Large files are usually compressed for storage and transmission purposes. Compression allows for quick upload and download of files from the internet. Such compressed files are called archive files. There are many different archive file formats available among which .zip, .rar, .7z are most common.<\/p>\n

Zip files use lossless compression technique, hence zipping or unzipping a file as such does not cause the loss of data. However, downloading these files from the internet may cause corruption. Some reasons why you cannot open the Zip files and potential solutions are described in this article.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Header file inconsistencies<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Due to the nature of open source format, it is possible to download a Zip file with a simple header issue. The Zip file has structure information in a file called Zip Note. Header file information should be similar in both the files. Any minor mismatch or incorrect extensions can cause corruption in the Zip file and you cannot open them. In order to solve this problem obtain a new copy of the file or download the Zip file again.<\/p>\n

    2. CRC Error<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Another common error associated with Zip files is CRC error. CRC stands for Cyclic Redundancy Check. When a Zip file is created, WinZip calculates a CRC value for the file. Again when files are extracted, CRC value is calculated and the two values are compared. CRC error message is displayed when there is a mismatch in the two values. When this happens, invalid data is introduced into the file. To fix this problem, try downloading the Zip file again.<\/p>\n

    Sometimes downloading Zip files again does not help you solve the problem and extract Zip files. Or you may also encounter errors such as \u2018Unexpected end of data\u2019, \u2018Not a valid archive\u2019 or \u2018cannot open Zip file, access denied\u2019.
