Some issues I am having

I am new to this OS. I am using Zorin 5.2 Ultimate X64. First thing I have noticed, is that there is no clock in the bottom corner of my task bar.

Second, it says that 7-zip is installed, but I can't find it anywhere!

Hi,

right click on the panel; then on add and select what you want from the list!!.

To add things to the main menu, open the control center and click on menu, then add or remove things you want/don't want from the menu list!!.

Regards Wolfman

Or open terminal and write

Code:

killall gnome-panel

to reload the panel bar, because for sure there is a clock as default in it.

With Linux I don't use 7Zip I use
tar
gzip
bzip

however you can use 7zip ... just not the same way you are used to in Windows.
the package the 7zip is in is called p7zip
It is a command line utility

the commands (or the ones I found after loking for about 20 seconds are)

7z
7za

both are 7zip kinda, one is also compitiable with the tar, gzip, and bzip

here is the basic usage for you

7z x [name of zip] [name of file to create]
7z a -t7z [archive.7z] [directory to archive]

Also, I haven't used 7zip, this is data I assumed from the "7z --help" and "man 7z" so in the first example, you might not need the name of the file to create.
