Create ZIP Files

10 applications in this hubLast updated: Apr 6th 2024, 05:44 GMT

The ZIP file is a data compression format containing one or more files that have been stored as they are or compressed to reduce the archive's size. 

A ZIP file can also contain metadata such as folder structure, file comments and error detection.

One of the main advantages of ZIP archives is their creation speed, although, in most cases, that also leads to one of their main disadvantage: a poor compression rate.

There are numerous applications that allow users to create ZIP archives by compressing their files.

Also, some of these utilities also offer users the possibility to protect their newly-created ZIP files with a password.
