PeaZip 3.6

PeaZip can extract most of archive formats both from Windows and Unix worlds, ranging from mainstream 7Z, RAR, TAR and ZIP to experimental ones like PAQ/LPAQ family, currently the most powerful compressor available.

For archive creation, PeaZip supports a wide range of compression and encryption standards, from fastest to most powerful ones, and allows you to export job definition as scripts to bridge the gap between GUI and console applications, and let the user pick the best of the two worlds.

What's new:

BACKEND

  • Updated to Pea 0.34

CODE

  • Updated Wolfgang Ehrhardt's crypto lybrary with crc_hash_2010-12-19

FILE MANAGER

  • Fixed: installable version unable to update archives on Windows 64 bit
  • default 7z working dir (-w parameter) changed to explicitly set to use output path
  • if 7z working dir is set to temporary folder, let 7z determinate the appropriate path
  • when deleting files from a file supported through 7z backend, apply 7z working dir preference
  • Fixed button position and size with large fonts / high dpi
  • StringGrid's rows are now auto sized
  • Modal buttons text is now translated
  • Open output path moved from Options to Add and Extract interfaces for better visibility
  • On archive creation, if password is set and the format supports encryption, the encryption label is evidenced in green for better visibility
  • New option for ignoring paths for drag and drop extraction (default on)
  • with ignore path directive applied, extraction through 7z and freearc backends will be performed using e (extract without paths) instead of x (extract with paths), in order to extract files from the archive without recreating the parent path's directory tree on the extraction destination
  • with this new directive applied by default, all partial extraction operations starting from the file/archive browser (extract and open, and extraction by drag and drop), behaves uniformly trying to extract selected file(s) without recreating parent path tree
  • the directive is overridden if a directory is selected, as extraction without paths will lose information about directory tree below that directory
  • see Options > Settings, Open archive tab for fine tuning "ignore paths" directives

129 file extensions supported
Added support for .APK (Android package) and .SAR, and .IMF (IncrediMail)
