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
Archive Properties always shown as "Unknown"

It might just be me, but on the Archive Properties dialog, the following information is always “Unknown”:
Ver. to extract
Ver. made by
Host OSI have tested it with several ZIP archives which I know have been compressed using standard Zip compression (ie. not Zip64), and were created solely on Windows. Why is this information not shown ?
Can you fix this please ?!

I’ve always had this problem too.

More/Better information in the properties window is already on the Wish List.

the main problem will always be that this information can really only be created at the time of creation, so for instance sake not all archive progams do this. If and when powerarchiver does this it will be one of the first to do this. It should be made standard on all arechive programs

Yes, but when I checked the central directories of the test archives I created, every file entry had the following info:
version made by operating system (00): MS-DOS, OS/2, NT FAT
version made by zip software (20): 2.0
operat. system version needed to extract (00): MS-DOS, OS/2, NT FAT
unzip software version needed to extract (20): 2.0Therefore the information is present, but PA is not using it when displaying the Properties dialog. Why bother having these entries on the Properties dialog if they are always “Unknown”

Hi,
there is already an thread like this, which then started the wishlist thread.
Info is not always unknown, it depends on different formats. For some it showns info and for others it does not, leaving “Unknown”. In this case, certainly ZIP info is wrong due to comptability with older/other utilities - or do you think you cant extract the files in Win98 OS?As TBGBe said, wishlist is here:
http://www.powerarchiver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=170I am moving this to the wishlist and closing it. Please reffer to the above thread for more info on how new properties should look like.
thank you!
