Renigade Posted January 30, 2013 I need a free file compression tool. It seems winzip wants me to pay for software I will not probably use again for a while . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest_Jim_* Posted January 30, 2013 I've seen this on Ninite, is the shell integration any good? Here are your options for the context menu. There are effectively repeated for the "Send To" menu. Typically I just use "Add to Archive" though as the window that gives you allows you to do whatever you want: select the compression format, amount, number of volumes, etc. From PeaZip's site: PeaZip Screenshots Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
