Aaron_ Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 My vote for Winrar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zxian Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 WinRAR is the easiest to use IMO. 7-zip gives better compression in most cases, but sometimes not! I made SFX installers using 7-zip and WinRAR for Photoshop, and the 7-zip installer came out 500kb larger... Overall WinRAR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dman Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I love freeware and IZArc does everything I need. Handles RAR, 7z, ACE plus every other format you can think of. Makes nice self-extractors too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 7zip offers the best compression, though WinRAR does have several features, but not free and PA is ok too, especially with its archive converter, but I found it was kinda buggy. 7zip gets my vote for being free and simple.

techniquefreak Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 (edited) WinRAR is my favourite - been that way for decades - and the "demo" continues to work which is fine so really - WinRAR it is!

Wesmosis Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Winrar for sureI always use the Corp edition 3.50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleepnmojo Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 i find 7z gives me the best compression most of the time, especially if you know how to use the parameters, but I voted winrar. It is the most well rounded, and gives pretty good compression overall. I use winrar for my everyday activities, which I can't say I do with 7z.

RJM Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 (edited) I generaly use 7-zip, but for the best compression I use WinUHAIt's a little slow but it compresses about 30% better than winzip.http://www.softpedia.com/get/Compression-tools/WinUHA.shtml Edited August 11, 2005 by RJM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
