WinZip Self-Extractor 2.2
WinZip Self-Extractor 2.2 is a utility
program that creates self-extracting
Zip files. These self-extracting Zip files are ideal for electronic
file distribution, because they allow the receiver to use a familiar
Windows interface to decompress files without a separate unzip utility.
Additionally, self-extracting Zip files can optionally run a
"setup" or "installation" program, provided by the
creator, after the files are decompressed.
WinZip Self-Extractor 2.2 is a
companion product to WinZip and is separately licensed. The current
release of WinZip contains WinZip Self-Extractor Personal Edition, a
subset of WinZip Self-Extractor 2.2. For a comparison between WinZip
Self-Extractor Personal Edition and WinZip Self-Extractor 2.2, click here.
