A 7Z file is a compressed archive format developed by Igor Pavlov and primarily associated with the 7-Zip software. This format utilizes a variety of compression algorithms, with LZMA being the most common, to achieve high compression ratios. 7Z files are capable of compressing multiple files into a single archive, making it easier to store and share large amounts of data efficiently.

The 7Z format is open-source and supports advanced features such as strong AES-256 encryption, the ability to create multi-volume archives, and optional data recovery records. Its flexibility and efficiency have made it a popular choice for users seeking powerful compression and strong security.

ezyZip is a collection of online file management tools, including this free 7Z file creation utility. Unlike other online file compression tools, ezyZip runs locally in your browser, ensuring your privacy is protected. You can create 7Z archives quickly and securely without uploading your files to a server.

ezyZip processes files directly in your browser. Unlike most online tools, your files are not uploaded to our servers, which means faster processing and better privacy.
