Hello OldGrantonian,

Turning "compressed folders" off will stop this for you.

Zip File Compressed Folders

Hope this helps,

In Windows Explorer, the *contents* of ZIP files are displayed. For various reasons, I find this distracting. I preferred the way that XP (and earlier) displayed the file name only.

Is there any way that I can switch off this feature?
