Right click option on the Windows File Manager to Move or Add selected files into a new (named) Zip Archive.

I think this was an older Winzip feature. If I select a group of files in the windows file explorer, and right click, I had the option to move or copy those files into a new archive. When I clicked on the option, a window opened so that I could name/rename the new archive, and choose whether to add or move the files into that new archive. This was nice because I didn't have to go back and delete the original files and/or rename a default archive name. I don't see that option in version 29

    This capability still exists. I use it all the time. I select files in file explorer and right click, then because I am on Windows 11, I now have to choose winzip, quick actions, add/move to zip file... in the dialog that appears, I click the move button instead of add.
