ZIP Comments

Introduction

You can create, edit and view comments in ZIP files using PowerArchiver. Once archive is open, to activate the Comment dialog box (ZIP archives only) you can right click on any file or folder and select “Archive Comment…” or use the “Archive Comment…”” entry in the “Actions” menu (Classic interface).

A comment is optional text that gets embedded into a ZIP archive. It can be viewed, created, edited, or cleared using the Comment dialog box. Simply type in your text, paste it from clipboard, or insert it from file.

Options

Furthermore, by checking “Dock comments when opening ZIP files” in “Options> Configuration> Miscellaneous”, comments will appear in a “docked bar” at the bottom of the PowerArchiver. This is useful when working with many ZIP files with comments.
