Changelog:
  • Archiving:
    • Added support for UDF, XAR, and DMG/HFS file types, improved support for OpenOffice file types - total 79 file extensions supported

  • Usage:

    • "Extract to new folder" flag is no longer limited to current session
    • Open executables/files/folders (in Windows) are now lauched in a separate processes rather than through shellexecute method (unless necessary) in order to increase parallelism and avoid possible stalls while waiting slow resources
    • Fixed configuration/bookmarks/rnd issues related to lack of write access for unprivileged users (Windows and Linux installable packages)
    • Improved file/archive browser's keyboard shorcuts:
      • Backspace mapped to browse previous path

  • System integration:
    • New "Extract..." system's menu entry to allow specify path, extraction in new folder, password and other options
    • On Extract here (and list/test functions) from system's menus, now PeaZip test if password is needed and if archive is not corrupted (for performance reasons only for archives smaller than 100MB)

    • Czech, German, Portuguese, Russian
    • Toolbar buttons' width extended to 110px to better fit text
