Converting zip file to war file

I converted a war file into a zip file to do some customizations. Renaming it shows it as war file but with a zip icon and zip extension in properties. How do one convert a zip file back into a war file?

my guess is you actually didn't renamed it back to war file. In windows, there is an option to Hide extensions for known file types.

If that is checked, you probably just renamed to fileName.war.zip
