So far, that's the closest I've come to any kind of "solution". If instead in column view, you select a file (it must be a file) in the same column as the folder, and then right-click on the folder you want to compress, like in the image below, the Finder won't open a new window (it will change your current file selection to the newly created file).

The problem arises from the Finder's desire to reveal the archive it's just created. From classic compression software such as WinZip and WinRAR, to slightly less well known, but still hugely popular file compression apps such as 7-Zip and Universal Extractor, FileHippo is home to the best free data compression software. For the record, Archive Utility is located at /System/Library/CoreServices/Applications/Archive Utility.app. It may have in the past, but the Finder no longer uses Archive Utility for archive creation, only for expansion. As far as I can tell, the preferences on the lower half of the window no longer have any effect on the Finder's archive creation process. IZArc is the most complete archive utility available today. Includes the WinZip Wizard and WinZip Self-Extractor Personal Edition. Features tight integration w/the Windows shell drag and drop TO or FROM the Explorer, or ZIP and UNZIP without leaving the Explorer. If you have broken archives IZArc can help you to repair them with ease. WinZip 8.0 for Windows 95/98/NT/2000 A powerful and easy to use compression utility supports ZIP, CAB, TAR, GZIP, MIME, and more.
IZArc is integrated in Windows so you can perform all archiving operations by using right-click menus in Windows Explorer. After some experimenting, I finally found a solution of sorts.īefore I get to it, just a word on the Archive Utility preferences. IZArc supports 256-bit AES encryption to secure your data.
