Re: Who even uses Windows ZIP handling?

To be fair, it does depend on what I'm doing, but I sometimes use inbuilt windows zip. Why? Because I can double click into the file from within windows explorer, if all I am after is viewing a log file within a zip quickly, then it makes more sense to reach that in a couple of clicks rather than bothering to unzip with a different product.

Other than that though, I'll freely admit that built in functionality for handling zip archives sucks balls.
