This is the latest version of WinZip, the world"s most popular file compression and extraction utility. The program"s well-developed interface allows you to zip and unzip files with drag-and-drop ease. By associating the program with common compression types, WinZip automatically goes to work whenever you click a supported file. The program also integrates into the Windows shell context window, so you can perform many tasks without leaving Explorer.
What"s new:
- Shortcut menus for files in the WinZip Classic interface main window now include commands associated with the file"s generic type, if one is defined
- WinZip now supports the What"s This? menu for many dialog controls
- The animated dialogs that appear when adding or extracting files now include a progress meter
- WinZip now supports the New, Open, Favorites, Close, Print, and Send (mail) keys on keyboards with these "application" keys
- The confirmation dialog that appears when a file will be overwritten during an extract operation has been modified to more closely resemble standard Windows overwrite dialogs
