7-Zip is a free open source archiving program that supports many different compression and package formats. It also has customizable Windows context-menu integration. It is vastly superior to WinZip and WinRar.
Personal
7-Zip is my primary compression utility. Although PeaZip supports more formats, I do not like the bloated interface of PeaZip, so I stick with 7-Zip.
