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
Encrypted default password .exe in context menu

Hello out there
PA 2009 Pro
I would like to have following feature under my RMB:add one or more files
to an encrypted, password file with extension .exe
with a defaulted password
(password that I have configured in PA)so: select 5 files - RMB - zip to EXE - that is pw protected. only question is: what filename …
In fact, it should also be made possible to have a default name: like PA-Archive-001, 002, etc.

Should be in wishlist :D
Anyway I think there are two interesting points:- access to SFX wizard via shell menu
- for SFX defaults; maybe add an SFX profile?
However, I’m not sure about default password for encryption - doesn’t this defeat (or at least drastically reduce the security) of using encryption?
-
I have suggested support dept to have an tag/untag option to use a default password for all encrypted files.
Shd users wish to enter a password for each and every file - then PA shd offer that option (untag default pw).
I think, over time one tends to forget different passwords: imagine you have a dozen different passwords … one needs to think hard what password has been used for that 2 years old file :)

Yes, but if you can’t remember the password after long time - why use one at all on files which are for storage?
Having a default password (which is stored in PA or other utility) seems to be no more secure than no password to me and if your pc/program crashes and burns then you have the same problem anyway i.e. “what was the password I configured two years ago and haven’t entered since?”
I suppose it depends on your reason(s) for wanting to use password on an archive/backup in first place, but even if added I would expect this option to be DIS-abled in default.

That’s why I suggested to have this as an option: either use the default password for all zips or let users decide to add different pw’s for the different zipfles.
For quite some stuff I have the same password and they are basically meant to avoid stuff being read the chance the pc is left unattended (or may be under repair).
Well, anyway …
