System requirements

What it needs to run

EasyUnZip 0.1.1 is a small Windows desktop program. If your PC runs Windows 10 and 11 on 64-bit hardware, it runs.

Operating system

Windows 10 and 11. Windows 10 needs build 1809 or later.

Architecture

64-bit (x64). There is no 32-bit and no ARM build.

Disk

About 16 MB installed, including the bundled 7-Zip engine.

Installer

4.1 MB

Runtime

Microsoft Edge WebView2. Windows 11 has it already, and Windows 10 has had it through Windows Update since 2021. If it is missing, the installer fetches it - which needs a connection during install, once.

Network

Needed to start the trial and to activate a key. Extraction itself never uses it.

Admin rights

Installing asks for them, like any program that writes to Program Files. Running it afterwards does not.

Other software

None. No .NET, no Java, no separate 7-Zip or WinRAR install - the engine ships inside.

What it will not run on

• macOS or Linux. There is no build and none is planned. EasyUnZip is built around Windows behaviour that has no equivalent elsewhere: the File Explorer selection, the extended path form, and the Windows filename rules it repairs around.
• 32-bit Windows, and Windows on ARM - no native build is published for either.
• Windows 8.1, 7 and earlier. WebView2 is not supported there, and the installer refuses rather than half-working.
• Windows Server. Not tested and not claimed.

Checking what you have

Press WinPause, or open Settings → System → About. "System type" says whether you are on a 64-bit processor, and the Windows specifications block gives your edition and build number.
