    I like everthing about PeaZip except it's lack of unicode support. I still have to use 7 Zip frequently to deal with unicode filenames and paths.

    This is an excellent and free software.
    But, don't download it from here, as the file here is not the full program.
    I think it is stupid for this site not to provide the full installer which is only about 6 MB in size.

    Since peazip and 7zip both use the 7zip algorithm, comparison-wise it makes no difference. This is of course a much more powerful program and a much slicker gui. But again I only use it for the secure delete as freearc can make 7zip's quite easily as well. Between the four; freearc, this one, 7zip and winrar, it's just a matter of which one you prefer. Winrar has terrible compression next to the others but it integrates well if that's your bag.

    Not perfect, but pretty good. I think Winrar is still the best, but Peazip supports much better encryption than Winrar does, it also supports using keyfiles for the encryption, including 7zip files, which 7zip doesn't even support.

    Thank you for the concern but I've never used this user name on any other site but this one. If it exists elsewhere it's not by me... Actually there are many sites that simply copy software reviews and show them as if it's their original content. That's probably what you're talking about but in any case it's not me posting all over the place.

    BTW, it's pretty weird you Googled this user name.

    But in any case, I do tend to review mostly software I dislike with this user name. I use another user name for positive reviews. Gee, why would that be? Can you figure it out? (Apparently you can't. It's not a nefarious purpose as you suggest.)

    Regarding PeaZip, it still sucks. Terrible interface, and there are better alternatives for free and for cost.

    "Still obscure buttons sitting on the status bar like Clipboard, bookmarks and history. WHY are they there?!"
    Hmm... maybe to show clipboard, bookmarks and history? :)
    Some apps hide them in menu, IMHO too scarcely visible, some others show them on the top, IMHO is intrusive, some on the left or right, which is fine for me, some at the bottom, which is fine too, expecially is the page layout is horizontal like in PZ's file manager.
    In general, top or bottom is better than left or right for implementing a two pane view for all file managers using a view similar to Windows' "details", like PZ, the opposite is true for vertical priority views, like Windows' "view icons".

    Albeit it still opens multiple instances it does seem to behave smarter and does have the secure delete ability. That and multiple archive creation sets this above 7zip which btw looks gradeschool next to peazip's gui and theming abilities.
    For people complaining about looks please see an eye doctor asap.
    Winrar will still be the one for general manipulation but this will come in handy as well.
    Still if it could all be handled within one instance that would be awesome.

    Nice GUI, but I don't use the GUI. Nice context menu options, and I do use the context menu. The fact it doesn't handle IMG and NRG archives is a deal killer. Setup file size is unnecessarily large, 4700 KB compared to 7-Zip 900 KB. I'll be sticking with 7-Zip for now, but will check back after another update or 2.

    I do recommend it to the average user, but not if you like to extract IMG and NRG files.

    Reviewing 2.6.3 (Jul 14, 2009)

    Exactly. I can install either 7zip or winrar or both and easily set them to do whatever I want without having to read directions. Winrar handles multiple archives, files, folders without exception. 7zip has optimal compression but will not create multiple archives at once. Peazip has option to save current settings which I find entirely useless as even IT will not create multiple archives and had a problem in selecting more than a file at a time. For an ap to have the ability to create multiple archives from a single selection but then also to have just as many instances open for each archive it creates is absolutely unacceptable. If this is a limitation or other I definitely don't want to read about it. Bottom line, there are too many instances wherein I need an ap that can handle manipulating many archives at once without me needing to give it directions, or baybysit them with bedtime stories.

    @anomoly
    Would you please just take time to read the documentation before spending 10x the time to write absurdities on the web?
    you can add multiple files and dirs to a single archive from the application itself: open peazip and just add files to the archive... or just drag them to the application (this way you are not limited to add only from the folder you are browsing as in 7zip, winrar, winzip and the others)... or you can just use the SendTo menu entry (just one click away) "Add to archive" rather than the context menu entry "Add to SEPARATE archives" (did you get the SEPATATE part?).
    Why not from context menu (this is in documentation too)? Because Windwos API sucks and you can't pass multiple itmes through a context menu entry, unless you write specific code to query the system for selected items... defeating the purpose of writing a multiplatform application and bounding developers to work for Windows word... nice move Microsoft, I guess there are just people deserving the Monopoly.

