HelpFrequently asked questions
Can I add a complete folder to a ZIP?
Yes. Use Add folder to include its files and retain their relative folder paths. Empty folders cannot always be detected by the browser and may be omitted.
Which compression level should I choose?
Balanced works well for most files. Maximum may make text and documents slightly smaller but takes longer. Images, videos, PDFs, and other already-compressed files often shrink very little.
Can I inspect a ZIP before extracting it?
Yes. The archive list shows folders, file types, dates, and uncompressed sizes. You can search, select entries, and preview supported text formats before downloading anything.
Will extracting overwrite files on my device?
No. Extract to folder creates a new, uniquely named folder. Individual browser downloads also follow your browser's normal duplicate-file naming rules.
Why was my ZIP rejected?
The archive may be incomplete, password protected, split across multiple files, unusually large when expanded, or contain more entries than a browser can process safely.
