7-Zip version :- 24.08.00.0

Thanks,

you used old version 7za.exe 22.00 that doesn't support arm64 filter method:

7-Zip (a) 22.00 (x64)

note that 7za.exe and 7z.exe from 7-Zip are different files.

But I have latest version of 7-zip installed on my PC:-

PS C:\> get-addRemoveSoftware -ApplicationName '*7-zi*'
AppName                   Version    NormalizedVersion InstallDate
-------                   -------    ----------------- -----------
7-Zip 24.08 (x64 edition) 24.08.00.0 24.8.0.0          10/12/2024 12:00:00 AM

Doesn't 7za.exe upgrade along with the application?

[Igor Pavlov]

7za.exe is not part of main 7-zip package.
7za.exe is external reduced command line version that supports only main archive formats: 7z, zip, tar, gz,bz2, xz,zstd,cab,tar.

You can dowload new 7za.exe here in "7-Zip extra" package from:
