A high-severity vulnerability has been fixed in WinRAR, the popular file archiver utility for Windows used by millions, that can execute commands on a computer simply by opening an archive.
Thanks! I’ve been happy with 7-Zip for Windows, but what you’re describing sound like an upgrade with few downsides, if any. I’ll try it next time I get the chance!
How does it compare to 7-Zip?
They are basically a vitamined frontend + custom backend for 7zip-zstd supporting several other formats such as lzip.

Another pro is that PeaZip is multi platform and could be used in MacOS and GNU/Linux.
7-Zip is multi platform too

That version is not official. Was a rework made by an external user.
I remember the main author was trying to rework their custom version but yes, no GUI.

It support zip, rar, 7z. Basically all archive formats. It has way better UI. It is open source. It is free in beer.
It is free as in speech. Your phrase refers to proprietary yet no cost software.
Free as in freedom is not a big argument for most people. But as in beer 😏
