Please note that on current version of Microsoft SmartScreen, new packages of PeaZip (likewise many other software packages) may be reported as possibly harmful software. The only solution for this issue is to proceed with installation anyway (with "more info" or other version-specific links in SmartScreen) and possibly to help fighting false positives reporting the software as safe to Microsoft. SmartScreen is a "reputation based" filter solely based on popularity of a package, and its rating is not presently influenced by quality factors as the software being published on a safe domain (including Microsoft-own ones like GitHub), supported by reputable package managers (including Microsoft winget) and reported as safe by antivirus (including Microsof ones...).

DOWNLOAD PEAZIP AS WINDOWS MSIX APP

PeaZip is also available as MSIX app for Windows 10, as alternative to the classic exe installer which works on all Windows versions.
To install PeaZip as MSIX app you need to install, una tantum, PeaZip's .cer certificate which is used to sign the package.
PeaZip Windows app is a full featured Win32 x86-64 software and requires a full featured Windows system supporting Win32 x86-64 bit API, like most of the current Windows 10 systems, it does not run on systems limited to Metro / RT / Modern / UWP / Universal APIs - this is likely less than a problem now Microsoft is finally bringing full x86-64 emulation to Windows on ARM.

Please be advised that PeaZip MSIX it is currently not published on Microsoft Store, but instead Microsoft Store (which in theory should host only applications that undergo a thorough validation process, and be closely monitored) hosted and is still hosting - notwithstanding multiple reports - various scam apps using PeaZip's name and logo, not preserving license files as required by LGPL3 license, and hijacking users to third party domains not connected in any way with PeaZip project: you are strongly advised to avoid those apps!

PEAZIP WINGET DOWNLOAD & INSTALL

As alternative, PeaZip is also available through new Microsoft Windows' package manager winget

• PeaZip can be installed running "winget install -e peazip" command; -e parameters searches for exact match excluding extra applications erroneously matching on plain "winget install peazip" command
  

• "winget show -e peazip" displays information for the last available version in winget package management system

With some versions of winget PeaZip can be installed only running winget as administrator, due a known winget install bug applying to various software packages.
