Windows XP - Extracting files from a xipped compressed folder

- YOU CAN PROTECT ZIPPED COMPRESSED FOLDER WITH A PASSWORD (PW).
- YOU MUST PROVIDE THE PW BEFORE THE FILE CAN BE EXTRACTED.
- HOW CAN YOU EXTRACT THE FILE IF YOU FORGOT THE PW ?

This is the wrong newsgroup for your question, but to answer it--you can't
extract it without the password and you can't recover it.
