Risk notice
If you use NanaZip through unofficial channels (such as unpacking the MSIX package or copying build outputs), the official project does not provide support. Additionally, the MSIX installer may need an internet connection on first launch to obtain a license when offline; having Windows Firewall disabled may cause installation to fail; and it cannot be used in Windows Safe Mode. Please ensure you obtain it from official channels.
Who it's for
- Users on Windows 10 2004 or later, or Windows Server 2022
- Users accustomed to 7-Zip who want a more modern interface and system integration
- Users who need support for multiple hash algorithms and compression formats
- Users who prefer deployment via Microsoft Store or MSIX
- Users who care about software security and want an archiver with stricter protection measures
Who it's not for
- Users on Windows 10 versions older than 2004, or on non-Windows platforms
- Users who need complete portable version functionality (such as context menu and file associations) — NanaZip Classic is not yet complete
- Users who need to use an archiver in Windows Safe Mode
- Users relying on non-official Windows-compatible systems such as ReactOS
Install guide
Download Files
For most users, download the main installer NanaZip_6.5.1767.0.msixbundle. If you plan to perform a provisioned installation via the command line, also download the NanaZip_6.5.1767.0.xml license file. Users who need a portable version may download NanaZip_6.5.1767.0_Binaries.zip (note: the portable version is for debugging and special environments only).
Installation Steps
Method 1: App Installer (GUI)
Make sure the "App Installer" component from Microsoft Store is installed on your system. Double-click NanaZip_6.5.1767.0.msixbundle, then click "Install" in the pop-up window.
Method 2: Command Line (Current User)
Open PowerShell as administrator and run:
Add-AppxPackage -DeferRegistrationWhenPackagesAreInUse -ForceUpdateFromAnyVersion -Path "NanaZip_6.5.1767.0.msixbundle"Method 3: Command Line (Provisioned Install, All Users)
To install for all users, prepare the XML license file as well, and run the following in an elevated PowerShell:
Add-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online -PackagePath "NanaZip_6.5.1767.0.msixbundle" -LicensePath "NanaZip_6.5.1767.0.xml"Or use DISM:
DISM.exe /Online /Add-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackagePath:"NanaZip_6.5.1767.0.msixbundle" /LicensePath:"NanaZip_6.5.1767.0.xml"Portable Version Notes
Extract NanaZip_6.5.1767.0_Binaries.zip to a local directory and run the executable inside. However, note that the portable version does not include File Explorer context menu or file association features; it is officially recommended only for debugging or environments such as Windows PE/RE.
Common Installation Issues
- If NanaZip does not appear in the right-click menu after installation, restart "Windows Explorer" via Task Manager.
- If you installed the MSIX package and the computer is offline, connect to the internet before the first launch so Windows can obtain the license; otherwise, it may not run properly.
- If the downloaded archive or program is blocked by the system, right-click the file, select "Properties", and on the "General" tab check the "Unblock" box and apply.
FAQ
Is NanaZip free software?
NanaZip is an open-source project, and the core features are completely free. The project offers an optional Sponsor Edition, but purchasing it does not affect usage for regular users.
What systems and platforms does NanaZip support?
Officially supported are Windows 10 version 2004 (Build 19041) or later, Windows Server 2022 or later, and 64-bit x86 (x64) and 64-bit ARM platforms.
How do I update NanaZip?
If installed via Microsoft Store, you can update it directly from the Store. For manual installations, go to the GitHub Releases page, download the latest MSIX package, and install it over the existing version. You can also install/update it using Windows Package Manager (winget).
What is the difference between the portable version and the MSIX installer?
The portable version (Binaries.zip) runs without installation, but it does not support File Explorer context menu or file associations, and lacks some features. It is mainly intended for debugging or Windows PE/RE scenarios. For daily use, the MSIX version is recommended.
What should I do if the package is reported as untrusted or the publisher cannot be verified during installation?
Confirm that the download source is official GitHub Releases or Microsoft Store, and check the file integrity. When manually installing the MSIX, if the App Installer is not installed or the certificate is incomplete, verification may also fail. It is recommended to install via Microsoft Store.
