The
AnyZip Quick Tutorial describes the commonly used archive related
features of the application. It contains a brief description of
each of these functions, while detailed information on these functions
can be accessed by clicking each of the items below:
Create a New Archive
Extract Files from an Archive
Update Archive
Create a Self-Extracting EXE
Create Archive
You can create a new archive by selecting
the New Archive option in the File pull down menu or by using the
keyboard shortcut. Through this option, you can create an empty
archive. You can also create an archive from an existing folder
without having to open the AnyZip application, as described under
Explorer Integration Options
For detailed information related on
how to create a new archive, please click here
Extract Files from archive
You can use this option to extract
files from an existing archive file into a folder of your choice.
The extraction can either be initiated from within AnyZip or through
the Explore Integration options offered by AnyZip.
For detailed information on how to
extract files from an archive, please click here
Update Archive
Use this option to add files to an
existing archive. This option can only be accessed from the AnyZip
Main Window. This is a convenient option to use if you are likely
to save the same information regularly - or if you are likely to
progressively update the same archive file with additional information.
Detailed information on the Update
Archive function can be found here
Creating a Self-Extracting EXE
This AnyZip option is very convenient
if you will be sending the contents of your archive to other users
- some of whom might not be familiar with extracting files from
an archive while others might not have software like AnyZip to perform
the extraction process.
You can use this option to create
an Executable file (which has the EXE extension) - when the recipient
of this file launches the EXE file, all the files and folders will
be extracted to the correct folders without the user requiring to
have AnyZip or similar software installed.
