Managing digital files has become an everyday challenge for professionals, students, and businesses alike. Projects often involve multiple file types—PDFs, Word documents, spreadsheets, images, design files, and more—that need to be organized and shared in a structured way.
Traditionally, grouping files and compressing them into ZIP folders is a manual, time-consuming process. Users have to search for files with the same name, create a ZIP archive, and then repeat the process over and over again.
ZipGen, developed by Freelancer Wahid, is a powerful yet simple desktop application designed to automate this entire process. The software intelligently detects files with the same base name and compresses them into neatly organized ZIP files—saving you time, reducing clutter, and making file sharing seamless.
Key Features
🔎 Automatic File Grouping
- ZipGen scans your input folder and identifies files that share the same base name.
- For example:
project1.docx,project1.pdf,project1.jpg→ compressed intoproject1.zip.invoice2025.xlsx,invoice2025.pdf→ compressed intoinvoice2025.zip.
- This eliminates the need to manually search and match files.
📦 Bulk Compression
- Whether you have 10 files or 10,000 files, ZipGen can process them in a single run.
- Instead of spending hours creating ZIP archives one by one, you can now finish the task in minutes.
- Bulk zipping is particularly useful for businesses, schools, and designers who handle large file collections daily.
📊 Real-Time Progress Tracking
- The software includes a dynamic progress bar that updates continuously while processing files.
- A percentage indicator shows exactly how much of the task has been completed.
- Users can see two stages:
- File collection progress (0–40%).
- Zipping progress (40–100%).
- This transparency ensures users always know the current status.
📝 Detailed Activity Log
- Every action performed by the software is logged in a scrollable log box.
- Example logs include:
- “Collecting files…”
- “✅ Collected 50 unique file groups.”
- “✅ Zipped: invoice2025.zip”
- “🎉 Process Completed. Total ZIP created: 25.”
- If an error occurs, it is displayed clearly in the log, so users understand what went wrong.
⚡ Non-Freezing Interface (Multi-Threading)
- Many software tools freeze when handling large operations. ZipGen solves this using multi-threading.
- The file zipping process runs in a separate thread, meaning:
- The user interface stays responsive.
- You can still interact with the window.
- No “Not Responding” messages, even for big file sets.
🎨 Clean & User-Friendly Interface
- The software is designed with simplicity and clarity in mind.
- Key UI elements include:
- Input Folder Selection – Choose the folder containing your files.
- Output Folder Selection – Select where the ZIP files will be saved.
- Start Button (🚀) – Begin the process with a single click.
- Progress Bar & Status Label – Visual progress indicators.
- Log Section – Detailed activity updates.
- Hover effects and professional styling make it both functional and visually appealing.
🛡️ Robust Error Handling
- If the user forgets to select input or output folders, a warning message is displayed.
- If an unexpected error occurs (e.g., file access denied), the software:
- Stops the process safely.
- Displays the error message in both the log and status area.
- This ensures no silent failures—users are always informed.
🌍 Professional Branding
- ZipGen includes a custom icon for professional identity.
- Footer includes:
- Copyright © Current Year
- Developer credit: Freelancer Wahid (with clickable link to profile).
- This gives the software a polished and trustworthy appearance.
