Suggested Description
WinZip brings the convenience of Windows to the use of ZIP files.
Includes PKZIP-compatible built-in zip and unzip, so PKZIP is not needed
for basic archive operations.
New in version 5.6 is built-in support for popular Internet file
formats: TAR, gzip, and Unix compress. Version 5.5 added the ability
to install, try, and UNINSTALL software distributed in ZIP files. This
feature runs the install program in a ZIP, gives you a chance to try the
program, and OPTIONALLY deletes any new files, icons, program groups,
and restores any altered INI files.
WinZip includes a powerful yet intuitive point-and-click drag-and-drop
interface for viewing, running, extracting, adding, deleting, and
testing files in ZIP, LZH, and ARC files, including self extracting
archives. Optional virus scanning support is included.
Other Information
Requirements: Windows 3.1 or later. No other programs are are required
for basic ZIP operations. Optional features require
external programs, including the shareware PKZIP/PKUNZIP
product from PKWARE, Inc. or ARJ from Robert Jung or
LHA.EXE from Haruyasu Yoshizaki. WinZip interfaces to
several programs to access ARC files and optionally runs
most virus scanning utilities, including Windows-based
virus scanners.
