The problem only for executable files (EXE DLL) in max/ultra mode, where 7-Zip uses 4 threads: BCJ2, LZMA2, LZMA, LZMA.
And it must select one of these threads for progress bar.
for 9.38 - it was LZMA2 thread.
for 15.09 - it's BCJ2 thread that works before LZMA2 thread.
There were some reasons to change it.

Thanx for a great app.
If we'll look at http://www.7-zip.org/links.html at Applications that work with .7z archives: Total Commander
- 7Zip Plugin from Adam Strzelecki
- MutiArc Plugin with 7z supporting
- 7z Plugin from Alexander Cherenkov
One more plugin is missed in that list - Total7Zip - http://totalcmd.net/plugring/Total7zip.html
But I decided to update Total7Zip 0.8.5.6 plugin that could be found on all forums. It was build on very old 7-zip 9.22 beta version. Last update of that plugin was previously done by developer at 20.11.2012 (almost 3 years ago!!!).
If you have any doubt about my updated plugin, you can do it yourself. Update could be done very easy. Plugin uses original 7-zip files, and you can use the latest version of 7-zip to update the plug-in (information could be found in readme.rtf file in plugin folder). So you need to unpack 32 and 64-bit files and language folder from 7Zip setups into corresponding folders of plugin (not all, of course, but only those that are necessary).
Why I decicded to do that and what Total7Zip plugin update gave to us?
Now we can unpack many new archive formats, that 7-Zip 15.09 now support:
- extract .zipx (WinZip) archives that use xz compression.
- extract GPT images and single file QCOW2, VMDK, VDI images.
- extract solid WIM archives with LZMS compression.
- extract ext3 and ext4 (Linux file system) images.
- extract ext2 and multivolume VMDK images.
- and huge number of bugs was fixed.
By the way, that plugins could be used not only in Total Commander, but also inFreeCommnader XE and Double Commander
And why Igor made his plugin only for Far manager? May be it's time to make plugin for other file managers and there would be no need in third party plugins (most of them work not so good as they should and were not supported for years)...
1) I use FAR Manager myself. So that plugin for FAR is important for me..
2) Third-party GUI file managers are not interesting for me. I have own GUI file manager - 7-Zip File Manager. And I don't plan to write plugins for some Commanders.

v15 not fully support the non-standard .VHD format file. IF .vhd file is built by VirtualBox or VMware, 7-zip can view one .img file inside only(built by Microsoft .VHD format no problem). most common emu CD programs or editior can view .vhd normally (such as UltraISO, PowerISO, WinImage.......)

If that parent file is stored in another folder

then 7-Zip can't find it.

Dear Igor,
I noticed today that md5 was not present in checksums. Whilst it is deprecated in crypto applications it is still a good file hashing algorithm and widely used for that. Many websites still tell you md5 values for their ISOs and what else.
Please consider adding md5 to checksums.
Greetings
EJ

Oh and Igor, maybe you will reply to this post and not ignore it:
Bug: 7z File Manager does not request admin rights when you turn on/off "Icons in context menus". Instead you get an error until you launch 7zfm with admin rights.
Have a good weekend!

There is a bug in the solid WIM support that causes garbage data to be extracted when a stream spans a chunk boundary, and that stream has more than one reference. I think that in WimIn.cpp, just before the following code...:
if (cur > rem)
cur = (size_t)rem;
RINOK(WriteStream(outStream, unpackBuf.Data + offsetInChunk, cur));
... this line should be added:
cur -= offsetInChunk;
The problem occurs when a stream duplication causes 7-Zip to decompress chunk 'n', then chunk 'n + 1', then chunk 'n' again as it steps backwards to read the duplicate stream again. It thinks it can write more bytes from the chunk than are really available.

i dont know very much about programming but maybe a month or two of testing a certain version without adding anything that could mess it, just focusing in bugs, could be called stable.

Thanks for the answer about third-party GUI file managers.
P.S. I only hope that on Links page info would be updated.

Bug: 7z File Manager does not request admin rights when you turn on/off "Icons in context menus". Instead you get an error until you launch 7zfm with admin rights.
Have a good weekend!
1) It can be difficult to implement now (request admin rights).
2) Maybe you don't need admin rights for menu icons.
Thank you, I understand now. My problem was more the error is very unspecific it should just say:
"You might need admin rights for this feature."
Instead of:
"An event couldn't invoke a subscriber."

For me it is very useful that 7-Zip support Windows XP because I am a ReactOS user/tester.

Hi Igor,
There is a bug in the solid WIM support that causes garbage data to be extracted when a stream spans a chunk boundary, and that stream has more than one reference. I think that in WimIn.cpp, just before the following code...:

Yes, I'll fix this BUG in next version.
Thanks for report!!!
Hey, i dont want to be THAT guy, but could be possible that you updated the stable version? the current one is 9.20 from 2010.
Thanks
Just read the forum!
i know less or more the position of igor about stable versions. but some people would like to have a really stable version with everything tested and working from time to time and in this case this program is as good as 5 years old.
i dont know very much about programming but maybe a month or two of testing a certain version without adding anything that could mess it, just focusing in bugs, could be called stable.
