Windows version

I saw article for "Windows up to 11" I don't know if the version older support zip file. 47.234.198.142 (talk) 00:08, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ZIP files themselves are not very operating-system specific. It's whether the software to compress and uncompress them is supported on an operating system. The first PKZip version which supported "flate" compression was released before Windows 3.1, when most X86 computers were still running MS-DOS. Info-ZIP was ported to a wide range of operating system. AnonMoos (talk) 18:33, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
