That means that if you get a zip file, you can just right-click on it in Explorer and choose the unzip option. The application supports a wide range of Zip file formats and has a simple drag-and-drop interface for choosing and manipulating both the zipped and unzipped file.Įven better, it does a tremendous job of integrating with Windows Explorer. With WinZip though, you don't even need to worry about how this works. For example "00000011111" is effectively restated as "0圆/1x5." Apply that across a whole file and it saves a lot of space, particularly in image or video files where a lot of information is repeated (blue sky, blue sky, blue sky etc.) Zipping simply restates those strings in a shorter fashion. All computer data is made up of strings of 0s and 1s.
Zip files work in a surprisingly basic manner.
WinZip makes this complex process beautifully simple. Even in these days of high-speed broadband, it can be handy to squeeze file sizes down to save transfer time or fit onto removable media such as USB sticks.
