Winzip 8.1 final

Cheers Warp2Search, looks like Winzip 8.1, after the many beta's has been released today...

Some of the new 8.1 features :-

  • You can now select multiple Zip files in an Explorer window and extract from all of them in one operation.
  • You can now choose which items WinZip should add to Explorer's context menu for Zip files and other archives. This feature can be accessed directly from the Explorer context menu if WinZip is configured to display its context menu items as a submenu; otherwise, it is available from the Explorer Enhancements tab of WinZip's Configuration dialog.
  • There is a new Explorer context menu entry that allows you to print a list of files in a Zip file. Note that, because Print is part of the standard Windows interface, it appears in the main context menu (not in the WinZip submenu) and has no WinZip icon.
  • You can now extract directly to recently used folders or to the open folder from the Explorer context menu. This means that, in combination with the existing extract options, you can perform most of the commonly used extract operations without leaving Explorer.
  • The new Zip and E-Mail Plus context menu entry extends the Zip and E-Mail feature by allowing you to change the name of the attachment and to use password protection.
