FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is the ZIP Password Protector free to use?
Yes — completely free with no file-size limits, no daily usage caps and no premium tier. All 247 tools on BunchTool are free forever, with no upsells or paywalls.
Is my data safe and private?
Absolutely. Your data is processed entirely inside your browser using client-side JavaScript. Nothing ever leaves your device or is uploaded to any server.
Does the ZIP Password Protector work offline?
Yes. Once this page has loaded in your browser, the tool continues to work without an internet connection. Your browser handles all the processing locally on your device.
What's the difference between ZipCrypto and AES-256?
ZipCrypto is the traditional encryption format supported natively by older Windows zip utilities, but is cryptographically weaker. AES-256 is the modern military-grade encryption standard which is highly secure, but may require WinZip or 7-Zip to extract on older systems.
Does my password get sent to a server?
Absolutely not. All crypto functions run locally inside your browser sandbox using zip.js. Nothing is ever sent to any server.
