Frequently Asked Questions

Our ZIP Creator can handle:

  • Individual files: Up to 500MB each
  • Total archive size: Up to 1GB
  • Number of files: Up to 1000 files
  • Folder depth: Up to 10 levels deep
For larger files, consider splitting them first or using maximum compression. All processing happens in your browser, so performance depends on your device capabilities.

We offer multiple levels of password protection:

  • Standard ZIP 2.0: Basic password protection
  • AES-128: Medium security (default)
  • AES-256: Military-grade encryption
  • Filename encryption: Hides file names in archive
For maximum security, use AES-256 with a strong password (12+ characters with mixed case, numbers, and symbols). Remember, lost passwords cannot be recovered.

Choose compression based on your needs:

  • Store (No Compression): Fastest, use for already compressed files (ZIP, JPG, MP4)
  • Fast Compression: Quick processing, moderate compression (for speed)
  • Normal Compression: Balanced speed and size (recommended for most uses)
  • Maximum Compression: Best compression, slower (for text files, backups)
Text files compress best (up to 90% reduction), while already compressed files show little improvement.

Yes! Our ZIP Creator fully supports folder structures:

  • Drag & drop entire folders with all contents
  • Use "Add Folder" button to select folders
  • Folder hierarchy is preserved in the ZIP
  • Nested folders up to 10 levels deep
  • Option to flatten structure (all files in root)
  • Preview folder tree before creating ZIP
This is perfect for backing up project folders or organizing files by category.

Absolutely! All file processing happens locally in your browser:

  • End-to-end encryption for password protection
Your privacy and security are our top priorities. The ZIP creation uses JavaScript libraries that run entirely in your browser.
