    Can you include .3MF to the list of re-compressible formats?
    A

    Can you include .3MF to the list of re-compressible formats? Its structure is similar to MS Office 2007 documents and Open Document Format. It is a ZIP Deflate archive with XML data and some JPG, and/or PNG pictures inside. Otherwise, if I try to compress .3MF it bearly makes it smaller unless I recompress .3MF to the Store setting then it makes it a lot smaller.
    Wish they all would move to 7zip ZSTD in the first place so that the optimized file size with FileOptimizer would be 50% of the ZIP Deflate version. And there would be no extra compression needed :)

    Optimize archive on Context Menu
    W

    I noticed that the option to add the optimize archive function to the context menu is missing on Windows 10.
    Opening each archive with the interface in order to click it becomes tedious with many files.

    Same for others functions like Remove Archive Encryption

      e.g. opening the SFX File from MS Windows 2000 SP4 takes about 5 times longer than opening it WinRAR.

          Is this specific to all files or SFX cab files? You might be able to speed it up by using Config>Misc> Speed options.

          thanks,

            I hadn’t actually tried WinRAR before (I just thought PA was slow) so I downloaded WinRAR 3.4 beta to try it. I have to say I was very impressed with the speed of it. It loaded the XP SP2 SFX far quicker than PA could manage. WinRAR took approx. 3 seconds to load XP SP2, PA took 4 minutes 11 seconds. A big difference I’m sure you’ll agree.

            It looks like PA is going through the whole file instead of just reading the file structure because the Hard disk is chugging away for a long time.

            I’ve only checked ZIP archives and SFX cab files and while WinRAR is faster than PA at opening all archives, this problem is specific to SFX cab files.

            Any other optimizations that can be made to the opening of all types of archives wouldn’t hurt though. In this case, faster is always better:o)!
