See the file README.TXT for installation instructions.

Windows 95-specific features include:

  * Extract an archive to any directory via drag and drop without
    leaving the Explorer.  Use the right mouse button to drag and
    drop a ZIP from an Explorer window to any directory, then
    choose "Extract to" from the context menu.  Remember to use
    the RIGHT mouse button while dragging.

  * Add files to an archive without leaving the Explorer.  Select
    files in the Explorer and drag and drop them on a ZIP file in
    the active Explorer window, in another Explorer window, or to
    a ZIP file on the desktop.

  * Add selected files to a ZIP directly from the Explorer with
    complete control over the options:  RIGHT-click on any file
    (or selected group of files) in the Explorer and choose "Add
    To Zip" from the context menu.  This provides a function
    similar to the Add entry in the WinZip File Manager Extension.

  * Create archives in the Explorer (or on the desktop) by
    RIGHT-clicking on the desktop and choosing "WinZip File" from
    the "New" context menu entry.  You can then add files to the
    new archive as described above.

  * Explorer-style mini-icons are displayed next to files in an
    archive to help identify the file type.

  * Explorer-style Add dialog box.

  * The Delete Archive operation moves archives to the Recyle Bin
    rather than permanently deleting the archive.

  * The Rename, Copy, and Move operations use the Windows 95
    "overwrite" user interface.

  * ZIPs opened with WinZip are properly added to the Start
    Menu->Documents menu.

  * Explorer-style New and Open dialog boxes.

  * Extract files from a ZIP in the Explorer by right-clicking on
    the ZIP and choosing "Extract To" from the context menu.

  * Uninstall WinZip using Control Panel->Add/Remove Applications.

  * WinZip uses the correct colors if you change color schemes.
    The WinZip toolbar buttons and status line colors will match
    the rest of your desktop.

  * Windows 95-style tree-view help Contents window makes it
    easier to find help topics.

  * The WinZip Options/Explorer Configuration dialog box lets you
    add WinZip to the Start menu and Desktop.

  * Long filename support and Universal Naming Convention support.

  Additional Windows 95 features are under development. Stay tuned ...

  Known problems under Windows 95:  a few people have reported
  problems running the optional external DOS programs while using
  16-bit Windows video drivers.  Also, the Windows 3.1 version of
  the Norton "FileAssist" program is incompatible with WinZip
  under Windows 95.  If you use FileAssist be sure to configure it
  not to try to change WinZip dialog boxes.

Other changes:

* The File Manager Extension is now implemented under Windows 95,
  Windows NT and Win32s.  You will have to choose File Manager
  Configuration from the Options menu and check the second button
  to activate this feature.  The File Manager Extension works the
  same as it does under Windows 3.1.

* WinZip now allows you to view multiple files in an archive
  without first closing the first file (earlier versions of WinZip
  restricted you to closing the first file before viewing the
  second file).  Under Windows 95 the system "Quick View" program
  is normally used as the "Default Association" used to view to
  files not associated with another program.  Here are some
  implementation details:  when you double click on a file in an
  archive, WinZip extracts the file to the "Temp Directory"
  specified in the Options/Directories dialog box.  WinZip then
  runs the program associated with the file so you can view the
  file.  When you later close the archive WinZip deletes the
  temporary file(s).  If the file(s) have been modified WinZip
  will give you an opportunity to update the archive with the
  modified file.  The "Always on Top" flag is temporarily turned
  off if it is on when you view a file, and is turned back on the
  next time you activate WinZip.

* The WinZip installation procedure now includes "Express Setup"
  and "Custom Setup" options.  Custom Setup results in the "old"
  WinZip 5.6 behavior.  Express Setup, the default, skips the
  Program Locations dialog box, the File Manager Configuration
  dialog box, and "Create Program Group" prompt.

* With more and more people using the Internet, virus scanning is
  more important.  As a result, WinZip's support for virus
  scanners has been improved.  The virus scanner parameters field
  now supports two new special values:  %d represents the
  directory containing the files to be scanned (without a trailing
  *.*), and %f represents a temporary "report" file.  %wscan is a
  special parameter that should be used only for McAfee's WSCAN
  2.14 and compatible scanners.  WinZip now searches for and
  supplies default parameters four additional scanners:  wscan,
  f-prot, tbscan, and wfindvir.  The "Run as Iconized DOS Session
  If Possible" checkbox has been replaced with the "Run Minimized"
  checkbox, which is now used for both DOS and Windows scanners.

* The number one new support problem in WinZip 5.6 was caused by
  the "TAR File LF to CR/LF Conversion".  This option, intended
  for text files only, caused problems for binary files.  The
  option has been replaced by the "TAR File Smart CR/LF
  Conversion" option.  When this option is in effect WinZip
  determines whether to perform CR/LF conversion for each file by
  looking at the first 80 characters in the file.  If the file is
  a text file then single LF and CR characters are converted to
  CR/LF pairs so the file can be viewed by Notepad and other
  Windows viewers.  Text files are considered files where the
  first 80 bytes contain only characters with ascii values between
  0x20 and 0x7f, carriage returns, line feeds, form feeds, tabs,
  and other alphanumeric characters (as determined by the Windows
  IsCharAlphaNumeric API).

file section titled "Version History".
