if you have a zipped file in a user folder like downloads, desktop, documents, etc. 

To do so, just click the drop down and follow the file path as shown in the example.
