PeaZip Portable, WinRar WinZip
alternative file archiver

is
a standalone totally self-contained
software file
archiver and compressor: compress files, open and extract 200+ archive
types, convert
existing archives, encrypt data,
secure delete, file

etc...
This software provieds a complete portable alternative for
WinZip, WinRar and similar tools, with additional advantage of no
installation being required to use the application.
The portable
version provides same
set of features and
supports same file formats - 7Z, ACE(*), BR, CAB, ISO, RAR / RAR5(**),
sfx
self
extracting archives, TAR, ZIP,
ZIPX, ZST... -
as PeaZip but, as it does not
need to be
installed, it does not modify the host system.
This is
the
best solution
to bring a complete zip & unzip / unrar software with you (i.e. on
an USB drive), make it available
from network (a single copy on a shared disk for multiple clients), or
simply to try the application's features; for same
reason

the best choice whenever it is not allowed or desired to
modify the host machine's operating system:
