@Fheyd2Black Hey Fheyd, sorry I didn't really get you. what you mean by with out creating a copy ?

[Fheyd2Black]

@computersupportonweb Hey!.. I mean when you create an archive like that , say folder A it makes a copy of folder A which is then a zip but i want convert folder A to a zip not a separate zip file. Only because im working with very large archives many of them and i dont have the space...

@Fheyd2Black Ok, I see what you mean. but I don't think you can do that with this method and I don't know any other tool providing such facility atm. I'll message you if I find one though.
