How do you use the compare feature. I am looking for free simple unzip program. I created a list and then added them but I couldn't figure how do do the compare.

Thank you for your help.

That's already built in Windows XP (and Vista and 7). It's called 'compressed folders' although 7 uses the word 'zip' again.

As a bonus, it's not only unzip. These OS'es have built-in support for zipping also!

No need for a separate program unless you want to rar or unrar also.
