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
Test PAE

About a year ago, I decided, partly based on your recommendation, to use PAE for all my important encrypted files.
From the beginning, though, there was one thing about that choice that made me uneasy: the inability to test them to make sure the archive is OK.
You CAN test ZIPX and 7ZIP encrypted files (after entering the password), but not PAE.
If that feature is forthcoming, I can stick with PAE encryption; if not, I may have to start converting all files to zipx or 7zip or RAR with their internal encryption. These are critical files, and I want to make sure there are all right before deleting the originals.

Socrates, that’s a good suggestion although during the encryption process it might already test the structure before finalizing. However, the option to test would be a nice option.
