Hi
start again but put your file in the root of the internal memory and not on your microsd...

then don't forget to install a CWM OR TWRP....

Hi, I tried to place the file at the root of the internal memory, but the option install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard still doesn't appear in the system recovery? Should I redo all the steps from the beginning?

So be it, but you're following a tutorial from 2013, so I'm asking you for your Android version... the latest version means nothing... so are you on 4.2, 4.3, or 4.4...

Do we have to pay for WinZip and therefore reboot our tablet?
