Enhanced Zip Files Action Options Tab

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

This tab of the Enhanced Zip Files action specifies additional options.

 

Delete existing output file before starting: If checked and the output file exists, it is deleted before the compression operation starts.

 

Skip locked files: If checked, causes the action to exclude any files that are currently locked or in exclusive use by another process.

 

Continue on warnings: If checked, the ZIP operation continues processing on all warning conditions.

 

UTF-8 encoding of filenames: If checked, Unicode filenames are stored in UTF-8 in the traditional filename fields of the central and local header (maximizes compatibility with modern zip utilities).  If unchecked, Unicode filenames are stored in UTF-8 in extra fields and dummy ANSI values are placed in the traditional filename fields of the central and local header (maximizes compatibility with older zip utilities that may not support Unicode filenames).

 

Store security descriptors: If checked, stores NTFS file security descriptors when zipping (and restores if possible when unzipping).

 

Reset archive attribute: If checked, after adding/updating a file, the archive attribute of the source file is cleared.

 

Log files that are processed: If checked, any files added or updated to the output file are logged.

 

Log progress: If non-zero value is provided here, the file progress (if logging files) or overall progress (if not logging files) is logged every x percent.
