Zip Manager is a powerful and easy-to-use file

compression program for the Nokia 9300i. Zip Manager

allows you to handle zip files in a convenient way. It offers

a graphical interface to add, extract, and open files, as

well as to perform other commands. If you are new to zip

files, the wizards will guide you.

Zip Manager supports the following zip file formats:

WinZip up to version 8.1, InfoZip up to version 2.2, and

PkZip up to version 6.0.

Zip archives are files that contain other files. The files in a

zip archive are compressed to reduce their file size. Zip

archives have the file extension ZIP. Archives make it easy

to group files, which can make transferring and copying

many times faster.

In Zip Manager, add means to compress files and add them

to an archive. Extract means to decompress files in an

archive, creating separate files on a disk. Sometimes the

terms zip or pack are used instead of add, and unzip or

unpack instead of extract.

Zip archives are typically used in the following cases:

• Many files available on the Internet and with electronic

services are distributed as zip archives. This way only

one file transfer operation (download) is required to

obtain all related files, and file transfer time is reduced

because the compressed files in an archive are smaller

in size.

• You may need to send a group of related files. Rather

than distributing individual files, it is often easier to

distribute the files as an archive to benefit from the file

grouping and compression.

• Some important files may not be used often. To save

disk space, you can compress these files into an archive

when they are not used, and decompress (extract) them

only when needed.
