    Optimize archive on Context Menu
    W

    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

    Support for Zstandard .zst/.zstd archives

    It would be nice to be able to at least extract Zstandard archives.

    Highlighting files and folders in Add modes
    PA_FanP

    I prefer to use light themes, and when, for example, I have set up my main archive screen to be Classic Toolbar with Blizzard Blue, files in the archive are highlighted (no checkboxes, full row select) with white text on grey background. They are easy to see .

    However, in the Add screens, the files and folders are black type upon a pale blue background, which is not so readily visible, especially when highlighting separate files in lists with Ctrl/Click for addition. It would be ideal if the backgrounds to files in these screens could be set to mimic the highlighting of those in the main archive window.

    I have tried experimenting with different themes and settings for skins, toolbars and so forth, but, unless I’ve missed something, none seem to give me the effect I want.

    .BH in Windows 11 Context Menu

    Re: Windows 11 Context menu support

    It would really make me happy if you put .BH in the Windows 11 context menu. I know it’s in the “More Options” section, but this would make it more convenient. Don’t know why the option to add it to the menu isn’t there in the first place. P-L-E-A-S-E ??? :) Thanks You!

      Hi, today I was modifying some nVidia driver files, but they seem to have SZDD compression. PowerArchiver is not able to open this files or even extract them.
      I have no further information about this compression mechanism, however I do know I can extract those archives using Microsofts Expand tool.

      I would like support for this compressiontype. Also other driver packages have sometimes SZDD compression.

      Here some History

      CAB History
      In 1977, Abraham Lempel and Jacob Ziv devised and published a paper on their new compression method, LZ77. In 1982, James Storer and Thomas Szymarski released their LZSS variant. In the early 1980s, Microsoft required some form of data compression for their installation media to cut down on the number of disks needed to install MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows, so they took Haruhiko Okumura’s implementation of LZSS. Their compressed files had a SZDD signature.
