Thank you! I just tested Danish letters: That doesn't work - with 'zip', but it works with '7z'... That's a bit odd...: :~/7z2103-linux-x64$ ./7zz a archive.zip -p"Hvad med danske æøå" "*.txt" 7-Zip (z) 21.03 beta (x64) : Copyright (c) 1999-2021 Igor Pavlov : 2021-07-20 64-bit locale=en_GB.UTF-8 Threads:4, ASM Scanning the drive: 3 files, 59618 bytes (59 KiB) Creating archive: archive.zip Add new data to archive: 3 files, 59618 bytes (59 KiB) System ERROR: E_INVALIDARG : One or more arguments are...

Thank you!

If I want this password: Simple password Are you suggesting this command?: ./7zz a a.7z 1.txt "-pSimple password" I think that looks strange... :-)

But not like this?: $ ./7zz a archive.7z -p"Simple pw" "*.txt"

Edit / addition: Don't read this message! The solution is in my next message! These are my archiving commands: :~/7z2103-linux-x64$ ./7zz a archive.zip -p{Uden danske og andre specialtegn} "*.txt" :~/7z2103-linux-x64$ ./7zz a archive.7z -p{Uden danske og andre specialtegn} "*.txt" And these are the unpacking commands that work on Ubuntu 20.04: :~/7z2103-linux-x64$ ./7zz e archive.zip -p{Uden danske og andre specialtegn} "." :~/7z2103-linux-x64$ ./7zz e archive.7z -p{Uden danske og andre specialtegn}...

I also tried this even simpler password: :~/7z2103-linux-x64$ ./7zz a archive.zip -p{very-simple-pw} ".txt" :~/7z2103-linux-x64$ ./7zz a archive.7z -p{very-simple-pw} ".txt" NOW it works... The problem is that {} are part of the password...! But that was not how I had understood the manual! So how do you specify a password containing 'space' and maybe even non-English letters etc.?
