Archiver	Mozilla Firefox		Google Earth
	65 files 85 280 391 bytes		483 files 110 700 519 bytes
	Compressed size	Ratio	Compressed size	Ratio

WinRAR 5.20 -m5 -s -ma5 -md128m	41 789 543	106%	17 035 432	107%

Read the full changelog

There was a time when computer applications were few and a specific tool was used for each task one wanted to perform, such as image viewing, archiving files or converting videos. Nowadays, however, the market has a lot more alternatives for each area, and when it comes to archives, 7-Zip is definitely an app worth taking into consideration.

Intuitive with support for most archive formats

Installing it is a simple procedure and it all takes only a few seconds since you have to deal with such a light package. The interface is the same as the ones we’ve seen in other compression tools, but 7-Zip also includes a powerful file manager, so browsing the files stored in archives is really simple.

The tool supports most archive formats out there, including RAR, ZIP, TAR, GZ, LZH, LZA, ARJ and ISO, but it also comes with its very own extension, namely 7z.

Enhanced usability with context menu entries

You will be amazed by how fast 7Zip compresses and decompresses files and the fact that it automatically places a bunch of options in the Windows context menu makes the whole thing a lot easier, while also saving a lot of time when it comes to managing archives. Those who do not like to have a cluttered Windows context menu can easily remove the 7-zip related items whenever they please.

Helps you save precious disk space

As expected, compression is a smooth operation and in case you really want to save some space on your hard drives, 7-Zip might come in very handy. Just right click the files you want to compress, select the function you need and you’re ready to go.The default 7z format is better (compression rate wise) than the standard ZIP format and goes head to head with RAR format, with the mention that 7z is an open source format.

Check archived files for integrity

A feature not typically encountered in file compressors is the checksum calculator, meant to help you verify the integrity of any downloaded package. The Benchmark function also comes in handy when you want to test the performance of your computer.

In conclusion

All in all, 7-Zip is the compression tool that you need to install if you are not willing to pay for a license for one the other similar apps on the market. It is freeware and works with so many formats that you are bound to be satisfied with it.
