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 :)
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
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.
