Quick and reliable archiving is now easy
Zip Rar Extractor 2020 simplifies one of the most tedious computer tasks: managing compressed files. Its main selling point is the ease with which users can create and extract archives, tackling common formats like ZIP and RAR head-on. The developers state that working with archives has never been easier.
Zip Rar Extractor 2020 aims to be a user-friendly tool for anyone who frequently deals with large files, whether for backup, sharing, or simply saving disk space. Its overall performance and feature set to see if it truly lives up to the promise of hassle-free archiving files.
Format compatibility
Zip Rar Extractor 2020’s primary function, file extraction, performs exceptionally well. The process of unzipping standard ZIP and RAR files was quick and painless, often completed with a simple double-click. The integrated file browser is intuitive, clearly displaying archived contents before extraction. The app also supports a wide array of less common formats, providing excellent compatibility right out of the box, making it a reliable central hub.
Creating new archives is equally straightforward. The drag-and-drop interface streamlines the process of adding files, and users have solid control over compression levels and encryption options for security. However, a significant limitation in its core functionality: the compression speeds for very large folders (over 5GB) were noticeably slower compared to competitor programs. This lag can be frustrating for professional users who handle massive datasets regularly.
While the functionality is generally sound, the user interface feels dated and somewhat clunky, which is a major challenge given the 2020 branding. Navigating the settings and performing complex tasks like batch processing lacks the polished experience of modern utilities. Furthermore, the program lacks an integrated cloud backup option, a feature many contemporary file managers offer, limiting its utility for users who rely on services like Google Drive or Dropbox.
Solid tool
Zip Rar Extractor 2020 is a trustworthy and capable tool for general users who only need simple, quick extraction and basic creation features. It excels in broad format support and ease of use, delivering on the core promise of simplicity. While its outdated interface and relatively slow compression speeds for handling large archives are notable drawbacks, it successfully delivers on its promise of making basic file management.
