In its most basic form, ZipMagic is a virtual device driver that is automatically loaded by the operating system when your computer boots up. The driver allows Windows to treat ZIP archives as normal directories. These virtual folders, the contents of which are the actual contents of the archive, continue to be labeled with a .zip extension and are still visible to all applications.

The only differences are that the ZIP archives now have a .zip icon associated with them and the archives can now be opened and closed just like any other Windows folder. Any file management actions performed on these folders are actually made to the archived ZIP file and the files contained within that ZIP file.
