### Linux systems

As of PHP 7.4.0, in order to use these functions you must compile PHP with zip support by using the `--with-zip` configure option. Previously, zip support had to be enabled by using the `--enable-zip` configure option. As of PHP 7.4.0, the bundled libzip is removed.

As of PHP 7.3.0, building against the bundled libzip is discouraged, but still possible by adding `--without-libzip` to the configuration.

A `--with-libzip=DIR` configure option has been added to use a system libzip installation. libzip version 0.11 is required, with 0.11.2 or later recommended.

### Windows

As of PHP 8.2.0, `php_zip.dll` DLL must be enabled in &php.ini;. Previously, this extension was built-in.
