Zip & Unzip

• Zip and manage content

  Compressing large files and folders makes them easier to transfer and saves storage space. Choose files from your PC using simple, drag-and-drop functionality or get files you’ve stored on SkyDrive, Dropbox or Google Drive to zip instantly. Zip files are perfect for sharing because they let you organize multiple files into one convenient package.

• Unzip anything

  Extract content from the industry's widest selection of compressed file types, including Zip, Zipx, RAR, 7Zip, BZ2, LHA/LZH and many more. When extracting encrypted files, WinZip auto-wipes all temporarily extracted copies to prevent misuse.

Manage

• NEW! Convert files to PDF

  Share content the right way by converting to PDF. WinZip makes it easy to convert Microsoft Office files to PDF as you zip, making them ready to share with anyone. For extra protection, consider creating a read-only PDF.

• NEW! Create share-ready images

  Convert high-resolution images to more convenient sharing sizes instantly when adding them to your Zip. This lets you share entire albums with ease while keeping full-quality originals on file.

• Preview files and folders

  WinZip's convenient previewing functionality lets you browse the contents of a Zip before deciding if you need to unzip it. The advanced 'Unzip and Try' feature lets you temporarily review related components within a Zip (such as an HTML page and its associated graphics) without having to extract the Zip first.

Protect

• Secure confidential information

  Protect your files from unauthorized access by applying banking-level security with 128- or 256-bit AES encryption. For extra security, set your own password policy by defining complexity requirements that WinZip will enforce for you.

• NEW! Add watermarks

  Deter unauthorized copying, add traceability and protect your intellectual property by adding custom watermarks to images and PDFs. You control how and where the watermark appears.

Back up and protect files with WinZip Pro

Keep your files safe forever by upgrading to WinZip Pro. In addition to WinZip's comprehensive file compression, encryption and sharing features, WinZip Pro adds essential backup tools to protect you against data loss.

• Back up your files, automatically

  Back up your documents, email, desktop, favorites, pictures, libraries and more with just a click by setting up custom jobs to automatically zip and archive your important files. Simplify the process and free yourself from repetitive zipping and archiving tasks by using predefined jobs.

• Get more from portable media

  Prevent data loss by zipping and backing up your important data and burning it directly to Blu-ray Disc, CD or DVD. You choose if you want to back up your whole computer or just specific files. If necessary, WinZip Pro will automatically split your backups over multiple disks.
