ZIP to RAR Converter

ZIP is a widely-used archive file format that supports lossless data compression. It can contain one or multiple files and folders, reducing their total size for easier storage or sharing. ZIP files are supported natively by most operating systems and can be created or extracted using numerous tools. It is commonly used for software distribution, backups, and email attachments. ZIP files help reduce transmission times and organize related files into a single package.

RAR is a proprietary archive file format developed by WinRAR. It provides strong compression, error recovery, and support for splitting archives into parts. RAR files are commonly used to package software, compress large files, or split data for easier transfer. Unlike ZIP, opening RAR files typically requires specific software such as WinRAR or other compatible tools. It is widely used for secure and efficient file storage, especially when handling large or numerous files.
