Which of the non-working zippers is freeware? I want to start with the cheap ones, and hope to get some insight that's good for all of them! 
You can re-enable the native XP zip file handling using:admin wrote:Okay okay, I think I have to look at it again...

Thanks!bergfex wrote:IZArc is freeware.
I only have Squeez installed here but I made a list of some of the most famous archive tools. Maybe I have more time later to test if XYplorer works with them.

Like other (former) PowerDesk users, and users of other all-in-one tools, I really miss built in zip support. UI-wise: right-click on a zip file, provide menu item to open a new tab with the contents listed and accessible for d&d and preview. Not too fancy.... but extremely useful.mikes16 wrote:I second the wish for Zip support.
It is SO convienient in DoPus to navigate through zip files like they are folders. I work with a lot of zip files and it is nice to not have to UNZIP them to get to their content - I can just double click, the zip opens like it is a folder, then there are all the files that are zipped. Once I am done looking at them or opening them, I can back out and the zip is there. I store a lot of files as ZIPs because it takes up less space.
With ANY other zip manager I would need to unzip, view the files, then delete the unzipped directory.
More steps. Less productivity. It is all about least amount of mouse movement and least number of clicks.

Hmm, I worked the whole morning on this... and was very happy with the results.bergfex wrote:The same here with Squeez
Nobody got some good news to report?
It's the portable version of IZArc.PeterH wrote:Beg your pardon - what's IZArc2Go?
Next version will be better... as I expected IZArc behaved differently from IZArc2Go.PeterH wrote:Always the same: it looks good, but nothing is extracted...
