| Explzh 9.80 Jul 10, 2025 |
The settings for Windows 11 shell extensions can now be changed from [Menu]-[Options]-[Shell Extensions]-[Context Menu]. (The icons in the context menu can also be changed from here.) Adjusted file name title text in tabs to fit within the default frame. When additionally compressing zip, 7z, or rar icons that are drop targets, the screen will now be displayed in the foreground even if you drop the file while pressing Ctrl+E. Updated to Visual Studio 2022 v.17.14.8. |
| Explzh 9.79 Jun 29, 2025 |
When the "Auto-adjust column width in list view" function is enabled, columns that do not contain relevant data will be hidden. Changed the sorting method for items that contain folder items. In the case of folders, the sorting is done by comparing the total bytes of the files under the folder. The "Default settings for tar compression" now allows you to set the compression format individually. Fixed an issue where "Export Settings" could only be saved to the default destination. Fixed an issue where some Unix-based zip formats were incorrectly identified as "unsupported formats." Updated to Visual Studio 2022 v.17.14.7. |
| Explzh 9.78 Jun 23, 2025 |
Fixed a bug where uncompressed file information was not written correctly when converting an encrypted ZIP to a normal ZIP. (It can be extracted with most decompression software, but please note that there are cases where the warning is not displayed. Arcext.dll v.4.75) The above issue can now be fixed by running the "ZIP Repair" function directly from the warning displayed in the "ZIP Strict Check". (Arcext.dll v.4.75.1) "Repair Zip Archive" now also restores symbolic links. *Symbolic link attributes found in the central header are restored to MS-DOS attributes. Added "Enable by long pressing the left mouse button" to the sub-options of "Automatic column width adjustment in report list view" in "Window" - "General Window" - "Screen Settings". * By default, "Long pressing the left mouse button (0.2 sec.)" is enabled. The above feature is now enabled by default in the list in the "Search in Archives Dialog" as well. Updated to Visual Studio 2022 v.17.14.6. |
| Explzh 9.73 May 6, 2025 |
Supports the Windows 11 shell integration extension context menu. Fixed a bug in which "Archive Validity Check" for multiple archives from the shell extension did not output all inspection results to the log if a signed zip-sfx was included. The "Archive Validity Check" for archives from the shell extension now only checks supported archive formats. |
| Explzh 9.72 Apr 30, 2025 |
The "Do not edit digitally signed archives" setting in the compression options was off by default, but has now been changed to on by default (editing is not allowed). When editing a digitally signed self-extracting archive, the digital signature of the self-extracting archive is now deleted before editing. *Reset the digital signature of the self-extracting archive before editing to avoid inconsistencies (checksum errors) in the PE header. Please re-sign the self-extracting archive yourself after editing if necessary.) The result log of the "archive inspection" for a self-extracting archive now displays the "certificate size" and "compression format" of the digital signature (if present). When extracting some zip files, if you tried to extract them using the "Extract here..." function of the shell extension, an incorrect CRC error would be displayed and the extraction would be interrupted. (This does not occur when extracting from the main screen) |

In v.9.69, we fixed the inability to create zip2.0 encryption format (legacy encryption method with descriptor). We also improved the conversion between zip64 encrypted archives and normal archives (CTRL+Z or CTRL+SHIFT+Z). Fixed a problem where some packages could not be opened in appx, msix, appxbundle, or msixbundle formats. Supports repair of appx, msix, appxbundle, and msixbundle. Automatic updates can now detect versions of Arcext.dll with decimal points. Fixed a bug that caused an archive to have a header error (but could be expanded) when compressing after creating an uncompressed zip64 in v.9.69 and earlier, and made it possible to repair the header error correctly from "Repair Archive". Fixed the progress bar in the progress dialog not moving when compressing cab files. Applied Visual Studio 2022 v.17.13.5. |
| Explzh 9.68 Mar 18, 2025 |
Fixed an issue with converting zip files larger than 4GB (zip64 with extended local headers) to encrypted zip files and decrypting them. Fixed a problem with the repair function handling zips with extended local headers (zips created by Explorer, etc.) (Explzh does not use extended local headers). Updated to Visual Studio 2022 v.17.13.3. |
| Explzh 9.65 Feb 17, 2025 |
Fixed a bug in zip64's "Repair zip archive". (We recommend checking for zip corruption using the shortcut key CTRL+I. It does not waste computing resources and time.) Fixed a bug where "Convert and save archive" to tar.zst was converted to tar.xz. "Archive validity check" for multiple zips from the shell extension now uses strict header-only checks. Fixed a bug that caused the program to crash when scrolling horizontally after displaying files that cannot be displayed in a single line in the result log (such as files with long path names). Applied Visual Studio 2022 v.17.12.5. |
| Explzh 9.64 Feb 6, 2025 |
"Repair Zip Archive" now checks the header for validity before execution (without CRC checking), and repairs zip files (including office documents) with damaged headers. (The shortcut key "CTR+I" performs a strict check of the zip header, and displays a repair confirmation dialog only for zip files that are found to be damaged. It is fast because it omits the CRC check.) Executable files that have zip in their resources are now excluded from "Repair Zip Archive". |
