The program has its compression format, whose name is 7z, which obviously can be compressed and uncompressed with 7zip. In addition, the program can create compressed files of the following formats: ZIP, TAR, GZIP, WIM, XZ, BZIP2, and XZ. Some formats it can decompress are ZIP, RAR, ARJ, GZIP, CAB, ISO, LZH, and more. The program can decompress the vast majority of compression formats available in the market. 7-Zip emerges as an alternative to paid compressors programs, offering very similar characteristics and allowing the management of multiple compressed file formats.