    STFU luluz. At peazip's early stage it could not handle multiple archive creation from the selection of multiple files. I requested this specifically. No matter from right click or send to (from the gui itself it is impossible) you have multiple instances opening for each archive it tries to create. can you read??? Winrar is the ONLY ap I am aware of which can compress a virtually unlimited # of folders & or files AT ONE TIME within a SINGLE INSTANCE of itself, mimized to the tray in the background, and will even delete the originals upon completion so that once you start the compression, NO MORE input is needed WHATSOEVER. com****inprende?. winrar's compression leaves something to be desired but it's capabilities are apparently in a leaugue of it's own. I may as well use 7-zip albeit it has a few less features.

    Amongst other positive aspects, this program is very fast to start up and also it is very fast to open huge archives.
    As for the user interface, color marking for folders and archives rows make browsing very simple and intuitive.

    btw, a) never had problems in switching flat and browse mode, and b) as WinRAR and 7-Zip, the program is SUPPOSED to let you browse both inside and outside archives, so I really don't understand who complains of it behaving exactly as any other (good) archive manager.

    Interface is ok, although some items are not intuitive and some labels still leave me wondering. 2 biggest issues for me is: 1. Slow to startup (10s) 2. The browser mode interface does not show tree view and even seems to not show the folders very distinctly. I went to flat mode, now it won't go back to the browser mode. I also allows to you browse outside of the archive which can get confusing if you didn't intend to.

    I've used all 2.* releases and after a few sessions IMHO most users will find the GUI is fully usable: simple since hides unwanted finesses to basic users, powerful since allows high level of freedom and interaction to advanced users.

    I've used this program for awhile. It's not the only compression software that I use but I find in some cases that it is amazingly useful in its own ways such as joining split files and splitting files among other things.

    The only issue I really have with the program is the UI. I find it not be especially intuitive.

    Using winrar 4.65 now and it is FLAWLESS.
    I am on an amd with a gig of ram.
    If gui was fixed so that options did not freakin' vanish AND it could hold a default compression value without looking for another file (ridiculous). I would install this again.
    I used it every day for a couple months but got tired of the gui issue etc.
    At least now it has progress indicators. ?
    7-zip (format) is better than rar imo.
    Almost forgot.
    One other peeve is if it extracts the same data twice it renames files and creates extra work for me.
    Exactly why it needs a default compression value that DEFINITELY does not do that.

    great to finally see drag and drop support. Now if we could only get an option to delete files from within the archive...

    Neat looking program, supports lots of formats, and does them well (7z works as well as the official 7z app). Another nice feature is being able to make each selected file a separate archive, a feature I've been longing for with 7zip. However, the interface is somewhat counter-intuitive, like when you go to options, to get out of it, you need to go to 'File' -> 'Main'. Also the context menu's aren't cascaded, which makes my context menu twice it's normal size, not cool.

    Very good, many smart improvements here and there over previous versions, overall better and even more usable.

    @sammCA
    lpaq5.exe is a 9KB open source program released by compression researchers (see http://cs.fit.edu/~mmahoney/compression/ ) and it's not likely to come with Windoze malware... anyway I tested it (from PeaZip and PeaZip_portable) with latest AVG virus definition and no malware was found.
    I also tested the lpaq5 executable in PeaZip with original one from Mahoney's site, through PeaZip's compare function :), and they are byte to byte identical, so your report may either be a false positive or the file may have get corrupted after the download (you can test it with original one as I did).

    Um-m-mh - Attempted installation of the mobile version (at least) seems to give a virus error: "New Malware.j" in \res\lpaq\lpaq5.exe.

    (Otherwise, the utility looks admirable)

    Drag n Drop support would be nice.
    Providing it can extract archives of type (.001 .002 .003 etc), which it couldn't before, it will be close to perfect.
    Love the gui. Merits a 10 (ugly? get your eyes checked)
    As far as being slow, it depends on your setup. Winrar slows explorer to a halt. Peazip is very robust and I haven't noticed this in particular.

    C'mon man, have you even tried the app or just watched the vrey out of date screenshot?
    Keyboard shortcuts are everywhere, you can see them in archiving and extraction context menus and are documented in the FM.

    Good point to have an universal GUI for other compression technologies, but it still lacks lots of features, and is a bit ugly.

    good start but..

    where is the drag and drop?

    why does it stall and extract slower than izarc/tugzip?

    otherwise, keep up the good work.

    PeaZip is a very good utility in the way 7-Zip should be heading. Aestetically pretty refined, pretty simple but very capable. Ironically the weakest point is the PEA format, which does not seem to have any advantage in terms of compression over 7z files (fortunately fully supported bt PeaZip). Anyway, the program IMO deserves 5/5.

    VERY VERY nice. With basic default settings blew away winrar in compression to 7zip format as opposed to winrar's rar at fastest. Will create separate archives for each file. (7-zip: day late & a $ short). KEEPER
    goodbye winrar
