Changelog

9.1.0

BACKEND

Improved Backend binaries option group in Options > Settings, Advanced tab
Added option to adapt the syntax for a specific 7z version at runtime, syntax can now be set to 21.07 release (avoiding switches introduced later), in order to improve portability of the app to platform not having latest 7z build available, or when it is preferred to adhere to an older syntax to maintain compatibility with legacy systems
Option to use the system's version of 7z backend, rather than the one provided by PeaZip package, is now supported on all non-Windows systems; a binary or a link named 7z in system's paths is required for this feature
Pea 1.12

Whats new:>>

    PeaZip 9.2.0 improves the GUI with more customization options for address bar and tab bar, and re-organizes support section, with easier access to online resources, documentation, issue tracker, and to settings relevant to privacy and security.
    Under the hood the support for editing non-canonical archive types was improved, and it is now possible to try different methods to manage unsupported file types.
    On Windows, McMilk codecs and sfx modules were updated, to support extra compression methods for .7z format (Brotli, FLZMA2, Lizard, Zstandard...), and on all platforms it is now possible to set an alias for 7z / p7zip backend to easily switch between alternative binaries.

Changelog

9.2.0

BACKEND

(Windows) updated McMilk 7z codecs v1.5.4r4: Zstandard v1.5.4, Brotli v.1.0.9, LZ4 v1.9.4, LZ5 v1.5, Lizard v1.0, Fast LZMA2 v1.0.1
(Windows) updated 7z sfx modules using ones from McMilk's 7z fork v1.5.4r4, supporting extra compression methods
Can now use zpaqfranz https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz as alternative backend for .zpaq format
To use an alternative zpaq fork rename the binary as zpaq and replace the zpaq binary in (peazip)/res/bin/zpaq/ directory

CODE

(macOS) Fixed open custom applications
Fixed compression method is now saved accordingly for 7z sfx format and 7z format

In (peazip)/res/share/icons are now available alternative Windows icons with extensions, can be useful if file extensions are hidden on the host system
New options in Main menu, Organize
Tab bar can now be swapped with Address bar to be shown on the top (as common on Windows file managers) or on the bottom (as common on Linux and macOS file managers)
Breadcrumb bar can be shown as plain text address field, KDE/Windows file managers -like breadcrumb (default), classic Gnome Files -like, Gnome 4 -like, and macOS Finder -like.

EXTRACTION and ARCHIVING

Can now set a custom alias name for 7z / p7zip binary, to make easier to use an alternative backend, in Options > Settings, Advanced tab

Can now edit existing files in non-canonical archives
Can now keep browsing files opened as archives after edits
Fixed: adding/updating files in non-canonical archives now targets the intended subfolder inside the archives
Fixed: (Windows) non-canonical archives without extension can now be edited

7-Zip is free software with open source. The most of the code is under the GNU LGPL license. Some parts of the code are under the BSD 3-clause License. Also there is unRAR license restriction for some parts of the code.

Changelog

    7-Zip now can use new ARM64 filter for compression to 7z and xz archives. ARM64 filter can increase compression ratio for data containing executable files compiled for ARM64 (AArch64) architecture. Also 7-Zip now parses executable files (that have exe and dll filename extensions) before compressing, and it selects appropriate filter for each parsed file:

    BCJ or BCJ2 filter for x86 executable files,
    ARM64 filter for ARM64 executable files.
    Previous versions by default used x86 filter BCJ or BCJ2 for all exe/dll files.
    Default section size for BCJ2 filter was changed from 64 MiB to 240 MiB. It can increase compression ratio for executable files larger than 64 MiB.
    UDF: support was improved.
    cpio: support for hard links.
    Some changes and optimizations in WIM creation code.
    When new 7-Zip creates multivolume archive, 7-Zip keeps in open state only volumes that still can be changed. Previous versions kept all volumes in open state until the end of the archive creation.
    7-Zip for Linux and macOS now can reduce the number of simultaneously open files, when 7-Zip opens, extracts or creates multivolume archive. It allows to avoid the failures for cases with big number of volumes, bacause there is a limitation for number of open files allowed for a single program in Linux and macOS.

    There are optimizations in code for 7-Zip's context menu in Explorer:

    the speed of preparing of the menu showing was improved for cases when big number of files were selected by external program for context menu that contains 7-Zip menu commands.
    There are changes in code for the drag-and-drop operations to and from 7-Zip File Manager. And the drag-and-drop operation with right button of mouse now is supported for some cases.

    The bugs were fixed:

    ZIP archives: if multithreaded zip compression was performed with more than one file to stdout stream (-so switch), 7-zip didn't write "data descriptor" for some files.
    ext4 archives: 7-Zip couldn't correctly extract symbolic link to directory from ext4 archives.
    HFS and APFS archives: 7-Zip incorrectly decoded uncompressed blocks (64 KiB) in compressed forks.
    Some another bugs were fixed.

Bandizip is an archive tool that supports a customizable interface, the searching of archives by file name, file splitting, password protection, self-extracting archives, and varying levels of compression. It supports the creation and extraction of most common compression formats, as well as modern formats ZIPX and 7Z.

The program's "High Speed Archiving" function will allow you to compress or bypass the files its own algorithm on multimedia files (AVI, WMV, MP3...) or archive files (ZIP, RAR, 7Z...) that won't benefit from additional compression. This can increase archiving speed dramatically. Extract formats supported include 7Z, ZIPX, RAR, ALZ, EGG, TAR, BH, LZH, BZ2, ISO, CAB, WIM, XZ, ARJ, ZIP, Z and more.
