If you are the type of people who enjoy trying new programs, downloading plugins and files from the Internet of all kinds, you will find yourself in the download folder full of .rar, .zip files and other types of archives.
An archive is a compressed file container, so as to take up less space, the files inside of which must first be extracted for use.
These archives contain the installation files for programs, games or a set of photos or videos and must be extracted manually with Windows 7 or with a program such as Winzip, WinRar or, best of all, 7Zip to open RAR and ZIP.
After some time, most likely, you will end up with a download folder full of zip and rar archives and as many extracted folders .
A program that automatically manages the extraction of compressed archives by deleting the archive file and leaving only the extracted folder on the computer could therefore be very useful.
There are at least two free programs that can be configured in a personalized way to open all the compressed archives on the PC and the files that will be downloaded in the future extract them and move or delete the compressed files so as not to unnecessarily occupy too much space and make order.

1) AutoWinRarZip is a very simple program that scans your computer for zip, rar, tar, gzip and others archives, extracts the files and then moves them to a selected folder or deletes them .
The difference between AutoWinrarZip and programs like 7Zip is that the operation is automatic therefore, after the initial configuration, it is already known that a downloaded zip file will be extracted immediately making the files usable.
On the first start AutoWinRarZip requires you to add at least one folder to monitor for searching archives. Each folder you add is checked when the program is running in the background. You can then specify a folder where to move the archives after automatic extraction or you can select the option to permanently delete them. AutoWinRarZip is compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit editions of Windows 10 and Windows 7.
2) Extract Now is a software to extract files from multiple archives simultaneously, even automatically. Just choose a destination folder and then, all the archives dragged in the interface are extracted and saved in that folder.
3) UnPack Monitor instead is a Windows program similar to AutoWinrarZip that can monitor one or more folders on the computer to extract the compressed files and moving the archives wherever you want, automatically .
In addition to rar, zip files and the most common compressed archive files, Unpack Monitor also supports additional formats such as 7z and ISO . In the options you can customize the behavior of this decompressor and decide the scan interval and where the archive files should be moved after extraction. The program also supports the use of a password list useful for self-extracting password-protected archives. Another useful feature is the ability to stop extracting multiple files if the hard disk space is under 1 GB. Unpack Monitor also works in the background and remains active on Windows.
4) To manage downloads of Zip and Rar archives also password protected, it is advisable to use a program such as JDownloader, the best program for simultaneous downloads from the Internet, which can also be configured to self-extract compressed files when they are downloaded from the Internet.
