I'm looking for a zip compression program with the possibility to set a
date/time filter for the files to be compressed.
Any suggestion?
Thanks.
 
If you only need to compress files made/modified AFTER a certain date,
you can try SyncBack:

http://www.2brightsparks.com/syncback/

1. Make a profile with the source and destination directories.

2. In Expert mode | Compare Options, set a number in "Ignore files that
have not been modified/created within the last x days".

3. Then, in Compression, select "Compress the files in the destination
into Zip files".

Before proceeding, you can run a simulation of the Profile, and sort by
date the files to be zipped, to see if you calculated the number of days
correctly.

Thank you, it runs very well. But I'm surprised that there are no programs
to do it with the exception of SyncBack.
