    • It sounds like a problem with the zip file itself. Maybe corrupted when it was created, or done with some unknown program that is not recognized by WP.

      You can unzip the file on your computer and then upload everything into your Wordpress/Themes folder manually using an FTP client or your CPanel. If that doesn't work, maybe you need to get a new version of the theme - download it again from wherever you got it.

      Make sure the zip file is just the theme, and not a zip within a zip.

      Of course, if you can't even open the zip on your computer, it's obviously the zip file.

      Apart from that, maybe the theme itself is not compatible with your version of WordPress - or maybe it's not a WordPress theme. Try updating your WP and see if it helps.
