Can anyone please suggest an easy-to-use, free Zip / Unzip program?

I had Winzip when I was working, but my company paid for it. Someone got me to download 7 Zip, but I found it confusing.

Using Windows 10 on a Dell laptop.

2. Mac user, no recs, but a little search for free and easy to use apps

should narrow the list. Try a few until you find one that works for you.
Or you run out of energy, a familiar process.

4. Windows 10 has built-in zip archive support

Just right click any file or folder and then choose send to compressed zipped folder.

I also use 7-zip on windows if I need more fine grained control.

5. Sorry, it's been a long time since I've used any compression programs so I don't want to rec any. Good luck!

7. Another vote for 7 Zip

Used it for decades.

8. I'm able to unzip most files in Windows 10. Right click and it says, "Extract all"

I apparently have 7-zip installed, but I don't us it.


They aren't fancy files or anything that I unzip in Windows 10. Lately they've just been one file that it's compressed.

9. Thanks for replying... I'll look into that.
