In a later part of this patch there's a commented out test `testCommonExtensions` which deals with these extension types and that has a link to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types/Common_types which states that `.zip` should be mapped to `application/zip` instead of the current `application/octet-stream`, so I'm guessing this changed line is intentional. On an unrelated note, the unix variant of this file `src/java.base/unix/classes/sun/net/www/content-types.properties` interestingly uses `.z` for `.zip`? Commit history on that file doesn't provide any hint on whether that is intentional either. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/5505
