Create a compact 7Z archive

The 7Z format is designed for efficient archiving and is a practical option for backups, source bundles, asset packages, and collections that will be opened with a compatible archive manager. Multiple files and nested folder paths can be stored in one .7z file.

Smaller output is not guaranteed because many media files and installers are already compressed. The browser also needs enough working memory for the selected files, so very large collections are better divided into manageable parts.

How to make a 7Z file

  1. Add the files you want to package, or select a folder to retain its directory layout.
  2. Keep 7Z selected, name the archive, and optionally enter a password to protect its contents and hide filenames.
  3. Click Compress Files and download the completed .7z archive.

Create 7Z file FAQ

When should I choose 7Z instead of ZIP?

7Z is useful when compact storage is important and recipients have software that can open it. ZIP is usually easier for recipients who rely only on built-in phone or desktop tools.

Can a 7Z archive include folders?

Yes. Select Folder keeps the relative directory structure, including nested folders, in the resulting .7z file where the browser supplies those paths.

Does creating a 7Z file upload my data?

The selected files remain on your device while the archive is created. The downloaded 7Z file is generated in the current browser tab.

Can I password-protect the 7Z archive?

Yes. Enter a password before compression to protect the file contents and hide the filenames stored in the 7Z archive. The same password is required to open it.

What does the recipient need to open the file?

A 7Z-compatible archive manager is required. Many dedicated archive apps support it, but some operating systems and mobile file managers do not open 7Z files by default.
