Akhir Split Zip

Most files you download from the Internet come archived so that they are kept safe from malicious apps. Compression tools are commonly used nowadays as a security measure, store multiple files into a single one, to reduce overall size or split into multiple volumes. In this regard, Akhir Split Zip aims to be yet another quick and efficient compression tool.

Portable, with low requirements

Probably the only advantage of the application is that you don't need to install it on your system, thus keeping your registries intact and can be used on the go. What's more, it takes up little space and resources so it is compatible with a wide array of configurations.

Time-consuming overall process

Features are kept in a pretty compact window which you constantly need to keep around. This is because there is no possibility to add features to the Windows context menu for faster processing.
Practicality is further reduced because you cannot simply drag items over the main window so you must use the integrated file explorer to pick either an entire folder or individual files.
On the other hand, you can add as many files and folders you like, but this only slows down the overall process. When analyzing content of a directory it can become time-consuming, unlike other applications of its kind.

Confusing size limitation options

Moreover, a field lets you specify the maximum size of files that can be added, either in MB or KB, rather than the size of volumes to create. When analysis detects a file larger than the specified size the process is halted and you need to either remove or resize the specific file.

A few last words

On an ending note, the purpose of Akhir Split Zip is rather unclear, since the process itself is difficult to put in motion and there is no function to extract compressed files. Although lightweight and equipped with an interface that seems to make sense, a few ambiguous fields create more confusion and have you stick to compression tools you're already using.
