7-Zip 24.09 stable version

What's new in 7-Zip 24.09:

• The default dictionary size values for LZMA/LZMA2 compression methods were increased:
  

The default dictionary size values for 32-bit versions of LZMA/LZMA2 don't exceed 64 MB.

- 7-Zip now can calculate the following hash checksums: SHA-512, SHA-384, SHA3-256 and MD5.
- APM and HFS support was improved.
- If an archive update operation uses a temporary archive folder and the archive is moved to the destination folder, 7-Zip shows the progress of moving the archive file, as this operation can take a long time if the archive is large.
- The bug was fixed: 7-Zip File Manager didn't propagate Zone.Identifier stream for extracted files from nested archives (if there is open archive inside another open archive).
- Some bugs were fixed.

7-Zip 26.01

What's new in 7-Zip 26.01:​

• linux version of 7-Zip can use huge pages (2 MB pages). It can increase compression speed for 10% for 7z/xz/LZMA/LZMA2 compression.
  
• new -spo[d|c|r] switch specifies the path generation mode for the output directory for archive extraction. The output directory path is generated from the path specified in the -o{dir_path} switch and the name of the archive being unpacked.
  -spod : for Linux/Posix/macOS: -o{dir_path} specifies the direct path to the output directory. The asterisk (*) character in {dir_path} will not be replaced by the archive name.
  -spoc : 7-Zip will concatenate the path specified in -o{dir_path} with the archive name to form the final path to the output directory.
  -spor : 7-Zip will replace asterisk (*) character in the path specified in the -o{dir_path} with the archive name. This is the default option.
  
• some bugs were fixed.
