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
Writing archive types in registry
-
Currently PA writes empty archive extensions not associated with PA in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. I wish that there were some way to prevent this. In other words, I wish that only those extensions specified by the user were written.
One of the reasons is that those registry cleaning programs constantly find those empty extensions.

So don’t use them or get the program to ignore them :).
I have used many over the years without any benefit whatsoever.
They invariably result in something becoming broken, and only realising it after the event.

That wouldn’t change the fact that registry entries for file types are cluttered. This is annoying when using RegEdit scrolling through r01-99 to z01-99.
I don’t play games. So what are Quake PK3 registry entries doing there? I don’t like it when programs start doing something that user doesn’t tell it to do.

we will check it out for one of the future versions.
