ZippHo is incredibly easy to use! In order to open a compressed file, you simply double click (or a single click if you have Active Desktop enabled) on one of the archives listed in My Computer or Windows Explorer; or you can drag and drop the archive on the empty window of ZippHo, or still, you can use the dialogue window "Open". In the main window of ZippHo are listed file name, file size and date/time of all files included in the open archive. It is possible to sort this list for any column.

Double clicking on any file listed in the main window of ZippHo, you have the same effect that you may obtain in File Manager or Windows Explorer: the files are extracted from the archive and, if it is a executable, it will be run, otherwise it will be opened from the application associated to it (as an example, NotePad for TXT files), being based on the associations recorded in Windows. If the file is not associated to any program, you can try to see it with the integrated viewer of ZippHo.
