How can I view the photos sent to me in an e-mail that are compressed in one folder? Do I need any software?

Hello, If you would have said what the compression of your files was, it would be an easy answer.....if the file is in .zip format, you do not need any extra software, you can open it with windows extraction tool. If it is in .rar, you need extra software like either winrar which is a paid software or with 7-zip wich is freeware. Both winrar and 7-zip can open several formats.
