I have a problem in my zip file, when I opened it I saw: File Path: Either multipart or corrupt ZIP archive. I don't know what to do next. Does anyone know how to repair zip file.

Welcome to Mac-Forums..

The error is pretty clear on what the issue is, either you have a single of a multipart ZIP file which means you need to get the others, or more likely the ZIP file was corrupted during download/transfer. So go back and try the download/transfer again and see if the problem is fixed..

Failing that, fixing zip files is usually a little hit or miss depending on the tool. I believe tools like Winzip and others can try to fix ZIP files. Not sure anything is built into OS X to do that work..

First of all I myself created this zip file.

And I need to fix it by any method.

If you created it, the easiest solution would be to simply re-create it if you can.

Did you happen to get this zip file off of another drive, be it network or external? If so, it's possible that it got corrupt during the transfer. Try re-transferring it if that is indeed the case.
