Download ZIP 2 Secure EXE

ZIP 2 Secure EXE is a utility program that creates self-extracting ZIP files for
Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP. Self-extracting ZIP files are executable programs (EXEs) that contain a ZIP file and the software necessary to unzip the contents. Users can unzip the contents of a self-extracting ZIP simply by running it like any other program. No other software is needed.

Unique Features
ZIP 2 Secure EXE provides features that may not be found in other self-extractors:

Up to 256-bit Strong AES Encryption. It can safely encrypt the contents of your ZIP file with 128, 192, or 256-bit AES Encryption. To unzip, a user must provide the same password that was used when creating the self-extracting EXE. AES encryption is much stronger than standard ZIP encryption, which is regarded by security experts as being unsecure.

Streaming Technology. Chilkat's streaming compression and encryption technology allows it to create an EXE from any size ZIP file. The streaming compression and decryption technology also ensures that it will be possible to unzip the archive on your end-user's computer, even if that computer has very little memory.

Progress Indicators. A progress bar is displayed during the unzip process so your end-user can decide whether there is time to get a cup of coffee while his computer is unzipping an especially large ZIP file.

Run from DOS in a Batch File. Pass the Zip filename by itself on the command line to create an EXE with no user interaction.

Unzip to a Temp Directory and Run a Setup EXE. When creating the EXE, you can choose a Setup EXE to run after unzipping. You can also have the it automatically choose a Temp directory for unzipping, without user interaction.
