PeaZip 9.2.0 improves the GUI with more customization options for
address bar and tab bar, and re-organized support section, with easier
access to online resources, documentation, issue tracker, and to
settings relevant to privacy and security.
Under the hood the support for editing non-canonical archive types was
improved, and it is now possible to try different methods to manage
unsupported file types.
On Windows, McMilk codecs and sfx modules were updated, to support
extra compression methods for .7z format (Brotli, FLZMA2, Lizard,
Zstandard...), and on all platforms it is now possible to set an alias
for 7z / p7zip backend to easily switch between alternative binaries.
A total of 230 file extensions can now be opened as archives by PeaZip.
Translations are
available in over than 30 languages, any help is welcome to translate
PeaZip
to new languages and to maintain current localizations up to date, so
please consider taking the time to give a look to translations
repository
for newer language files and for any resource useful for translators.

alternative backend for .zpaq format
To use an alternative zpaq
fork rename the binary as zpaq and replace the zpaq binary in
(peazip)/res/bin/zpaq/ directory
CODE
(macOS) Fixed open custom
applications
Fixed compression method is now saved accordingly for 7z sfx format and
7z format
Re-organized Help section with quicker access to online updates,
Plugins, Themes, and Translations
Privacy and Security section in main Settings tab, collecting all

known formats not supporting the operation
The option now allows to treat non-canonical archives as 7Z, ZIP

to adhere to an older syntax to maintain compatibility with legacy
systems
