I like the "PAQ8l" idea but I'm a bit short on time right now. Thanks for the suggestion and I'll keep it in mind. I'm sick of the WinRAR nag screen, and 7-Zip has better compression ratios and security. One of the problems with the 7-Zip Explorer Context Menu GUI is that it doesn't update existing archives by default. The whole archive is recreated, which is majorly annoying for large files.

hey CBG, you don't have to pay anything if you are using WinRAR, it just gives you a nag screen.

Explain to me how this is better than the regular 7Zip interface? "Right click and extract" already existed in the original interface and is not new at all? I suggest that instead of writing a GUI for an archiver which already has one, instead create one for a great archiver which doesn't yet have one (well, not one worth a damn anyway) - PAQ8l (http://cs.fit.edu/~mmahoney/compression/). And maybe make the interface have the archiver compress 2 files at once or do some other trick to make it take advantage of dualcore CPUs.

Pretty nice program. I wish for 1 button that would register all archive file types, and put a few extensions in the Explorer right-click menu. That would make it a very useful, portable app.
