Yes, 7Z is a more advanced format and compresses better than ZIP. The 7Z file format uses LZMA and LZMA2 algorithms for compression, which are generally more effective than the DEFLATE algorithm used by the ZIP format.
Even though 7Z is a more advanced format, it is not supported by many systems and software, which creates some compatibility issues. On the other hand, the ZIP format has been around for longer and enjoys a much wider support and acceptance. Thus it might be necessary to convert 7Z to ZIP for many uses.
Usually, a conversion from 7Z to ZIP does not affect the original 7Z file. The compression generally works by extracting content from the 7Z file, then compressing them into the ZIP format.
No, it's not usually possible to directly convert a 7Z file to a ZIP file. Trying to do a simple renaming for the file extensions won't work either. It's generally suitable to use online tools like uFileTool for a simple and quick conversion. Locally installed apps and programs like 7-Zip software can work too. Those proficient with Windows PowerShell or Linux commands can use either to convert the files.
