How To Recover Deleted Files On A Macby macandcomputerhelp133,088 views
@blueblob4 I'm afraid an alias alone is worthless. It simply points to the real file. If the real file is gone then all you have left is a signpost pointing to something that's no longer there.
Word is not likely to be able to open zip files. Try double-clicking the zip file to unzip it. If there's a file inside that Word could open then you may be able to open that file.

Is there any way to recover a file that's just an alias? I don't know how it happened, but I only have an alias of an important word document so I can't open it. I also have a zip file, but word won't open it. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks.
