jalaffa Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 7-Zip is an open-source file archiver, that offers the highest compression ratio, using the new 7z format, which delivers compression results that are usually 30-50% better than standard ZIP. We tested it with a server log file, which compressed with ZIP had a file size of 18 mb and using 7-Zip was reduced to 8 Mb (results may vary, depending on file type). 7Zip supports 7z, ZIP, CAB, RAR, ARJ, GZIP, BZIP2, TAR, CPIO, RPM and DEB formats, so it can be used with all popular archive files. The program offers a basic file explorer interface and also integrates into the Windows right-click menu. It can be associated with any of the supported formats and also offers command/line support.Thanks to jasonliul for the update.Download Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nastrahl Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 I switched to PeaZip at least just for the icons (I'm sick of the Windows 95 ones), while it supports 7-zip and other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nastrahl Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Well it seems really alpha… It can't work at all, saying that it doesn't have permission. I also get error when making file association, both even when I run in admin. Uninstalled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stig Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I know it is only an Alpha, but I have to close explorer.exe manually at every installation.I am sure an installer can do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fallon Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Are RAR5 archives completely supported on 7-Zip, now?No, as ZinnPL rightly said. But it will be addressed first thing after this version has gone beta, which will be soon, according to Igor on his 7-Zip forum.programmer is slow in updating 7-ZipYou sure are right about that, but as long as it's a one man show for free, nobody can complain really.
