In WinZip today I clicked on "Check for Update" which displayed a window which announced "Your Software is out of date" and displayed an advertisement for an "Upgrade" to purchase another Corel WinZip product a "WinZip Suite" w/ no means to update to be seen. I sent a nasty note to their support. Their explanation was the reason the advertisement was presented is because WinZip is programmed to do so!? Of course I again sent a nasty response to that one. Upon inquiring further I learned there is no "Update" other than by purchase. I sent another nasty note to support requesting they inform Corel President I will never purchase a Corel product as this one is so deceitful.
Furthermore after above unpleasantries upon opening web browser I am confronted w/ this www.dropbox.com[^] Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

I made the mistake of purchasing a WinZip license once, many many years ago. I then spent years trying to get them to stop sending me spam emails promoting the latest version, despite repeatedly opting out of all email. In the end, I just had to block the entire domain.

Since 7-Zip[^] is free, I don't understand why anyone would ever pay for a different zipping tool.

You are quite right. I even have 7-Zip installed on my machine though it rubbed me the wrong way I don't recall why exactly as it's been a while. I don't recall why I purchased WinZip. May I please inquire does 7-Zip support batch file processing. If it does I will stop utilizing WinZip which does support it but one only knows it if one inquires of Corel re/ same. Maybe they will even tell me if my shoes are on fire if I inquire politely.

It's been a long time since I've used WinZip, so I can't remember exactly what "batch processing" it offers. But you can use 7zip from the command-line - try 7z --help to see the list of commands and switches you can use.

Thank you for directing me to 7-Zip. It supports a "@listfile" argument which no doubt is a batch file. Precisely what I need. I still require the ability to see the archive contents and the heirarchy therein and the ability to move things around within the archive via cut copy paste etc. just as one can in Windows Explorer. To my surprise 7-Zip does not seem to provide this even though it duplicates much of this functionality for source files on permanent storage. The archive itself remains hidden from view. So I guess I'm stuck w/ WinZip. The horror.

@ListFile is a file that contains a list of all the files to backup, useful when they are scattered about a bit

usual gotcha with 7zip is do NOT use -r unless you really understand it. It isn't recurse sub directories but forces 7zip to search the disk for matching file names not as intuitive as it could be

If you right click on a *.7zip file, then you get a 7-zip context menu. In that sub-menu there is an option to "Open Archive". You can also open that archiving program directly from c:\Program Files\7-zip\7zFM.exe (FM = file manager).

Once you have the archive open, you can do what you want with the files within.

Hope that helps,

Bond

Thank You for directing me to 7-Zip. Unfortunately upon test I found its GUI more clunky than WinZip's. Virtually unusable if attempting to view and manipulate archive contents. It seems I am stuck w/ WinZip. Perhaps this is why I purchased it.

I, too, use 7-Zip. And am proud to say I’m one of the handful of people who paid (donated) for WinRAR. I had WinZip many years ago.

The only reason I've ever needed to use WinZip is when I had the need to create a self-extracting archive. I don't believe 7zip does that. Other than that, one use case, I really prefer 7zip.
