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
DualCore Support?
-
Will PA take advantage of the DualCore Support?
-
i think there was an thread about this - 7zip already supports it…
-
Does this mean, that PA also support this?
-
yes, 7zip format in PowerArchiver supports it…
-
what about other formats like ZIP?
-
How would you define “dual core support”? OS considers those as 2 CPUs… and most programms today use multiple threads so actually dual core or multi CPU systems are automatically supported…

indeed, what he is thinking about is actually using both cpu’s for compression of the same file.
In fact, I know I wouldnt be using it since main plus for dual core cpus for me personally is ability to do more things at once.

Well yes, that’s what I presumed, but why would one want to use both cores for a single task. Gain from that in compression algorithms requires parallel processing of several chunks which demands algorithm rewrite.
Most of the time that would be just waste of resources as one core should be available for interface thread or whatever else you do meanwhile your data compresses. -

And I am pretty sure that due to heavy memory and hard disk usage, it wouldnt trully help with 7zip - but then again, 7zip does support dual core.
