Hamster ZIP Archiver is currently occupying a space in my Windows based system as its main file manager. And I must say that it has quite an impact because of the fact that its interface is so pleasing to the eyes and the simplicity of operation. It also is very efficient in its functioning and its functions are flawless when it comes to the job that it was designed to do. This software is available for download on its official website for those who wanted to get their hands on it, but could not because of one reason or other. The Windows operating system that this software is running on does not support Zip files in its basic form, hence hamster ZIP archiver had to be developed to run under Windows.
Hamster FREE Zip Archiver grabbed attention, not just because of its great functionality, but due to its user-friendly design and easy interface. The free software application can be utilized to either make or download compressed archives. It supports both 7z and zip archives on both creation and extraction sides of things, thus making it versatile. You can also drag and drop files from one location to another using its context menu. Furthermore, the software has several other features including support for multiple profiles, hidden directories, creation of subfolders and a lot more.
Like all other Zip application, Hamster FREE Zip Archiver does not support some important archive formats such as BZ, GZ, TIF, PPT, PDF and several others. So, if you really wanted to try out this software, you would have to download its trial version first, before you could actually install the software in your computer. It has a very basic installation process and only requires a few minutes of your time. After the installation is complete, all you would need to do is launch the software and let it make your compressed Zip archives on your computer.
