vzip150.exe (Self-extracting zip) 1029615 bytes Short: Complete zip management within Explorer. SFX, disk spanning, much more. Location: "Shell Enhancements", "Compress", or Win95 Utils VisualZIP Pro32 ------------------------------------------ Rather than being a tool used to operate on zip archives, VisualZIP is an extension for the Windows95/NT shell that provides the system with the native ability to browse and manipulate archives directly. Archives appear to the system as desktop folders, which can be opened and explored, and adding and extracting files is accomplished through the same drag and drop interface as is used for copying files within normal folders. With VisualZIP installed, the user can also run standalone applications and documents from within archive virtual folders almost as seamlessly as if they were not compressed at all. While this metaphor makes VisualZIP the ideal archive manager for the novice, it also supports a wide array of advanced features, such as: - Self-extracting archive generation - Multivolume archive creation (disk spanning) and processing - Long filename support - Full browseable directory structures within archives (also viewable in the left hand side of the explorer): no more flat listings! - Virus scanning using the default scanner (msav) or any user-supplied virus tool - Encryption and decryption, including multiple passwords per archive and on-demand password prompting. Encryption is also supported in multivolume and self-extracting archives. - Dropping onto a zip archive "folder" icon for compression - Right dragging of archives and extracting files at the drop point, even with multiple archives in a single operation. - Configurable compression levels VisualZIP is easily installed using a standard windows setup application, with no user configuration required. It can also be uninstalled at will using the Add/Remove programs applet in the control panel.
