How to compress 7Z format compressed files?

7-ZIP compressed file, how to compress the file into 7Z format? Want to compress files into 7Z format? 7-ZIP is a popular decompression software that can easily do this. PHP editor Xiaoxin will introduce you in detail how to use 7-ZIP to compress files into 7Z format to help you effectively save storage space and facilitate file transfer and sharing. The following content will guide you step by step through the entire compression process to easily meet your compression needs.

7-Zip is a completely free and open source decompression software. We can download it from the official website or related software stores.

Compression steps:

After downloading the software, select the files or folders that need to be compressed, then right-click the mouse and select [Add to compressed package] in the 7-Zip list to compress.

After the dialog box pops up, select the "7Z" format in the [Compression Format] column, and then click [OK] to start compression.

Of course, we can also set related options during compression as needed.

For example, set the compression volume through [Volume size, bytes] to compress the file into several 7Z volume compressed files with the same size and format to facilitate storage and transmission;

Set a password in the [Encryption] area to protect the compressed 7Z compressed files from being opened at will.

After the settings are completed, click [OK] to compress the file.

After compression, if you want to view the 7Z compressed files later, in addition to using 7-Zip software, you can also use WinRAR, QuickZip, Haozhi and other software.

As long as the relevant software is installed, you only need to double-click the 7Z compressed file to open the compressed package and see the files inside.

You can also use decompression software to decompress the compressed package into a folder and view it again. Just select the 7Z compressed package, then right-click the mouse and select "Decompression related options" in the compression software, such as "Extract files" in the 7-Zip options, or "Extract files" in the WinRAR options.

If the 7Z compressed package is password protected, whether you are directly double-clicking to view the compressed package or decompressing the compressed package, you need to enter the originally set password before further operations can be performed.

If you choose different decompression software, you still need to enter the password first. So when setting a password, remember to remember it or save it.

What should I do if I accidentally forget the password of the 7Z compressed package? Because the decompression software does not have a "forgot password" option, even the password setter cannot retrieve or cancel the password through the decompression software.

In this case, we might as well try to use the help of other tools.

For example, the Pepsi Niu ZIP Password Recovery Tool used by the editor can not only help us retrieve the password of the ZIP compressed package, but also applies to the 7Z format compressed package.

The tool provides 4 retrieval methods. You only need to import the 7Z compressed package into the tool, select the appropriate method, and then fill in the relevant information according to the prompts.

Then wait for the password to be retrieved.
