InstallAware DiskZIP

InstallAware DiskZIP creates a disk image file which is 100% impregnable to all known malware. Locked down by the OS, it could hardly be touched by any future malware. DiskZIP frees up 5,5 GB disk space on a clean Windows 11 install, and 22 GB on Windows 11 with a full InstallAware setup. Without deleting anything from your disk. Unaffected disk write speeds.

Disk read speeds accelerated in some cases and marginally decelerated in only a few. Net-zero-sum impact on performance. DiskZIP is the natural evolution of more than two decades of data compression expertise at InstallAware, now in the service of not only software developers, but PC users everywhere!
