The JiSuZip program is aimed at Chinese users, but it may find its way to non-Chinese users thanks to its extensive network of partners. The JiSuZip program appears to be an archive manager that comes bundled with an Internet plug-in dubbed 'MaohaWiFi.' PC users that are interested in using a free archive manager may install the MaohaWifi/JiSuZip package. However, the JiSuZip program is known to support a Chinese version only and lacks an uninstaller file. The 'MaohaWiFi' module acts as a WiFi networks manager, which may attempt to substitute your default WiFi utility.

The JiSuZip program may modify the Registry and become the default app to open RAR and ZIP files on Windows. The JiSuZip makes an entry on the MSCONFIG panel and starts when you boot into Windows. The same operation is performed by MaohaWiFi, and you may be invited to connect to available WiFi networks every time you turn on your PC. The JiSuZip software does not appear to have an official site and can't open other file types except for RAR and ZIP. Many users may work with GZIP, 7ZIP, 7Z and SFX files that are not supported by JiSuZip. You may need to add another archive management tool to your system and compensate for the lack of features in JiSuZip. The JiSuZip program is free to use and does not show ads, but it is limited in functionality. The lack of an uninstaller module might make removal of the software unnecessarily hard. Respectable sites like pcmag.com, techradar.com, and makeuseof.com do not recognize JiSuZip as a reliable program, and you may want to seek alternatives. JiSuZip and MaohaWiFi are perceived as Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs) that may not satisfy the user's expectations and hinder removal. You can uninstall and clean the files related to the MaohaWiFi/JiSuZip bundle with help from a credible cyber security scanner.
