Privacy, compatibility & limits
File contents and passwords are processed in a dedicated worker in your browser. They are not uploaded, logged, or saved by this app. Downloads remain available until you change the operation or close the page. Your browser manages downloaded files. The web server may log ordinary page requests; no analytics, ads, or AI scripts are enabled in this version.
Input limit: 128 MiB total and 500 files. ZIP extraction is limited to 500 entries and 256 MiB of expanded data. Operations stop after two minutes, or when you cancel. 7z and Zstandard creation have a 64 MiB input limit. Zstandard extraction is limited to 128 MiB with single frames and no external dictionaries. Very large archives, nested extraction, and split archives are outside this version’s scope. RAR is extraction-only. Modern browser support is required.
Password protection uses AES-256 via zip.js for ZIP and 7-Zip WebAssembly for 7z. ZIP filenames and file sizes are visible; 7z can encrypt its file listing too. Password-protected ZIP compatibility varies by archive app; there is no password recovery. An external security review is still needed before making stronger security assurances.
Choose up to 500 files totaling no more than 64 MiB.
Keep 7z selected and choose a compression level.
Click Create 7z, wait for processing, and save the archive.
Before you start
File processing happens on your device. File contents and passwords are not uploaded to FileLance. Your original files stay unchanged; save the results before leaving the page. Large files can use significant browser memory, especially on phones.
Should I choose ZIP or 7z?
ZIP is useful when compatibility is the priority. 7z offers another compression option for recipients with a compatible extractor. The smaller result depends on your files; compare both if size matters.
Why can 7z take longer?
Compression runs on your device and uses CPU and memory. Higher compression settings can take longer. Try Fast or fewer files if an operation reaches the two-minute limit.
Can I hide filenames with encryption?
Yes. In Protect files, select 7z and enter a password of at least 12 characters. The resulting archive encrypts both contents and the file listing.
