What is a ZIP file?
A ZIP file is the most widely-used compressed archive format for storing multiple files and directories in a single compressed file. It combines archiving and compression capabilities, allowing users to bundle files together while reducing their overall size through lossless compression algorithms. The ZIP format makes it easy to share collections of files and is supported across virtually all modern operating systems.
ZIP files use the DEFLATE compression algorithm by default, providing good compression ratios while maintaining fast compression and decompression speeds. The format supports advanced features including password protection, directory structures, and file metadata preservation. Its universal compatibility and ease of use have made ZIP the standard format for file compression and distribution on the internet.
