- The ARJ Compressed File Archive (.arj) is a file format used for data compression and archiving. Developed in the early 1990s by Robert Jung, ARJ stands for "Archived by Robert Jung". The format allows for efficient compression of files, supporting multi-volume archives, which means a large archive can be split into several smaller files for easier management and distribution. It also supports a high level of encryption for secure data storage.
- It is a file-based disk image format created by Microsoft for its latest Windows OS releases, Windows Server 2008 and the Windows Vista. Windows Imaging Format (wim), is used for the standard installation method of the OS.
