How to cancel VISTA’s built-in zip function on Lenovo notebooks

Lenovo notebook Windows Vista provides support for zip files. By default, zip files are treated as a special folder: a compressed folder. Zip files can be opened, browsed and used without installing third-party extension support software. However, WinXP/Vista's integrated zip support is quite rudimentary, and many users prefer to use more professional tools, such as WinZIP or WinRAR. I hope to remove this function. Because it treats ZIP files as compressed folders, it also causes the contents of ZIP files to be searched when searching in Windows Vista, reducing the search speed and efficiency. ZIP file contents are often things that users do not need to search. .

In WinXP, you can simply turn off WinXP integrated ZIP support through "regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll" Function. For details, please refer to the knowledge base: 19956.

But in Windows Vista, you get an error message when you run "regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll" or "regsvr32 /u %windir%\\system32\\zipfldr.dll" with the specified path. In this case, you can directly modify the registry to achieve operations similar to the above in WinXP.

1. Enter "regedit" in the search box of the start menu and press Enter. At this time, Windows Vista will pop up the corresponding UAC prompt, enter the administrator password or confirm.

2. Find the following registry branch and delete it: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\CLSID\\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31}.

Note: This is equivalent to the operation of "regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll".

3. Find the following registry branch and delete it: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\CLSID\\{0CD7A5C0-9F37-11CE-AE65-08002B2E1262}.

Note: This is equivalent to the operation of "regsvr32 /u cabview.dll".

4. Restart Windows Vista-->The changes made will not take effect until Windows Vista is restarted.

Notes

The above operations involve modification of the registry, which carries certain risks. Please back up the registry before operation and proceed accordingly based on your familiarity with the operation. use.
