Additionally, WinZip also offers numerous file management features. The WinZip file archiver creates archives in ZIP format by default, and can open archives of all popular compressed formats: ZIP, ZIPX, RAR, 7Z, TAR, GZIP, VHD, XZ, and POSIX TAR. Whenever several files such as images, documents, music, or videos, are sent as an attachment via e-mail, the files must be zipped or compressed to reduce their size. When it comes to compressing files or reading already compressed files (often referred to as “packed” or “zipped” files), the WinZip program is the go-to solution for many.
