How to Uninstall WinZip

WinZip is a popular piece of software used to create and manage compressed archives of all sorts. It is available on both macOS and Windows computers, and it is one of the most preferred 3rd-party applications when it comes to archive management. However, these operating systems have out-of-the-box support for archive management, so using WinZip or similar software might not be necessary. If you wish to uninstall WinZip because you want to switch to another archive manager, then you should do the following:

Uninstalling WinZip on Windows

Click on the Start Menu in the bottom-left corner, then find and open 'applications.' Select the 'applications and Features' tab on the left to be presented with a list of software installed on your computer. Find and select WinZip, and then click on 'Uninstall.' Follow the instructions displayed by the removal wizard.

Uninstalling WinZip on macOS

Check the Dock panel to see if WinZip is running – if it is, right-click it and select 'Quit.' Open Finder -> Applications, and then drag WinZip's icon to the Trash Bin. Empty the Trash Bin to complete the uninstallation.
