What's new after 7-Zip 19.00: sourceforge.net/p/sevenzip/discussion/45797/thread/2839b954b9/#d7ae 7-Zip now can unpack files encoded with Base64 encoding (b64 filename extension). 7-Zip now can use new x86/x64 hardware instructions for SHA-1 and SHA-256, supported by AMD Ryzen and latest Intel CPUs: Ice Lake and Goldmont. It increases the speed of SHA-1/SHA-256 hash value calculation, the speed of encryption/decryption in zip AES, the speed of key derivation for encryption/decryption in 7z/zip/rar archives. The speed of zip AES encryption and 7z/zip/rar AES decryption was increased with the following improvements: 7-Zip now can use new x86/x64 VAES (AVX Vector AES) instructions, supported by Intel Ice Lake CPU. The existing code of x86/x64 AES-NI was improved also. There is 2% speed optimization in 7-Zip benchmark's decompression. Some bugs were fixed.
The source code of new version and another additional packages will be released later after some testing period.
>still no recovery records >still no proper handling of split archives >7z extraction speeds are still horrible 7z is FOSS garbage shilled by people who never did any real work with archives. Even scene groups are smart enough to avoid this pile of shit called 7z
Leo Stewart
now add it to the UI and maybe it worth a shit for people whose time is worth money

lol okay retard
Kevin Rivera
>>still no proper handling of split archives Just curious: can WinRAR do differential split archives? 7-zip can only do differential if they're not split and that sucks.
Jaxon Morris
>can WinRAR do differential split archives? yes
Juan Clark
>still no recovery records USELESS
Nathaniel Hall
>needing recovery records
Sorry, but my TLS1.3 encrypted TCP connection is stable. Why do i need this unless I'm on brazilian dial-up?
Never had to use a recovery record again since 2004 and shitty filesharing.
BASED 7-ZIP KEEPS KILLING THE WINRAR CUC_KS THAT ACTUALLY PAID MONEY FOR SHITTY SOFTWARE
Christian Barnes
Newbie here.
How do they manage such low level optimizations? Is the 7-zip core handwritten bytecode? Do they rely on new compilers support for the latest bytecodes (which would be magic, so I don't think so) or on some special library that has been itself handwritten for different hardwares (most plausible I'ld guess)?
Adrian Morales
ain't nobody got time to live in the terminal and come up with convoluted shit like that on the fly all the time
Jace Murphy
fuck off with your hacker bullshit
Asher Reed
imagine being this fucking stupid, lmao I can copy paste that shit faster than you can move your mouse to open up a fucking gay archiving program, retard
Ian Miller
use the bittorrent protocol to download things if you have unstable internet, or use rsync, brainlet.
Nolan Young
Why can't you just copy the WinRAR interface to the GUI? Why does it have to suck?
Keep coping 7z tards. In the end .rar has better/more features and has a better performance/compression ratio with rar5. All the scene groups are using .rar as well because 7z is so fucking bad. Handling split archives with 7z is a pain, typical foss garbage. Weeb incels gonna cope.
Ian Cook
Why hasn't there been any improvements in compression efficiency during the last 10 years ?
Easton Hernandez
What makes you think there hasn't been?
Daniel Long
>using a format optimized for tape drives the sad thing is that most formats that have file index and compress before packing don't support proper metadata, though
Luis Ramirez
I mean in 7zip specifically

idk man, ive gor all this stuff built into dolphin. I think its just an .ark integration though.
Jose Reyes
>false You can't do incremental/differential with split archives in 7-zip. I didn't try with WinRAR yet, but some user said you can.
Joshua Barnes
than do it in python, dirs = os.listdir() for dir in dirs: os.system(f'7z.exe a "{dir}.zip" "{dir}"')
Daniel Moore
How? I found this winrar.exe a -se -ag+YYYYMMDD_diff_ -k -m4 -ms -os -r -ep1 -ao e:\mydoc.rar @mydocpath.txt
It works if there's a single existing .rar, but what do I enter if there are many of them (part01, part02...)?
John Gomez
That's horrible At least make a small attempt at not writing such horrid scripts for f in ./*; do [[ -d $f ]] && 7z a "./$(basename "$f").7z" "$f"; done
Lucas White
>using shell The whole world knows Python. Nobody cares about shell scriot.
Carson Sanchez
mkdir -- $'--help\nrm -rf *' Have fun with your python script (also, it zips files too, not just folders)
