What is a 7z file?

A file with a .7z extension utilises the 7z compression algorithm to package and compress files. The file format is used primarily to bundle multiple files for easier distribution or backup.
It utilises the open sourced LZMA compression method to pack data without quality degradation (i.e. lossless compression) The compression ratio of 7z is higher than a lot of the other commonly used archiving file formats.
