Bandizip Decompression Tool Download For Windows 7.22

Bandizip is a very easy compression and decompression tool which includes a long list of supported file formats (e.g. ZIP, RAR, CAB, 7Z, LZH), UNIX files types (e.g. TAR, GZ, TGS, LZMA), CD/DVD-related formats (e.g. ISO, IMG) or others (JAR, WAV, XPI).

The interface sets itself apart from other similar programs, thanks to its minimalistic appearance which enables any type of users to quickly get accustomed to Bandizip, regardless of their previous skill.

Opening an existing archive can be done by using either the file browser or the ‘drag and drop method. Unfortunately, Bandizip doesn’t contain an Explorer-based layout built into the mainframe that would have allowed you to easily browse for files. This is only available when creating a new archive.

Create new archives, split them into multiple files, and set a password

After selecting the files to include in the archive, you can specify the output destination, file name, type, splitting method, compression level, and password. Plus, Bandizip may be set to automatically delete the original files when the task is done.

The program supplies advanced users with a multitude of configurable settings regarding compression (e.g. use the Unicode filename in ZIP files, save NTFS time information when compressing), file associations, context menu integration, extraction (e.g. open the folder after extracting, set the default code page), and others (e.g. alter the default temporary location, move files to the Recycle Bin when deleting them).
