7-Zip v15.11 Beta / 9.20
The main features of 7-Zip
High compression ratio in 7z format with LZMA and LZMA2 compression
Supported formats:
Packing / unpacking: 7z, XZ, BZIP2, GZIP, TAR, ZIP and WIM
Unpacking only: AR, ARJ, CAB, CHM, CPIO, CramFS, DMG, EXT, FAT, GPT, HFS, IHEX, ISO, LZH, LZMA, MBR, MSI, NSIS, NTFS, QCOW2, RAR, RPM, SquashFS, UDF, UEFI, VDI, VHD, VMDK, WIM, XAR and Z.
For ZIP and GZIP formats, 7-Zip provides a compression ratio that is 2-10 % better than the ratio provided by PKZip and WinZip
Strong AES-256 encryption in 7z and ZIP formats
Self-extracting capability for 7z format
Integration with Windows Shell
Powerful File Manager
Powerful command line version
Plugin for FAR Manager
Localizations for 87 languages
7-Zip works in Windows 10 / 8 / 7 / Vista / XP / 2012 / 2008 / 2003 / 2000 / NT. There is a port of the command line version to Linux/Unix.
License
7-Zip is open source software. Most of the source code is under the GNU LGPL license. The unRAR code is under a mixed license: GNU LGPL + unRAR restrictions.
You can use 7-Zip on any computer, including a computer in a commercial organization. You don't need to register or pay for 7-Zip.
7z Format
7z is the new archive format, providing high compression ratio.
The main features of 7z format:
Open architecture
High compression ratio
Strong AES-256 encryption
Ability of using any compression, conversion or encryption method
Supporting files with sizes up to 16000000000 GB
Unicode file names
Solid compressing
Archive headers compressing
7z has open architecture, so it can support any new compression methods. Now the following methods are integrated to 7z:
Method Description
LZMA Improved and optimized version of LZ77 algorithm
LZMA2 Improved version of LZMA
PPMD Dmitry Shkarin's PPMdH with small changes
BCJ Converter for 32-bit x86 executables
BCJ2 Converter for 32-bit x86 executables
BZip2 Standard BWT algorithm
Deflate Standard LZ77-based algorithm
LZMA is default and general compression method of 7z format. The main features of LZMA method:
High compression ratio
Variable dictionary size (up to 4 GB)
Compressing speed: about 1 MB/s on 2 GHz CPU
Decompressing speed: about 10-20 MB/s on 2 GHz CPU
Small memory requirements for decompressing (depend from dictionary size)
Small code size for decompressing: about 5 KB
Supporting multi-threading and P4's hyper-threading
LZMA compression algorithm is very suitable for embedded applications. LZMA is released under the terms of the GNU LGPL. LZMA is also available under a proprietary license for those who can not use the GNU LGPL in their code. If you want to use LZMA code, you can ask consultations, custom code programming and required developer licenses from page for support: Send message to LZMA developer. Check also information about LZMA SDK.
7-Zip also supports encryption with AES-256 algorithm. This algorithm uses cipher key with length of 256 bits. To create that key 7-Zip uses derivation function based on SHA-256 hash algorithm. A key derivation function produces a derived key from text password defined by user. For increasing the cost of exhaustive search for passwords 7-Zip uses big number of iterations to produce cipher key from text password.
7z is a part of 7-Zip program distributed under the GNU LGPL. You can download 7-Zip sources and binaries from Download Page.
Applications that support 7z archives: WinRAR, PowerArchiver, TUGZip, IZArc.
