File size after conversion depends on the content complexity and your quality settings. 7-Zip Archive preserves all data losslessly, so output size depends on the content's inherent compressibility.

Re-packaging files from Extended ZIP Archive to 7-Zip Archive archive format changes the compression algorithm and container structure while preserving all archived contents. File permissions, directory structures, and timestamps are maintained when supported by both formats. This conversion is useful when a recipient's system requires a specific archive format.
Important: Converting from lossy ZIPX to lossless 7Z does not restore previously discarded data. The output perfectly preserves your current file quality without adding further degradation, but quality lost during the original ZIPX encoding cannot be recovered.
