Solved Opening .zipp files in GRBL 3.6.1

So, I am currently buying the components to build Edward's CNC Needle cutter and I've been familiarizing myself with Inkscape and the GRBL controller software.

I downloaded a few G Code files from the FB group page and can get the FT Edge files to open in the controller. They look good to my inexperienced eye. When I tried to open the Corsaire or P 38 files in the controller I get this:
Corsair G Code in GRBL controller.jpg

If I open the file in note pad I get 100+ pages of gobble de gook. The difference is the corsair and p 38 files are .gcode.zipp files. Is there an unzipp process that I am skipping?

Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, But I had to be sure to rename it before downloading. Once I downloaded the .zipp file it would not allow me to change it. I had to "copy link" and make the changes there before downloading. once I figured that out, everything worked perfectly.
