| WinZip Wizard |

The WinZip Wizard
optional feature uses the standard and familiar "wizard" interface to simplify
the process of zipping, unzipping, and installing software distributed in Zip files. The
WinZip Wizard is not targeted at experienced users, but is ideal for the rapidly growing
number of PC users getting started with Zip files. When these users gain confidence or
want to use more advanced zipping features, the full WinZip Classic interface is just a
click away. |

Favourite Zip
Folders |
|
Win Zip lets you
organize Zip files into one convenient list that is sorted by date, making it easier to
locate all Zip files, regardless of where they came from or where they are stored. Unlike
the standard Open Archive dialog box, the Favorite Zip Folders dialog box treats the
contents of multiple folders as though they were one folder. A Search facility will find
any Zip files lost on your hard disk. |
