I think *.lzh files are compressed files just like *.zip *.rar files. If you can send me a lzh file, I can try opening it with the Archive software.

You could either use the lhaarc DOS program or just get WINRAR that handles .lzh extensions also.

another one is stuffit expander...will open jsut about any archive...adds an extension to your right click menu's..

LZH is a very very very old archiving standard...it's compresion rate wasn't that good.

still a few files around though.

LZH are files compressed with Lharc. I think WinRAR can handle them, along with most other formats..
