    Lol, I can't think of a better way to ensure that it never gets implemented than to make a comment like this to the author.

    This is the Windows drag and drop doing. Instead of drag and drop, use the Extract-to functionality in the 7Zip File Manager to extract directly to the destination without going through temp files.

    LOL, I can think of few things worse than naming a file with a space at the beginning or end and then expecting systems to work well with that file... Having said that, how are you attempting to compress the file? Command line, or GUI? What are the exact steps and the exact command you are using? EDIT: Just ran some tests: I created a file as you mentioned with a leading space andattempted to compress it. I also specified another file that does not exist just to see what happens. I think it all works...

    .jar files are .zip files, per the specification: https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/18/docs/specs/jar/jar.html A JAR file is essentially a zip file that contains an optional META-INF directory. If you want to ask for capabilities aside from just opening the file and interacting with it, then state which additional capabilities you want... I mean: You have tried to open a .jar file as if it were a .zip file already, right? It's only a matter of associating the file extensions and that's it.

    Did you fix the "about" box possibly showing offscreen when in multiple monitors? I cannot make it happen any more :-) If so, thank you!
