*WinZip* is a file compression utility for Windows that allows you to reduce
the size of large files, and archive different files into one big file.
Traditionally the first choice when it comes to compressing and uncompressing
files, WinZip is one of the most popular downloads of all time. Despite the
fact that its competitors have caught up somewhat, it remains a simple way to
archive programs and reduce file sizes. Much of WinZip's success has been
down to its simplicity. From the outset, the program prompts you to choose
between Classic mode and Wizard mode. The wizard is great for beginners,
although even the classic interface is easily negotiated, giving you instant
access to a range of features such as compression ratios, password-protection
and a Favorites list. While archiving files in WinZip is quick and easy, you
can't help but thinking that the program has lost some ground on its
competitors. For instance, the compression rates aren't as high as they are
in *WinRAR*, and you can only save files in Zip format rather than RAR, ISO
or JAR. *Nevertheless, WinZip performs its function well, helping you archive
files quickly and effectively.*Download *WinZip 16.0* in Softonic
