Software update: PeaZip 5.7.2

Version 5.7.2 of PeaZip has been released. This archiving program is made available under an open source license, and downloads are available for Windows and Linux. The program aims to distinguish itself from the competition by specializing in safety. Encrypting data is therefore one of the main functions of the proprietary system pea format. PeaZip can create 7z, bz2, gz, paq/lpaq, pea, quad, tar, upx and zip files, and extract various file formats including ace, arj, cab, deb, iso, lha , rar and rpm. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

backend

• Updated to 7z 15.06 (Windows)
  • Users can chose to extract RAR5 files alternatively using 7z (default) or RarLab’s unrar plugin, setting “7z/p7zip UNRAR5” switch in Options > General

File manager

• Improved file/archive browser sorting

Windows installer

• Fixed bug not removing PeaZip group entry on uninstall (affected 32 bit version, W7+ only)
