Installation

LRGEX Compress installs per-user — no administrator prompt, no UAC, no registry pollution at the system level. It lives in your %LOCALAPPDATA%.


Option 1: Download the installer (recommended)

  1. Go to the Releases page.
  2. Download the latest LRGEX-Compress-setup.exe.
  3. Double-click it. That's it — no admin prompt.
  4. Right-click any file or folder → LRGEX → Compress to verify it works.

The installer:

  • Registers the right-click context menu (per-user, no admin)
  • Registers .zgx file association (double-click = extract)
  • Adds an uninstaller to your system

Option 2: Install via winget

winget install LRGEX.Compress

Uninstall

Use Add or remove programs in Windows Settings, or run the uninstaller directly from:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\LRGEX Compress\unins000.exe

Uninstalling cleanly removes:

  • The exe
  • The right-click context menu entries
  • The .zgx file association

Updates

LRGEX Compress checks for updates automatically. Every update is cryptographically signed (Ed25519) and verified before installation — a tampered or corrupted update will never install.

When an update is available, you'll be prompted to install it. One click, done.
