I have the same problem - empty folders when trying to extract Zip files

7-zip offers a state of the art compression engine. It's a good application and this is why we decided to use 7-Zip as our underlying compression engine.

3. Is jZip a new compression format?

No. jZip is not a new format. jZip supports known formats such as Zip, RAR, 7z, TAR and GZip and is compatible with other compression programs like WinZip, WinRar and 7-Zip.
