This depends on the extensions that are used. For example, ZIP file can use a LZMA compression, and not all decompressors can handle it.
- mjevans 3y agoIf LZMA is your intended target, I more strongly suggest selecting a more modern container such as the 7z archive format. Someone selects a zip file not for it's compression, but for how widely accessible it is. Most likely this involves basic compression on text files, error detection checksums, and storage (no compression) of already well compressed images and possibly videos.
