What is a ZIP converter?

A ZIP converter here packs files or a folder into one ZIP archive.

ZIP converter features

Pack files or a folder into one ZIP archive.

  • Files to ZIP

    Add several files and download one .zip file.

  • Folder to ZIP

    Choose a folder. The paths inside that folder stay in the archive.

  • A normal ZIP

    The download opens in the archive tool on your computer.

  • Browser-side packing

    The files stay on your device. No account is required to create a ZIP.

How to create a ZIP file

Three steps from files or a folder to a ZIP.

  1. Add files or a folder

    Drop files, choose files, or choose a folder from your device.

  2. Name the archive

    Keep the suggested name, or type another name, then click Create ZIP.

  3. Download the ZIP

    Save the .zip file and open it in a normal archive tool.

Tips for creating a ZIP

What this converter keeps from the files you add.
  • 01

    Paths stay in the archive

    A folder becomes folders inside the ZIP, not a flat list of names.

  • 02

    A RAR file is a different job

    Use the RAR to ZIP converter for an unlocked .rar archive.

  • 03

    The ZIP holds the files you add

    A PDF or an MP3 is a different conversion. This page creates the archive.

Good uses for a ZIP converter

When you want one archive from several files.

  1. Send a folder: Pack a folder into a ZIP that keeps the folder structure.

  2. Bundle a few files: Turn several files into one download.

  3. Make an archive locally: Create the ZIP in the browser without desktop software.

Why create a ZIP here

A local ZIP from files or a folder.

  • No signup

    Create a ZIP without an account.

  • Stays on your device

    Packing runs in the browser.

  • A normal ZIP

    The download is a .zip file with the paths you added.
