Any working unzip programs?

[Deleted member 5665]

I can't download or unzip any .zip files.. Like if I downloaded mybb it will say redownload it again.. It keeps saying that.. Is there any actual working .zip programs? That work.. or I can't make websites anymore 🙁 because I need a zip program to download my databases, etc.

WinRAR is a good zip program.

 

[JayJACKEL!]

Yeah, use WinRar. Its free too.
Either that, or Right click > Send to > Compressed Zip folder.

WinRAR - http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm

Install that program then

When the zip file is downloaded just right click it and click extract here, easy as that. 😀

7zip is nice and lightweight too.

7zip is a free one. WINRAR is trailware so I prefer 7zip.

IZArc is also pretty good. 7-Zip is good as well.

OSX, Windows, Linux?

My personal favourite is IZArc

I suggest WinRaR as well..but I used to use UnZipThemAll.

I believe Windows XP and up also come with a built-in Zip program, but it is not as good as 7-7ip in my experience.

It does,but it cannot unzip files like tar.gz .rar .tar .7zip etc..

WinRAR is purty and easy to use, so I'd just go with that.

7zip! If you have a 64 bit machine you might want to install both 32 bit and 64 bit versions for full compatibility.

i have been using winzip for free forever... so i would use that, in my opinion it is the best.

 

[Mr.Hazey]

I use 7zip and its great, recommend you give it a go
