I dont know what has casued this but now all my backups dont have the zipped folder logo next to them in their stored location. When i try to retrieve a file S7 asks me to select a zip program. I select PKZIP 12.0 (I have always used PKZIP) but it cannot locate it? Is it possible the PKZIP is corrupted? How do I fix this as I tried to reinstall S7 and it has not fixed the problem!?!?!? Merry Christmas

You can do this settings change by following Procedure Close all opened Projects just only open Simatic Manager go to menu "Option>Customize> a new window opens here you change the tab from general to Archiving then select the Prefered archiving Button from the drop down box you will get Choices as WinZip or WinRAR. 2) Other wise you can install the PKWARE alone seperately & Specify the Path for it. Click on the side button configuring then browse for the path generally it will be C:\Program Files\PKWARE\PKZIPC\pkzipc.exe Try it out it both worked for me.
