MOSS 2007 - Vista - Upload multiple documents - zip files not visible

Question

 

We have following problem on a Vista client accessing a MOSS 2007 installation:

 

repro-scenario:

1. Go to a document library

2. Click upload in the action bar

3. Choose Upload Multiple Documents

4. A window is opened where you can select the files you want to upload: go to a directory which contains at leas 1 .zip file

 

Problem: the .zip files are not visible (they are visible in the same Windows folder as viewed by Windows Explorer)

 

This phenomenon is not reproducable on a XP client, it is only reproducable on a Vista client.

 

Anybody has had the same issue? And knows a solution?

Answer 1

This is something I too came across yesterday.  I am using Vista and if I select the Upload Multiple, I cannot even see an entry for the zip files in my folder.  However, using the single upload action, I can.

Not found a fix yet.

Answer 2

Hi Patrik,

 

My colleague has this same issue on his machine!

Ping me when you find a solution...this must be a bug.

Answer 7

I've found weird solution.

find following registry and remove and reboot.
it is related with vista internal zip folder function.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11D1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31}
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0CD7A5C0-9F37-11CE-AE65-08002B2E1262}

you should reboot after removing the registry. then you can see zip files on upload multiple documents on vista.
