    Can you include .3MF to the list of re-compressible formats?
    A

    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 :)

    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

      PA 9.01 can’t compress files which are in use !!

      Try to compress a mp3 which is played by winamp.
      PA won’t do it.

      It makes this failure message

      “Warning: Skipping F:\mp.mp3”

      WinRAR can compress this file

        Hi,

        PowerArchiver is setup to skip locked files, including files that are exclusivly in use while some other utilities compress (or try to in some cases) locked files but dont compress files exclusivly in use.

        We cant currently make distinction between files that are locked and files that are exclusivly in use by some application and thus unreadable.

        thanks,

          could you try to integrate an option “try to compress files in use” like in WinRAR?
