Q&A: Extracting File Difficulty?

Question by Matt: Extracting File Difficulty?
I am currently working on a folder containing information on my grandfather during WWII. He had sent me two attachments each with a seperate photo of him during his service. I am unable to extract these files from what I believe is a zip folder. When I attempt to extract the files it will not allow me to do so because "Windows has blocked access to these files to help protect your computer." I manually "unblocked" them through the preferences section of those files. This did not fix the issua and it blocked my access again. Does anyone have an idea on how I can fix this, or could someone extract these for me? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would ask my grandfather to resend these a different way, but hes 85 and I am not sure he knows his way to use the computer, its hard to teach an old dog new tricks.
