You need to define the zip compressor and unpacker in compress.cfg.
For instance this for Linux:

Archiver ZIP
        Extension       ZIP
        Ident           0,504b0304
        Add             zip -jk9 %a %f
        Extract         unzip -njC %a %f
        View            unzip -v %a
End Archiver

In squish.cfg, you can change the default packer from ARC to ZIP by defining:

DefaultPacker   ZIP

If you want to keep it ARC, you will need to define when to use ZIP by
specifying it for each node that wants it.

Pack    ZIP     node1 node2 node3 ...

The latter is not needed if your default is ZIP!

That's all!

Kind regards,
