When you download a file, things can go wrong, resulting in a damaged copy of the file that WinZip cannot open. To avoid this problem, use the browser's "save" option, and specify an easy-to-remember folder such as a "Zip files" folder you create in Documents, the Downloads folder, or the Desktop. If you choose to open the file, you should be aware that the browser will probably delete it when the browser is closed. If you download a WinZip file, your Internet browser might give you a choice to either open the file or save it to disk.
