File Archive Utilities (Compress/de-compress Files) Utilities

Most of the files you download from internet are compressed to reduce the file size. Sometimes you also want to send files through emails and want to reduce the file size to upload files faster. You need a File Compression Utilities to carry out these jobs.

The well known file achievers are Win-Rar and Win Zip, but as I promised I will share only the free software.
Here is the free tool 7-zip, to archive files. It supports many archive formats than Win-Rar and Win-zip. 




7Zip is a softwares to shrink the file sizes, a very small and free tool to shrink the size of your files or folder up to 50% if you do compress them in the .7z format. 


Besides this it supports many of the well known file compression extensions e.g .rar, .zip bla bla bla. you can decompress .iso files even you can decompress a single file which was compressed in parts. 7 zip decompresses the files which are in parts independentaly, this is a great feature because i was unable to decompress single part of the files with WINRAR or WINZIP untill i had all of the parts of a file. 
So get download your free copy from 7zip home page.
After all every body loves free softwares with great features.
