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
Advanced batch archive creation options

Would be nice and usefull to be able to have more options when doing “batch archive creation”, for instance:
- use wildcard (*,$,etc…) for file selection/non-selection
e.g.: select *.log
select all except *.zip - automatically delete source file after compression
- select file older/younger than x days
- select x older/newest files
- delete file older than…
- going recursively into sub-directories… or not
All this would allow to easily maintain, compress, for instance, a log directory which do not compress results.
- use wildcard (*,$,etc…) for file selection/non-selection
-
Coomand line version (PACL) can do all that (although may need DOS batch files to do the deletions).
-
Coomand line version (PACL) can do all that
My request/wish was of course a request for the GUI…:rolleyes:
BTW, unfortunately, command line suffers :( from the same big limitation than the GUI: “-r” works only if we use . as file selection. It is not possible to use wildcards (for instance “*.log”) and “-r”
I’m currently doing all this via script and command line, but aggregate all this in PA would be nice and easier.
