t0nZ Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Always searching for the "final" solution to my zipping/unzipping needs, I started years ago using WinRar with AutoIT (don't ask me why...) and for the last 10 years I worked well with the _zip.UDF , a good solution using the embedded windows zipfldr.dll. But often I work with a lot of data (both multi gigabytes and/or 100K+ files) and I noticed the performance of the windows zip DLL are not so good, the problem is maybe worsened by the mono thread operation using AutoIT + zipfldr.dll. SO my choice is 7zip (7ZA.exe) also for licence (freeware also for business) reasons, and I wrote a small and simple UDF: expandcollapse popup; #INDEX# ======================================================================================================================= ; Title .........: _7za ; AutoIt Version : 3.3.16.0 ; Language ......: English ; Description ...: Functions for using 7za.exe archive manipulation app ; Author(s) .....: NSC ; Version .......: 1.2 ; Date ..........: 2022/06/28 ; =============================================================================================================================== ; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ; This software is provided 'as-is', without any express or ; implied warranty.

Daily I use most of the time: _UNcompress_7za _COMpress_7za_7z so I'am almost done with these funcs.... Also I made a quick and dirty benchmark on some real world data (for me at least) , comparing the windows DLL, the zip ULTRA by 7zip and the various 7zip levels. My choice is level 4 (time/size) but your mileage may vary... Also, extracting many thousands of little files from a 7z archive with 7zip is waaaay fast in respect to other solutions. netmaple 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
