PeaZip 3.6.0

PeaZip is an open source file and archive manager. It's freeware and free of charge for any use.

PeaZip can extract most of archive formats both from Windows and Unix worlds, ranging from mainstream 7Z, RAR, TAR and ZIP to experimental ones like PAQ/LPAQ family, currently the most powerful compressor available.

For archive creation, PeaZip suppors a wide range of compression and encryption standard, from fastes to most powerful ones, and allows to export job definition as scripts to bridge the gap between GUI and console applications, and let the user pick the best of the two worlds.

PeaZip has secure deletion feature, can verify file checksum and hash, and supports multiple strong encryption standards, optionally using two factor authentication (password and keyfile) for increased security:

* 7Z's AES256 encryption
* ZIP WinZip's AE encryption based on AES256 (and ZipCrypto for legacy compatibility); can decrypt PKZip's AES encryption
* FreeARC's ARC: AES256, Blowfish, Twofish256 and Serpent256 - this format is also capable to generate recovery records to protect data against corruption
* PEA: AES256 EAX authenticated encryption

Change Log:

# BACKEND
* Updated to Pea 0.34

# CODE
* Updated Wolfgang Ehrhardt's crypto lybrary with crc_hash_2010-12-19

# FILE MANAGER
* Fixed: installable version unable to update archives on Windows 64 bit
- default 7z working dir (-w parameter) changed to explicitly set to use output path
- if 7z working dir is set to temporary folder, let 7z determinate the appropriate path
- when deleting files from a file supported through 7z backend, apply 7z working dir preference
* Fixed button position and size with large fonts / high dpi
- StringGrid's rows are now auto sized Modal buttons text is now translated
* Open output path moved from Options to Add and Extract interfaces for better visibility
* On archive creation, if password is set and the format supports encryption, the encryption label is evidenced in green for better visibility
* New option for ignoring paths for drag and drop extraction (default on)
- with ignore path directive applied, extraction through 7z and freearc backends will be performed using e (extract without paths) instead of x (extract with paths), in order to extract files from the archive without recreating the parent path's directory tree on the extraction destination
- with this new directive applied by default, all partial extraction operations starting from the file/archive browser (extract and open, and extraction by drag and drop), behaves uniformly trying to extract selected file(s) without recreating parent path tree
- the directive is overridden if a directory is selected, as extraction without paths will lose information about directory tree below that directory
- see Options > Settings, Open archive tab for fine tuning "ignore paths" directives

# 129 file extensions supported
* Added support for .APK (Android package) and .SAR, and .IMF (IncrediMail)
