About ZIP File Creator & Extractor

A complete ZIP workstation in your browser. In Create mode, select any mix of documents, images, and media and bundle them into a single .zip archive with optional per-file folders, compression level control, and a live packing progress bar. In Extract mode, open an existing ZIP to inspect its full inner file listing (names, sizes, structure) and download individual entries or everything at once — without extracting to your downloads folder one file at a time or trusting a random "unzip online" service with your archives. Powered by the industry-standard JSZip library running entirely in your browser.

Honest Capability Note: JSZip DEFLATE/STORE compression fully client-side. Extracts ZIP/ZIPX-created standard archives; AES-encrypted and spanned (multi-part) archives are out of scope.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can it open password-protected ZIP files?

Standard (ZipCrypto) password-protected archives can be extracted after you enter the password. Archives using AES-256 encryption (e.g. from WinRAR/7-Zip with AES selected) are not supported by the browser-side ZIP engine — extract those with a desktop tool first.

What is the maximum size I can pack or unpack?

Processing happens in your device's RAM, so practical limits depend on your hardware — archives up to a few hundred megabytes work comfortably on modern machines. Free-tier per-file limits apply; Premium removes them.

Are my files uploaded when zipping or unzipping?

No. Both operations run 100% in your browser using JavaScript. Compare that with typical online unzip services, which require uploading your entire archive to their servers first.

Can I add files into folders inside the ZIP?

Yes. In Create mode each selected file can be assigned a folder path, so you can build organized archive structures (e.g. docs/report.pdf, photos/img1.jpg) before packing.
