windows me extractor

hey,
i liked the fact that windows me comes with it's own file extractor (like winzip, but it comes with windows me)....however, i installed winzip for some reason, and now i want to go back to the original program... i don't want to install windows all over again, so i need to know is there a way that i can get the old extractor to work instead of winzip??

p.s. i tried going to "open with..." and looking for the program that windows me uses, but i didn't know what it was called...

please help...

Lucas

    Open your Add/Remove programs box and select the windows setup tab... go to accessories and click details then de-select the compressed folders icon. click ok then get back into accessories and re-select the compressed folders. Windows should now re-load the program and shell extensions.
