Why can't I zip folders? 1

[fungipami]

I'm using Winzip 8.1 and I want to zip a top level folder that contains sub-folders, but all the files end up together in the zip file, with no folders. I chose the option to save the path information but when I extract the files they all go to the same folder. Isn't there a way to maintain the folders when zipping?

I believe you need to put a check in the box that says "Include Sub-Folders

Sorry, I neglected to mention that I did check the box to include subfolders, as well as the box to include full path information, but I still didn't get any folders in the zip file itself, or when I extracted everything. I was wondering if there was some other configuration setting that should be set.

If you test email it to yourself, you'll see that the sub-folder structure is there, intact - just drag and drop the main folder into winzip, and it'll all work out eveb though it doesn't look like it - with all separate files.
