    What's new in latest alpha update:

    1 No information about the 7-zip32.dll into descript.ion and readme.txt
    2 May be possible to add a progress bar on the taskbar in 7-Zip for Win 7? It's an alpha version, let users test …

    1. I'll fix it
    2. I don't use win7 still, so I can't debug such code.

    Hello

    a) I think it would be better to use v9.30.x alpha because 9.20 final is already out and it is not only a minor bugfix version

    b) please add at the end of the installer the option/checkbox "Start 7-Zip File Manager"

    c) I cannot use my back/forward mouse buttons to navigate through the folders. This would be a great feature.

    d) http://www.album.de/bild/2005266/7zip-92011alpha-error-01.cfm
    I selected "Verzeichniseintrag .. anzeigen" and clicked on "Übernehmen" -> "Ein Ereignis konnte keinen Abonnenten aufrufen."
    (Win7 Ultimate x64 de/en; UAC on; 7-zip started as non-admin)

    I don't use win7 still, so I can't debug such code.

    And if we donate ? Or you can use the 90day trail: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-US/evalcenter/cc442495

    Thanks

    c) - I don't know about these things.
    d) please check english version or write in english.

    I have win7, I just don't want to use it now. Maybe later.

    c) Like it is in Windows Explorer or in FTP Clients.
    Back = go to parent folder ("..") / Forward = jump to the last used folder

    d) Tools -> Options -> Settings
    "Verzeichniseintrag .. anzeigen" = Show .. item
    "Übernehmen" = Apply
    "Ein Ereignis konnte keinen Abonnenten aufrufen." = ??? (the message make no sense for me)

    You can use Win7 in a Virtual Machine (VirtualBox, VMware, …)

    re 7,  if you have win7 ccan't see why you dopn't use it to test 7zip. You can download virtualbox (60M installer)- & install (in 10 minutes!) - vmware takes longer IMO & is more complex, then install win7 in vbox on xp or vista assuming you have 2G memory.

    В справке читаем:

    he=
    Enables or disables archive header encryption. The default mode is he=off.

    Если я правильно понимаю, то указание ключа -mhe эквивалентно ключу -mhe=off . Но тест показывает обратное -mhe эквивалентно ключу -mhe=on

    -m
    always means
    -m=on

    default value - the value if switch is not specified at all.
