    It would be very helpful to have an additional option to set the "Working folder" to be: "destination (target) folder". Currently, I have to go in and manually set the "specified folder" to whichever drive I happen to be sending the large, compressed output file to. I generally don't want to compress the file to the system's temp directory, because the system drive isn't always large enough, and it is often an SSD. After compressing it, it then has to copy it over to wherever it's going. Similarly,...

    Hello, I have a damaged 7z archive of size 5,212,282,403 bytes created with 7-Zip (most probably 26.01) with no password. Archive was created in old PC (which is no longer available). Months later I copied the archives from the USB drive to a new PC. 7-Zip now reports Öpen Error: Cannot open the file as (7z) archives ERROR: Is not archive. SHA256 hash of the archive on the USB drive and copied version are identical. 7-Zip cannot list, test, or extract the archive DMDE raw scan found a second 7z object...

    It sounds like the issue may be related to how 7-Zip parses specific UDF 2.5 structures generated by XReveal or AnyDVD rather than corruption in the ISO itself. Since UltraISO appears to rewrite or normalize the image structure, that would explain why the file becomes readable afterward. I've encountered similar compatibility problems where one application handles a file format perfectly while another struggles with certain metadata or filesystem implementations. The same thing happens in the Android...

    Hi Igor, Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. Your intuition about the USB bottleneck is spot on, and I was indeed operating under a severe hardware constraint. During the 7-Zip operation, I was simultaneously running a 97 GB ROBOCOPY from my internal SSD to the exact same USB 3.0 destination drive. I had to do this out of necessity due to limited free space on the host (SSD) C: drive (99.9% full), which also forced me to place the temp folder on the same USB 3.0 drive. Here are the system...

    Maybe your usb was slow for data writing by some reason. What is your usb drive and speed of that usb? Try to copy some big file to that usb. Maybe you will have similar problems write more information about issue: what archive type: zip or 7z? compression settings do you create new archive ot update previous version of archive? number of original files total size of original files archive size cpu ram size windows system

    This is still unassigned and nobody is assigned to the associated issue on GitHub (https://github.com/ip7z/7zip/issues/233). Looking for an update please.

  • Igor Pavlov Igor Pavlov posted a comment on discussion Help

    Do you have virtual memory enabled in system? Note also that 7-zip can update archive. So 7-Zip uses more complex operation for some cases, where some data can be recompressed from previous copy of archive. It's better to remove old archive before creating new archive, if you don't need old data. Sometimes this message The System cannot allocate the required amount of memory" may appear as a result of unexpected program failures.

    All these two (CVE-2026-14266 and CVE-2026-58052) have been fixed in 7-Zip version 26.02 (current latest) according to, for example, these sites: https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2026/07/17/12 https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/7-zip-mark-of-the-web-bypass-via-rar5-alternate-data-stream-name-collision I don't know why qualsys has flagged this (current?) version. Any details on that software (web or local soft), process (how procedure was done)?

    After a reboot (NOT: shutdown+cold start) 7zip works (with Dictionary size=2256MB) . Very strange. No, I didn't change anything for virtual memory

  • Igor Pavlov Igor Pavlov modified a comment on discussion Help

    Please change "Dictionary size" from 256 MB to 64 MB and try again. Did you change virtual memory settings in your Windows system?

    I want to 7zip a large directory tree with a size of ~15GB and ~74000 files. When I start 64bit 7zip v26.02 on a 64bit Windows 10 system with 16GB RAM and 1,1 TB free space on SSD 7zip shows me an error popup: "The System cannot allocate the required amount of memory" Hmm, in the past I could successfully 7zip such directory trees with similar size.

    I found another topic from 2024 that appears to be very close to my current experience. In other words, you’ve already read Igor’s reply to your question :-) So either rebind the *.7z file association to 7z-FM, or go blame Windows support for hijacking the opening of 7z archives with their substandard code, which doesn’t support encrypted archives.

  • Tish Tish posted a comment on discussion Open Discussion

    Hey! I know it's not standard, but since 7z fork exists which brings in other compression methods via plugin system, I'd like to see just decompressing support in main 7z software. Would that be possible? zstd is the one that already has support, but only in ZIP archives. Could it be done, pretty please?

  • Keith Schlesinger Keith Schlesinger posted a comment on discussion Open Discussion

    I am currently experiencing the same symptoms in Windows 11 version 25H2. It did not happen until I did an in-place 25H2 upgrade to fix a number of corrupted system files that SFC and DISM commands could not repair or replace. Since the in-place upgrade, I must open 7-zip and navigate to the file with the internal file explorer. Then the encrypted file can be opened using the password I assigned. Just tapping on the .7z archive itself produces an error message every time. (See attachment)

    I see requests for this go way back but I really think it is time this program gets an auto update feature or at least an update version notification. Escpecially with the latest news about the vulnerability. I hope the developer seriously considers this feature now to be added.

  • Jack Bravo Jack Bravo posted a comment on discussion Open Discussion

    If Qualys is flagging 7-Zip 26.02, the best solution is to upgrade to the latest version as soon as a patched release is available. Until then, avoid opening XZ or RAR5 archives from untrusted sources, and consider temporarily blocking those file types in your environment. If an updated version has already been released, updating should resolve the vulnerability findings after rescanning.

    7z stores files in "solid" groups for better compression. Directory entry is just metadata without data. So directory entries are stored outside of file groups.

  • Zhai Can Zhai Can posted a comment on ticket #703

    A copy from yazi's author as a reference, stating the idea - Yeah that's exactly why previewers (not just archive.lua), are designed to do as little data processing as possible. For performance, doing less may be better than using a smarter algorithm. My idea hasn't changed much: ask 7-Zip to add an option to 7z l: Non-mandatory: Prefer outputting the list sequentially rather than interleaved. Mandatory: Sort the list before outputting it. As you said, if 7z already outputs everything at once, it...
