Did you just receive e-mail with a Zip file attached to it, or did you just download a Zip file and don't know what to do with it? Here is where ZipOnSnap helps you.

ZipOnSnap, the simple and easy to use compression utility for Windows, is a powerful and easy-to-use tool that quickly zips and unzips your files to conserve disk space and greatly reduce e-mail transmission time. ZipOnsnap v1.0 is completely free.

What are Zip files?

Zip files are single files, sometimes called "archives", that contain one or more compressed files. Zip files make it easy to keep related files together and make transporting, e-mailing, downloading and storing data and software faster and more efficient. The Zip format is the most popular compression format used in the Windows environment, and ZipOnSnap is the most popular compression utility.

Why do people use Zip files?

Zip files compress data and therefore save time and space and make downloading software and transferring e-mail attachments faster. Typical uses for Zip files include:

· Distributing files on the Internet: Only one download is required to obtain all related files, and file transfer is quicker because the archived files are compressed.

· Sending a group of related files to an associate: When you distribute a collection of files as a single Zip file, you benefit from the file grouping as well as compression.

Saving disk space: If you have large files that are important but seldom used, such as large data files, simply compress the files into a Zip file and then unzip (or "extract") them only when needed

Where does ZipOnSnap fit in?

To store files in a Zip file, or to access the files in a Zip file, you need a compression utility such as ZipOnSnap. ZipOnSnap makes it easy for Windows users to work with archives. ZipOnSnap features a standard Windows point-and-click drag-and-drop interface for viewing, running, extracting, adding, deleting, and testing files in Zip files. Occasional and first-time users can choose to use the intuitive ZipOnSnap Wizard.

To create a new Zip file, open ZipOnSnap in the ZipOnSnap Wizard mode. (If the ZipOnSnap Wizard does not open by default, just click the Wizard button in the toolbar.)

To try the Classic interface, simply click the ZipOnSnap Classic button in the ZipOnSnap Wizard. Extensive program help is available for every aspect of ZipOnSnap Classic operation.
