PeaZip 9.9.1 is a minor update introducing fixes and updated
translations, mainly meant to update and tidy up the GitHub repository.
PeaZip 9.9.0 completes the evolution of 9.x line and sets the starting
point for the upcoming 10.x releases.
Alongside many improvements and fixes in file manager (improved UAC
elevation, and password testing) the new release adds the ability to
drag and drop extract content from file browser to any folder in left
sidebar (containing Bookmarks, History, and filesystem treeview).
Also, a new quick extraction link is now displayed on the right of the
toolbar when an archive is being browsed, to extract all or selected
content in current path (optionally to new folder/smart new folder).
Backends are now updated to 7z 24.07, Zstd 1.5.6, and Pea 1.19, which
allows the user to specify a variable number of KDF rounds to further
increase security against password brute forcing
Sources are compiled with new Lazarus 3.4, and are still compatible
with Lazarus 2.x line.
A total of 234 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.
SHA256 hash
values of
9.9.1
packages
Hash value of each package in each release is now published in the 9.9.1
SHA256.txt
file of the release.

way of extract here submenu: bookmarks are shown first, history,
session history, and breadcrumb are shown in History submenu
Rename dialog now allows to directly switch to Move to dialog (change
file path string rather than file name string)
Updated themes
New Mac and Tux themes
Old themes and additional custom themes are still available online,
clicking "Check for Themes" button on Themes screen
(Windows 10+) The application, which by default follows system colors, can be manually forced to light or dark mode,
regardless system mode, creating an empty file named "light" or "dark"
in the same path of the executable (not integrated with themes due to
technical limitations)
EXTRACTION and ARCHIVING
Added new command line switches, which can
be used both in scripts and for system integration (context menus,
SendTo items, .desktop files, Automator scripts)
-ext2neutral directly
extracts archives in current path applying the "new folder" policy as
defined in PeaZip app (non, new folder, smart new folder, or force new
folder)
-ext2downloads, -ext2desktop, -ext2documents directly extract archives
in Downloads, Desktop, or Documents path (applying app's new folder
policy)
-ext2bookmark(1..8) extract archives in the path of the bookmarked item
number 1 to 8
Windows context menu versions of those switches begins with -ext2multi
instead of -ext2

pipe for creation and extraction of compressed TAR archives, so
no intermediate TAR file needs to be saved on disk during those
operations
This option does not apply
to the GUI app itself (which launches the operations as distinct single
processes), but only to scripts generated by the application, which can
be saved to run independently in console instances
The option applies only to formats handles through 7z / p7zip backend
For extraction operation, the option applies only a single or multiple
archives are sent to extraction scren, not while brosing a single
archive (either for partial or total extraction)

archives
Comment can be manually edited or loaded from text file (selected from
dialog or dragged on the form), and can be saved to text file for
future use
Comment con contain UTF8 characters and are limited to 64 KB for all
formats (RAR standard would allow 256KB comments but some Rar.exe
versions does not support 64K+ comments), please note some other
archive managers may not support UTF8 comments, or such large comments
RAR comments limitations
Writing comments to RAR
archive requires Rar.exe or equivalent installed on the system, reading
comments does not require Rar.exe
Cannot currently read comment from multi volume RAR archives, and from
legacy RAR4 archives (but new comment can be written)
ZIP/ZIPX comments limitations
Consistently with 7-Zip and
WinRar, comments are not supported for spanned multi-volumes ZIP/ZIPX

for that format (-add2zpaq switch sets last used *PAQ format), TAR is
automatically applied when folders and/or multiple files are sent to
formats which supports single file compression (Brotli, BZip2, Gzip,
XZ, Zstd)
Syntax: peazip (-add2brotli -add2bzip2 -add2gzip -add2tar -add2wim
-add2xz -add2zstd -add2zpaq) file1..n
If no input file or folder is provided after the switch, the archive
creation screen remains open for input
The switches can be used in scripts, and for system integration (links,
.desktop files, Automator scripts)
Same switches in -add2multi* form can be used to integration with
Windows registry
