Earlier, I have shared about Ashampoo Burning Studio free, the best CD / DVD burning software available. Now, the Ashampoo team has released Ashampoo ZIP Free, a file compression and decompression software for the Windows operating system.
The free version of Ashampoo ZIP can be used to open a variety of archive files. It can also compress and decompress files of all common formats. Using this freeware, users can open, create, edit, and read multiple archive files in various formats. There is no need to download different types of software to access different file formats.
The Ashampoo ZIP comes with a nice user interface and integrates itself with Windows File Explorer. It looks quite appealing, and in look, it is similar to the Metro screen of Windows 8. Like the Windows Start Screen, these tools’ tiles can be adjusted and rearranged according to the user’s convenience. It also has features like Jump Lists, and it displays the progress report on the taskbar icon.
Ashampoo ZIP Free supports ZIP, CAB, 7-ZIP, LHA, TAR (TAR, TAR.XZ, TAR.BZ2, and TAR.GZ), the versions of RAR files. It is also able to repair broken zip files, as well as split a zip file into multiple files.
The Ashampoo ZIP can extract files from file formats like XAR, CHM, LZMA, ZIPX, DMG, ARJ, RPM, ARC, CPIO, ACE, LZH, NSIS, SQUASHFS, CramFS, Z, ZOO, WIM plus ISO, and so on. The freeware consists of a powerful SFX wizard that creates SFX or self-extracting archives.
Ashampoo ZIP Free is compatible with all Windows versions, including Windows 10, Win 8.1 / 8 / 7, Win Vista, and Windows XP. You can download Ashampoo ZIP Free from here.
