<!-- Delete the Categories that do not apply --> [[Category:File Compression]] [[Category:Encryption]] = Description = 7-Zip is a file archiver with a high compression ratio [http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/editorial/?source=psp]. You can use 7-Zip on any computer, including a computer in a commercial organization [http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/editorial/?source=psp]. You don't need to register or pay for 7-zip [http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/editorial/?source=psp]. 7-Zip works for Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2008, 2003, 2000, NT, ME, and 98 [http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/editorial/?source=psp]. Most of the source code is under the GNU LGPL license [http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/editorial/?source=psp]. The unRar code is under a mixed license with GNU LGPL + unRAR restrictions [http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/editorial/?source=psp]. Check the license for details [http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/editorial/?source=psp]. === Platform === 7-zip can be utilized on multiple platforms including Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2008, 2003, 2000, NT, ME, and 98 [http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/editorial/?source=psp] = User Experiences = 7-zip can be used to open an ISO Image File[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_image]. In order to secure a transfer along untrusted lines, 7-Zip can encrypt containers with AES-256. For securing fixity: 7-Zip records checksums on compression and verifies them on decompression. 7-Zip can handle containers larger than 2 GigaByte (unlike tools for the genuine ZIP format). And there is a port of the command line version to Linux/Unix [http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/editorial/?source=psp]. = Development Activity =
