Thanks, Annelie! I finally got it to work. Here is what was happening. I would place focus on the zip file. I would press vo shift m, down arrow to the "open with" submenu, and when I would press down arrow to get to my choices, I heard "closing menu". But I pressed right arrow, and got into a list of open with choices, and the unarchiver was there. Thanks for your help, my file is unzipped and I'm happy.
