It is very essential to realize the importance of data and store it in an organized manner. It helps us in managing and accessing data quickly and without any problem. Most of the data is stored in the form of files and various file formats are used to store data.
The Zip file format is one of the most popular data compression and archival format used to store data. A Zip file typically contains one or more files which have been compressed to reduce the file size or stored in their original form. It comes in various versions such as WinZip, BOM Archive Helper, Info-ZIP, WinRAR, Universal Extractor and Zip Genius.
ZIP files normally use the file extensions ".zip" or ".ZIP" and the MIME media type application/zip. There are some software which use Zip file format to compress a large number of files. The advantage of using Zip format is that it is a very simple archive format which compresses each file separately. It allows individual files to be retrieved easily without reading through other data which means that it allows better compression by using different algorithms for different files.
Even though Zip file format is very convenient and widely used format users may experience some problems when they try to access and save zip files on their computers. Some of the most commonly faced error messages are the following:
