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
Rar repair

i know you can not create rar files but it would be nice if you could repair them, as i get loads that are damaged and need reapiring and have to resort to winrar to do this even though i don’yt wnat to create them
what does everyone else think

Wouldn’t repairing RAR files be covered by the same licensing problems as creating RAR files? My understanding is that RARLabs (or whoever owns the RAR format) does not allow 3rd parties to do anything with the RAR format except extract.

you are wrong there, repairing rar files in other packages have been around a long time they just license the rar format from the makers of winrar. The other point to make is that this as you said this might infringe the license of rar format however you can not create or add files to a rar file that is repaired you can only repair it, which would get around this problem as you have to have a rar file in order to repair the file. So u can’t create a rar file , i mean convert another format into rar, so no conflict on license.
