Archive Files into a ZIP

The Archive button creates a compressed ZIP file containing all the files you have marked in the File Search result grid. This is a quick way to package files for backup or transfer directly from your search results — without needing to open a separate archiving tool.

How to Create a ZIP Archive

1. Run a File Search to locate the files you want to archive.
2. Place a checkmark in front of each file you want to include. Use the Mark All toolbar button to check all files at once.
3. Press the Archive button in the action panel.
4. A save dialog opens. Choose a destination folder and enter a filename for the ZIP (e.g. backup_2026.zip).
5. Disk Recon compresses the marked files and shows a status message when the archive is complete.

What Gets Archived

• Files are stored in ZIP format, which is compatible with Windows Explorer and all major archive tools.
• The original files are not deleted — archiving is a copy operation. To remove originals after archiving, delete them manually or use Move Files first.
• Files from different source folders are all placed at the root level of the ZIP (folder structure is not preserved).
