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
Option to back up to USB stick
-
At present I use Syncback, Comodo, Allways, etc. to back up to one or more USB sticks. This works well. I fond that backing up to a re-writable DVD is unsatisfactory as the DVD fills up fairly quickly (even when using incremental backup). Once the DVD is full it is completely useless.

how do you mean? you can backup to usb stick right now? I am sure i am missing something….

Yes. With Syncback, for example, I have the option of backing up to a DVD or to a USB stick. Syncback in the first instance backs up the nominated files to a USB stick. later on, after you have worked on files, SyncBack synchronises the files on the USB stick with the original files. I should add that the files are not compressed.

You can backup to USB stick in PA Backup as well, up to 3 different drives (including USB sticks) at the same time, plus dvd and plus ftp. Just select drive that USB stick is and it will back it up there.
