I had the same problem, what I did is run the regsvr32 command and then went to c:\windows\system32 and renamed the zipfldr.dll to zipfldr.dlo. Problem solved. Next time I clicked on a Zip file it asked me which program to use, so I selected the one I wanted and marked "always use this program". Why microsoft makes things so complicated????
