Basics

What does File Archiver do?
Create ZIP archives from files or folders, and open existing ZIPs to download individual files or extract all — entirely in your browser.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Packing and unpacking run in your browser tab.

Create ZIP

What compression levels mean?
0 Store = no shrink, fastest. 1–3 = fast light compress. 6 = balanced default. 9 Maximum = most work for the smallest ZIP (slowest). Already-compressed media often barely shrinks at any level.
Folders?
Drag a whole folder onto the drop zone, or use Add folder. Nested paths are kept inside the ZIP.
Progress bar?
Yes — while reading files, compressing, and building the archive.
