Excellent general-purpose archiver. For those who complain about the "beta" state, it is just a word. I use it for years and found it very reliable, much more so than a lot of "release" software.

Why in the name of Odins beard do they continue to use these incredibly ugly icons, the application will never get anywhere as long as they continue to use them.

You can manually update the icons with the following link, but why do they not just change them??

7z1508-x64.exe
OPEN SOURCE, compared to copyright (foreign, unknown) stuff hidden in newish RAR, etc.
Also available as 32 bit.
Allows compression, decompression of many file types.
Regularly improved, upgraded, with compatibility with many older & freeware versions.
State of the art GUI menu interface, with good folder usage, file usage.
Version inbuilt into my favorite file browser (Servant Salamander) is faster, & almost as tightly compressed.
7-zip is used as a benchmark standard by many reviewing sites.
Benchmarking allows 8-core tests.
Ultra-compilation only allows 2-core, with very small improvement on overall compression.

Pros: - very well designed efficient "7z" format (fast, high compression rate)
- supports most common formats
- open source, pipeline architecture
- stable, no bloat

Cons: no support for RAR, no error-correction

Bottom Line: Excellent general-purpose archiver. For those who complain about the "beta" state, it is just a word. I use it for years and found it very reliable, much more so than a lot of "release" software.

dhry, refer here for Igor Pavlov's own explanation as to what seems like 7-Zip's odd version numbering: http://sourceforge.net/p...n/45797/thread/e127e39c . This is an old explanation but still holds true.

Why the did version of this program go from 9.38 to 15.00?

Enlightenment

Enlightenment reviewed v9.38 Beta on Apr 4, 2015

7-Zip still doesn't support file recovery redundancy data to protect archive files against file damage, nor does 7-Zip support a larger file checksum than 32-bit CRC32.

WinRAR has options for file recovery and 256-bit BLAKE2 file hash.

7z isn't as robust for long-term storage as the better RAR file format.

Free is NOT always better!!
