Overview
ZIP Extractor® is a free app for creating and opening ZIP files on your computer and Google Drive™. 

* ZIP Extractor® supports opening password-protected files. 

* You can preview and download individual files inside the ZIP file without having to extract the whole ZIP.

* ZIP extractor® can open ZIP, RAR, TAR, 7z (7-Zip), GZIP (GZ), BZIP (BZ2), and TAR.GZ files


How to use ZIP Extractor®

1. To begin, select a ZIP file to open from Gmail™, Google Drive™, or your computer.

2. Once displayed, click on any individual file inside the ZIP to view or download it.

3. Press the "Extract" button to extract the selected files to Google Drive.

4. A new folder will be created in Google Drive™ for the unzipped files ending with "(Unzipped Files)".

5. After extraction, click "View Files" to go to the unzipped files in Google Drive™.


How ZIP Extractor® Works

* ZIP Extractor® is a pure JavaScript web app. All extraction and decompression is done on your computer, directly in your web browser, and not on any server.

* ZIP Extractor® can open password-protected ZIP files. The password is only used on your computer to open the ZIP file and is never sent over the network.

* ZIP Extractor® supports the RAR and 7-ZIP (7z) file formats, including password-protected RAR and *.7z files.

* ZIP Extractor® also supports TAR, GZIP, and BZIP files (*.tar, *.gz, and *.bz2 files).

I've been using this ZIP extractor over the last few years in personal and work settings, and it's always come through for me. A few times it's been an actual life saver, opening ZIP files from one client that uses a password format that neither my mac or chromebook could open. In general it's been a low-fuss app that I've come to rely on. The app gets out of your way and in less than a minute I can usually extract and then find my files in my Google drive. I like that I can "view" the files first before extracting. Thank you to the team that made this!! -TD

the fact that you have to install this spyware in order to rate it is disgusting. first it shows as the google default on how to extract zip files. so you install it considering it says free. then once you give it access to your whole drive with read and write permission it says hahaha gotcha you need to pay $5 to use this. how does google set this as the default for zip files. incredibly scummy was it your nephew who made this? it makes no sense why it is google default app with 66+ million users scammed.

Freaked me out! How does this developer expect me to select 1000+ files to zip 1-by-1?? What's the function of CTRL + A on windows? Then how do I even load a folder then select button is disabled? What's this thing? How does it even work? The folder is chosen, it should load and then a add to archive button should appear.

When I first used this app, it was the only way I found to unzip files inside Google Drive. Since then, the option to use File Explorer has shown up. I have never even thought about trying it. This app does everything I need, makes it easy to find the folder when unzipped and has saved me endless hours of hair pulling that I know I would have gone through without it.

Straight up lies. The entire app says free all over it yet requires payments for extractions on the same page. Useless.
