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
Better GUI

If your archiver have better GUI, it will be one of the greatest archivers in the world! ;) By the way, try new freeware file compressor TC version 3.1! :D

what could be improved?
can you give more specific example? -
Okay! For example, interface in WinZip and WinRAR Archivers. It have original and very convenient interface. GUI in PowerArchiver, especially in older versions, looks like a rip from WinZip… Originality is the catch! :D

… interface in … WinRAR Archivers…
Talking about GUI ? You are joking, right?
… interface in WinZip … GUI in PowerArchiver, especially in older versions, looks like a rip from WinZip…
Again, you want it like WinZip but not like WinZip :confused:
… GUI in PowerArchiver, especially in older versions … Originality is the catch! :D
Ignore older versions. Try current “Explorer” view.
Sorry, do not understand russian. But comparing compression against TAR :eek:

Take it easy man!

It’s not comparing! It’s about compressing tar files with standart test files.

Sorry, on reading my post again, it could have been worded friendlier. No offense intended. But I still don’t understand what changes you are thinking of for the PowerArchiver GUI. As klumy asked - can you give specific examples?

Ah, I see. I did say I don’t understand Russian :p
Anyway, more about that program is probably too off-topic for a PowerArchiver forum.
