YemuZip

Very nice, simple and clean. Thanks.

Release Notes for version 2.5 (which was actually released January 12, 2016): "Updated to use new APIs." -> Note that this YemuZip is free to use. Paying for it supports the developer and removes ads.

All I need is the ability to ZIP without the hidden .DS_store and __MACOSX showing up for the Windows users. This app is small, simple, and does exactly that.

I tried a couple other apps that have this feature, but they're either expensive, bloated, or don't do the job correctly. This one does.

This is a very easy to use program.

This is an awesome piece of useful software. I love it. It works, it doesn't demand a lot of attention. I am rating it as a way of thanking the developer. I think I bought it (because I don't see ads) , but if I can't ascertain if I did previously, I'll pay the very low fee, even if it's a 2nd time.

Super

Very useful for staying PC-Compatible without bewildering Windows users with resource files and such. Fast too and I hardly saw the ad that felt relevant too and I hate ads. I might upgrade to the Pay app as it's so nice.

It works, it's stable, it's inexpensive, it's supported, it's easily attainable and it's mine.........if you need more....buy it yourself and write your own review....it's worth it!

i've used Yemu for a few years now: it's still fabulous, reliable, and i've not had any trouble whatsoever in using Yemu. YellowMug provides regular updates and has quite an array of user friendly products. There's currently a special for Yemu on their site, and gosh, it's worth it. The customer support is so refreshing and prompt! Thanks for the well-earned glowing comments for YellowMug! (And i'd suggest going for the token $4.99, but i'd bought the bundle and have actually used each one ~ and never have they required a fee for updates). Give 'em a try - i hope you enjoy their shareware and freeware! Finally - a company that truly supports the MAC platform! Thanks ~ i learned about them from MacUpdate, and fine forum pals like each of you.

I have been using this for a long time and finally purchased it at the App Store. With this latest version, it appends the file extension twice (….zip.zip). Odd.

This is not free. And I recommend Keka instead.
