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
It would be nice to be able to at least extract Zstandard archives.
I prefer to use light themes, and when, for example, I have set up my main archive screen to be Classic Toolbar with Blizzard Blue, files in the archive are highlighted (no checkboxes, full row select) with white text on grey background. They are easy to see .
However, in the Add screens, the files and folders are black type upon a pale blue background, which is not so readily visible, especially when highlighting separate files in lists with Ctrl/Click for addition. It would be ideal if the backgrounds to files in these screens could be set to mimic the highlighting of those in the main archive window.
I have tried experimenting with different themes and settings for skins, toolbars and so forth, but, unless I’ve missed something, none seem to give me the effect I want.
Re: Windows 11 Context menu support
It would really make me happy if you put .BH in the Windows 11 context menu. I know it’s in the “More Options” section, but this would make it more convenient. Don’t know why the option to add it to the menu isn’t there in the first place. P-L-E-A-S-E ??? :) Thanks You!
Any chance of including this format in a future release?

Exceptional compression levels.
Thanks.
Context menu only for selected file formats
-
It would be nice if the context menu was only shown against file formats ticked in the file formats configuration screen.

Not sure I understand what you mean…
If the menu does not appear then how do we compress files?
Also, how to do archive conversion?
How to use PA to extract from archives which are not associated with PA?If you simply want to reduce the menu size, then you do know about the “Display non-cascaded context menu” flag - just DISable this :D

The key was that I only have “extract” options ticked in the context menu config, so uncompressing is not relevant. Therefore I hoped the PA context menu would only appear when I right-clicked on certain (ie. my selected) file formats - i.e. there was a bit of intelligence about whether a context menu was displayed (as there is with what entries are displayed). Thinking again, after reading your response and the points you raise, my requirement is not really valid. Thanks for your time.
