PLEASE CHANGE SO IT DOESN'T DOWNLOAD AS A ZIP FILE!!!

Hi tbhask,

Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities. We noticed that you recently reviewed Download iCloud photos and videos. As mentioned in that article, files downloaded from iCloud may be zip files. However, those files can be unzipped using the guidance from Microsoft here - Zip and unzip files.

1.Locate the zipped folder that you want to unzip (extract) files or folders from.

2.Do one of the following:

•To unzip a single file or folder, open the zipped folder, then drag the file or folder from the zipped folder to a new location.

•To unzip all the contents of the zipped folder, press and hold (or right-click) the folder, select Extract All, and then follow the instructions.

You're also welcome to leave feedback for Apple regarding how files are downloaded from iCloud - Product Feedback - Apple.

Take care.

tbhask,

Have a nice day.
