Fast technology May 24 news, see.7z.rar. tar and other formats, I am afraid familiar with the computer friends are not unfamiliar, this is the significance of the installation of three party decompression software, after all, in addition to zip, Windows native support for compressed files is too little.

Windows chief Panos Panay confirmed,The Windodws project team has added compression algorithms (gzip/bzip2/xz/lzip, etc.) that support tar/7-zip/rar/gz and other open source compression libraries like Libarchive.
