The developer of the open source archiver application 7-Zip, Igor Pavlov, has released the new version of the application 24.08.
The new version 24.08 is available on the official website – repository. You can check the version of the application you are using from the path Help – About 7-Zip
Here is a list of significant changes compared to the last version
- For creating a zip archive: 7-Zip could write extra zero bytes after the end of the archive, if a file included in the archive cannot be compressed to a size smaller than the original.
- The created zip archive is correct except for the useless zero bytes after the end of the archive.
- When unpacking such a zip archive, 7-Zip displays a warning:
- "WARNING: There are data after the end of archive".
- The bug was fixed: there was a leak of GDI objects (internal resources in Windows) in “Confirm File Replace” window, causing problems after 1600 displays of “Confirm File Replace” window from the same running 7-Zip process.
- Some optimizations for displaying file icons in 7-Zip File Manager and in “Confirm File Replace” window.
- Some bugs were fixed.
