I'm working at home, on my mac laptop, and need to send some docs to my office pc so that I can print them tomorrow.
I've archived the folder on my mac to create a zip file and emailed it to my office pc which is windows. Should it be able to open it in theory?
Thank you

Should be able to open the zip file. XP has built in support for zip files, for older versions of MS Windows you can use winzip (https://www.winzip.com). Whether it can open the files within the archive depends on what types of files. Office files?0
