If you already have a zip file that you would like to open, it is recommended that you have an archive extraction software such as WinZip or WinRAR. The zip file will be created and ready for email attachment. When the files are moved, select the folder and right click.Move the files to the new folder that you created.Identify the files you want to compress.To manually create a zip folder with multiple files in these Windows versions you just have to: However, recent Windows versions such as Windows 7, 8 and 10 do not require WinZip to create a zip file. WinZip is a program that facilitates the creation and unzipping (opening) of zip files. The main disadvantage of sending zipped files is that if a constituent file is corrupt, the whole zip file will be corrupted. Zipping files allows you to encrypt sensitive or personal data when you’re sending it through the internet.Zipped files have a much faster transmission rate when you send them by email.Zipping can reduce the original file by up to 80%.That is all you need to know about compression tools for now.Some of the advantages of using zip files are: Personally, I have been a long-time WinRAR user but looking at these objective truths I have switched camps and have become a 7-Zip enjoyer. If you do not use anything and need to make a quick decision on which tool to use then you should most likely use 7-Zip because it is free and does a better job at compressing your files while also being in constant development and improvement. If you on the other hand are already using 7-Zip, then there is no objective reason for you to bother switching to any other compression tool.
If you are used to WinRAR and you enjoyed it, you can keep using it. WinRAR – faster compression rates while using a lighter algorithm, but is paid software and results in larger files.ħ-Zip – slower compression rate and requires more resources but results in smaller files with better compression and is completely free.īased on these conclusions it really just depends on what you prefer and what you have been using prior to reading this article.
