Create archive file

This functions is made for long-time archiving of games. It allows to pack a complete profile with all its files in a single archive file. The archive file will contain:

• The prof-file for reimporting the profile to DFendX (or any other frontend that can read prof-files).
• The conf-file for direct use with DOSBox or for frontends that cannot read prof-files.
• All game program files (most likely one or more subfolders from the VirtualHD folder).
• All additional game data files (manuals etc., most likely a subfolder of the GameData folder).
• All capured screenshots, sounds and videos (most likely a subfolder of the Capture folder).

Without any external helper program DFendX is supporting the archive file formats zip und 7z. On the page Archiving programs of the program options dialog you can set up external packing program so DFendX can read and write more archive file formats.
