Free file compression tool for personal computers

KGB Archiver is a software package that will allow users to compress files into more manageable formats. This can help to free up additional memory space and to remove clutter from a desktop. Functioning much in the same way as WinZip, this bundle tends to offer more lightweight benefits and it is absolutely free to download.

Main Features and Accessories

KGB Archiver is able to successfully compress the majority of file types that are in existence. These will then be sent and stored into a desired folder. The files can thereafter be opened with this utility or other standard decompression tools such as WinZip. There are a number of different compression settings and these are intended to shrink the file size down to a desired level. It is very easy to work with and a user-friendly interface will not generally require much previous experience with using this type of package.

Additional Features

There may be times when a file needs to be encrypted as well as compressed. KGB Archiver provides this capability. It employs AES-256 encryption; one of the most secure methods on the market. This will help to keep personal information safe from prying eyes. High rates of compression ensure that the majority of files can be dealt with in a short period of time.

    • There are a number of different compression options available.
  • Cons

    • The last update occurred as far back as 2009.
    • This system will require a substantial amount of RAM space.

This is such an underrated decompression tool! For me, KGB Archiver is the best decompression tool that ever existed in this world! It has the capability to provide you a quick but high-quality compression rate that also ensures the best security and protection that any other decompression tool can't provide.

by Ethan James Cooper

I really love KGB Archiver even better than WinZip because KGB Archiver offers a higher and faster rate compression than WinZip. The compression of large amount of files will only take a short peried of time for KGB Archiver while WinZip requires a quite longer amount of time. This is just incredible!

kgb archiver zip as well as .kgb option.. slow to start. but has two options. files can be compressed as .zip or as .kgb zip file size is same as with alzip. The kgb file is compressed to 60% of original, which is really something. but the speed is very very slow and not practical.A 44 mb file can be compressed to 25 mb in about 24 hours on a P4memory reqd for zip file is 17 MB but for .Kgb file is 950 MB
