System requirements
What EasyUnZip needs to run
EasyUnZip 0.2.0 extracts ZIP and RAR on Windows. If your PC runs Windows 10 and 11 on 64-bit hardware, it runs.
EasyUnZip installs from its Microsoft Store listing; there is no separate installer file. The download page has the button and the install steps.
- Operating system
- Windows 10 and 11. Windows 10 needs version 2004 (build 19041) or later.
- Architecture
- 64-bit (x64). There is no 32-bit and no ARM build.
- Storage
- Allow space for the app and the files you extract.
- Runtime
- Microsoft Edge WebView2. Windows 11 has it already, and Windows 10 has had it through Windows Update since 2021. The Microsoft Store manages EasyUnZip installation and updates.
- Network
- Needed to install from the Store, start the trial and activate a key. Extraction itself never uses it.
- 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 10 before version 2004, Windows 8.1, 7 and earlier. The Store package requires a newer Windows build.
- 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.
EasyUnZip is not resource-hungry, but the honest answer about RAM and CPU is that we have not published measured figures, so this page does not print a number it cannot stand behind. It sits idle in the tray until you press the hotkey.
