TweakFS Zip Utility for FSX

TweakFS Zip Utility for FSX is a smart application for unpacking Zip files obtained from FS file libraries without requesting 3rd-party Zip applications like Winrar, 7Zip, etc. The most important feature is that it has a branched display of the Zip folder structure giving you a clear view on how the files will unpack and what location is chosen.

This folder layout display can also be useful for developers interested in creating Zip files to help distribute their work and to aid in checking that no files are missing from the archive.

The application is so to say, "FSX aware," meaning that it can automatically detect the FSX folder locations. Due to this feature, it contains several useful folder locations presets, making it quick and easy to install aircraft, scenery and other add-ons which come in zip files that include folder path information.

If a zip file has been downloaded from one of the FS libraries, then it has a particular folder structure which the author has included and is required, so all files go into their correct locations. The simple general steps are drag and drop, select the "Extract & Preserve Folder Structure," verify the folder location, select the preset folder location from the drop-down box, unzip, and the process is over.
