Double buffering is used for most drawing processes, ensuring fast and flicker-free drawing. Fixed an issue where "Toggle Selection" did not work correctly when displaying tiles in list view, making it impossible to cancel the selection. When extracting ZIP files, if the Zstandard method is mixed, the progress bar would be temporarily initialized and return to the reset position. This has been fixed. View items are now sorted by size, including the total size of subfolders. *Folder items are placed at the top (ascending order) or bottom (descending order). We have reviewed the method of storing links when the "Store symbolic links" compression option is enabled, and changed the specifications so that the destination of symbolic links is stored as a relative path. As a result, the option to store links as absolute paths has been abolished. (This is to address a vulnerability issue related to symbolic links.) Visual Studio 2022 17.14.18 (October 2025) applied. |

Fixed an issue where the tree view on the left pane was turned into a garbled character when displaying full-width Japanese characters following special characters such as Unicode binding characters and zero-width spaces by owner draw. As a result, visibility including the state color has been improved. Changed to use the Dark Mode API for dynamically created progressbar drawing when dark mode setting is enabled. This is reflected by applying the recent Windows Update, and the color of the bar is displayed in white. Reduced flicker when the file name text drawing of the main body status bar is updated at high speed during dark mode. Added the "Disable incremental search function" option to [Options]-[General]-[Settings]-[Basic Behavior]. In [Options]-[Window]-[Color font style]-[Dark mode], check "Turn the color of the check box to dark mode" to display it with the check box for dark mode. He also made some other detailed corrections. |

Improved to send update notifications to the shell when making changes such as additional compression to existing zip and 7-zip files. This also updates the view of the Explorer with the file open in real time. (If the drop target function is enabled, you can easily create an encrypted ZIP by dragging and dropping onto the ZIP icon while holding down the Ctrl key.) When the zip drop target setting is enabled, the "Compressed (zipped) Folder" item will be added if it does not exist in the "New" shell context menu. Password manager bug fix. Fixed a bug that could cause a crash when loading password.dat (password data) when changing the authentication method. Visual Studio 2022 v.17.14.9 has been applied. |

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. |

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. |

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) |
