Cool Features of 7-Zip

This tool offers strong data encryption, high compression ratios, and easy file management options. You can use it with both graphical user interface (GUI) and command-line interface (CLI).

Create Different Archive Formats

When it comes to making archives (which are basically compressed files), 7-Zip can create various formats like 7z, ZIP, XZ, BZIP2, GZIP, TAR, and even WIM. The 7z format is the special one made just for 7-Zip.

Easily Unarchive Files Too!

If you need to unpack files, 7-Zip can handle many formats as well. Just keep in mind that the packing/unpacking process might not match perfectly because creating archives involves some tricky steps like preprocessing and encryption.

Your Files at Your Fingertips!

You can quickly access different folders using right-click commands. This way you can check out their contents or extract archived files in no time! You can also add your local files to an archive or send them via email after compressing them.

Select Your Compression Options!

Diving into the compression process? You get to pick the output format for your archive, choose the compression method—like LZMA, LZMA2, or others—and decide on levels from store to ultra. Plus, you can add password protection if needed!

The Perfect Tool for Everyone!
