Die meisten von uns werden wohl als Packprogramm das beliebte und kostenlose 7-Zip einsetzen. Trotzdem an dieser Stelle einmal darüber informiert, dass heute Version 20 vom Urgestein WinZip erschienen ist. Die neue Version bringt wieder einige Neuerungen und Verbesserungen mit.
Aktuell ist WinZip 20 nur in der englischen Version verfügbar. Hier einmal die Neuerungen laut Homepage:
"More sharing options
WinZip 20 expands its sharing options, so you can share directly to YouTube, along with Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. Expanded instant message support means you can share via Twitter IM, and Office 365 groups, in addition to Google Talk/Google+ Hangouts, Yahoo! Messenger and Jabber. Combining WinZip’s legendary compression and encryption with the ease of instant messaging gives you high-speed sharing without compromising security.Scan and Share
Quickly turn a photo or document into a share-ready image or PDF with the new WinZip Scan and Share feature. Start your scan right from WinZip. Then WinZip can zip it and save it locally, on the network or on a cloud service. Or share it by email, social media or instant message—encrypt if you wish to protect your scanned information when sharing. Easily share photos, documents, receipts and more.
