It has been designed to allow you to easily create or extract zip files using a Windows Explorer style interface which is familiar to most users.
Here is a screenshot which shows Bitser's interface for creating zip files. There's a Windows explorer view of your files with checkboxes to select the files you wish to include in your zip file. As you check each item Bitser will calculate its size and display a running total of your current selections.
To create a new zip file simply check the files and folders you want, select the destination directory and then click the create button to begin creating the zip file. There are a bunch of additional options available if you want to password protect or encrypt your zip file, split the file into multiple parts or increase the amount of compression applied. Bitser also lets you create your zip files directly from Windows explorer by right clicking the files and selecting Bitser from the context popup menu as shown in the screen below.
Similarly, you can extract zip files directly in Windows explorer using the extract section of the menu. You can also extract or create multiple zip files at the same time by selecting multiple items and using Bitser's 'Extract all' and 'Add to separate' features. Bitser contains a number of these unique features that not all free zip programs provide. While the program comes with a simple and clean interface , it looks a bit outdated.
Compared to other tools like PeaZip , this one supports a wide range of file formats. Moreover, the program can be integrated with Microsoft Windows Shell, letting you archive and extract files within a couple of clicks.
Unlike most file compression tools, 7-Zip comes with a built-in browser. It allows you to conveniently extract, locate, and identify archives. Since the tool integrates well with Windows Explorer, you can even view hidden files.
Additionally, 7-Zip comes with password protection for better privacy control. Like most file compression tools, 7-Zip is a straightforward program. In order to get started, you can open the main window and use the file manager to compress files. Just a simple right-click on a file can let you explore these features. Unfortunately, the file manager is not very beginner-friendly. In the first few instances, it feels complicated and tedious.
As such, whenever you wish to add a new file, the entire process needs to be started again. For beginners, it can be hard to understand all the configurable settings. The tool lacks useful tutorials to explain the several advanced features available in the program.
It allows the program to list specific features, and integrates them well with a single click. You can also use it to access zipped files, and add them to email servers for sharing.

If you need an effective and convenient way to compress and decompress files, 7-Zip will be an excellent choice. As mentioned earlier, 7-Zip comes with a simple and clean interface. Though it looks a bit outdated, you can get used to the navigation from the get-go.
The minimalist design lets you start using the program instantly. All the features and customization options can be conveniently accessed from the main toolbar. For instance, the extract button can be used to set the output directory or destination folder. Similarly, the view button allows you to access the folder history.
For instance, the program supports AES encryption , which keeps your files secure. Unlike most file compression tools, 7-Zip features a plugin for FAR manager. Additionally, it comes with a language localization feature, which allows you to switch between languages with a couple of clicks.
Currently, 7-Zip supports more than 80 languages. If you constantly work with large-sized files, 7-Zip will be a great choice for your PC. Since the tool comes with a quick installation process, you can start using it within seconds. Moreover, the simple interface allows you to navigate the program with ease.
