While 7-Zip may sound like a good name for a PC virus, it's actually a legitimate utility that compresses and decompresses files. It also comes with a built-in file manager that helps you manage those files. If you share a computer, such as for business purposes, someone else may have installed 7-Zip without telling you. An IT person may also have installed the program on your computer. While it doesn't hurt to leave the app on your computer, you can delete 7-Zip quickly if you think you don't need it.


DarkFrost: I think you dont understand my question .My question means if you have compressed 7z file (not file manager) then virus have ability to corrupt or steal your information or it remain uninfected.I know all about file manager and other things
tanishqmishra: sorry my fault
