Hi Eddie Hersh,
Thank you for choosing The Windows Vista Forum.
1.How long have you had this issue?
2.Was it working fine before?
Make sure the file download is not corrupt.
You can perform the steps present in the link below and check if it works.
Restore and Reset File Association in Windows Vista Back to Original Default
1. Click Start and then type regedit in the Start Search and press ENTER.
2. Navigate to the following registry branch:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\FileExts\[ext]
Replace the [exe] with the actual file extension that you want to restore its file type association to revert back to original Windows Vista default. If you unsure, simply browse through all the sub-key under FileExts.
3. Delete the sub-key named UserChoice.
4. Exit from Registry Editor.

Are you getting any error message?
You can try to extract items from a .zip file that contains a folder on a computer that is running a Windows-based operating system. After you do this, you may receive the following message:
Copy File
There is already a file with the same name as the folder name you specified. Specify a different name.
Try Again | Skip | Cancel
In this case, the file extraction operation fails, and a 0 (zero)-byte file, instead of a folder object, is created in the target folder.
This issue occurs when you extract the items from the .zip file either by using a drag-and-drop operation or by using the "Extract All" option.
Download the hotfix from the below article and check if it will fix your issue.
