This free utility comes in an attractive and neatly designed interface with an easy and straightforward functionality. As said, it can open all the most common archives, showing you the files they contain, and allowing you to pick those you wish to extract or extracting all their content with just one click. Creating new ZIP or 7Z files is equally simple and rewarding. Just select the files you wish to compress, the output format, the compression ratio, and click on “Create”.

Protected files are important when made available to others via file sharing or social sites, which is one of the highlights of this tool. Hamster Free ZIP Archiver can upload your newly-created image files to Dropbox, Yandex.Disk, OneDrive, or Google Drive without asking you to launch a third-party tool.

As a conclusion, Hamster Free ZIP Archiver is a good alternative to commercial archival tools, especially if you are happy with the fact that ZIP and 7Z are the only output formats available. If that is not a problem for you, you can take advantage of the many other formats the program can open and extract and of the exclusive sharing features that it offers.
