    Softpedia Editor's Review for Express Zip File Compression Software

    EDITOR'S RATING:

    Create, manage and extract zipped files and folders

    Written by Elena Opris on April 20th, 2012

    Express Zip File Compression Software is a software designed to help you compress files and extract content from archives.

    The interface of the tool is clean and intuitive. So, you can create a new archive by selecting the files you want to compress.

    Unfortunately, you cannot specify the output name and destination every time you create a new archive. Instead, you have to go to "Options" and input the default values there.

    In the list you can check out the name, compressed and original size, percentage, path and date of each file that's included in an archive. Extraction is easy - all you have to do is specify the output location.

    In addition, you can set the compression level (from fastest to smallest), rename archives and remove files from them, secure your compressed files with a password, split ZIP archives (by size only), and more.

    In "Options" you can integrate Express Zip File Compression Software into the Explorer context menu, disable it from prompting when using "QuickZip", select the email sending method (directly or via SMTP server), configure message options (e.g. default reply mail), make file associations, enable to open the folder browser after unzipping, and more.

    The software runs on a low-to-moderate amount of system resources, includes a comprehensive help file for beginners, has a very good response time and didn't freeze, crash or pop up errors during our tests.

    On the other hand, the features are a little cluttered. Aside from the fact that you have to access "Options" every time you want to change the output location and archive name, the "compression level" feature is placed in the File menu.

    All in all, Express Zip File Compression Software doesn't actually come up with something new for a compression tool but we suggest you test it for yourself to see if it fits your preferences.
