Which Zip File extractor do you use?

Drewcifer · 07-11-09, 05:08 PM

I'm going about my bussiness about to try a couple mods and low and behold winzip says it's free period is up. So before I go out and google a bunch of names and weed thru virus infested waters I thought I'd ask you guys which ones do you use? Free ones.

Hi...I use '7zip':

WinRar. It's a trial based program too but all you get is a pop up saying your trial is up. I can still zip and unzip with it.

I use ZipGenius ver.6.0.3.1150. Free download.

Winrar coveres basically everything that needs to be unzipped...

7-zip covers even more than WinRar and is a completely free program, not shareware, sampleware, crippleware, trialware, but open source free forever, not stolen. And I like the fact that it just works without any fancy interface. Double click and 7-Zip goes to work without ads, fuss or excessive flash.

I used 7zip for .7z files and ExtractNow for everything else. For me its just more convenient.
