Bandizip is All-In-One Free Zip Archiver. 100% freeware, Unicode support
Bandizip is All-In-One Free Zip Archiver.
It's is Lightweight, Fast, and Free archiving software and it works with WinZip, 7-Zip, WinRAR and other archive formats.
Bandizip supports for ZIP, ZIPX, RAR, 7Z, ARJ, ALZ, EGG, LZH, TAR, BH, GZ, BZ2, JAR, ISO, CAB, WIM, XZ, Z, ACE, TXZ, TLZ, PMA, and J2J archives files and users can create ZIP, ZIPX, TAR, TGZ, EXE and multi-volume (split) archives files.
Bandizip has very fast Zip algorithm for compression & extraction by Fast Drag and Drop and High Speed Archiving function.
When you archive multimedia files (AVI, WMV, MP4...) or archived files (ZIP, RAR, 7Z...), you can't get good compression results. These files are hard to compress and sometimes the file size could be bigger than the original one. Bandizip's High Speed Archiving function will allow you to compress or bypass the files its own algorithm. It will increase the archiving speed dramatically.
A number of file archiving software extract files to temporary folder, and then it copies the files to the targeted folder. Bandizip's Fast Drag and Drop function does not use temporary folder, and it just extracts to the targeted folder directly. It will increase the extraction speed dramatically.
Another advantage of Bandizip is that it supports Unicode system perfectly. Bandizip has Code Page, and it will allow you to select a language in archive without breaking international characters.
With Fast Drag and Drop, High Speed Archiving, and Code Page functions, Bandizip might be the sensation in archiving software market.
What's New: Added Hebrew language file by Ronen Nisanov. Bandizip now uses LZMA instead of LZMA2 when packing .7z files.

• It has a big drawback. It installs only for one user. In Windows 7, when logged in as administrator user account (good practice when running installers) and install Bandizip, it installs only for the admin user account. When another standard user account on the PC tries to use Bandizip. there is no right-click Bandizip context menu from Windows Explorer. That context menu exists only for the admin account. Bandizip developers are aware of this and don't see it as a problem. Their forum reply: "Sorry. Bandizip supports only "current user" and no plan to support "all users". (It is intended to avoid problems with UAC.)" This is very strange. Clearly they expect that only Windows admin accounts would want to use this. They really should learn how to install properly for Windows 7 multiple accounts, just like most software.
