If getting Certum certificate is out of question, then I can suggest a free alternative using the free and open source: "XCA - X Certificate and Key Management".
To make it more easy for users to know it came from the true developer.Ĭertum Code Signing OpenSource certificate, seems the only one that one can obtain, and that should be universally accepted by default everywhere. I would suggest that 7-zip files are digitally sign.

The only "technical consideration" I can think of is mostly the fact that someone could modify the files as they are being compressed (which is already the case but I guess probability increases if you are rebooting or "doing something else"), but I think as noted before this can already happen now so it's not a factor that would mean such feature cannot be implemented.Īgain, thanks for making an epic compression software and for finally increasing the dictionary size! Finally good use for my RAM :D So far, I have managed to workaround this issue by using a virtual machine and simply suspending it, but I think on a technical level nothing would prevent 7zip from being able to grab its current state and save it somewhere, then load it later and continue where it left off. Other times you absolutely need to power it down because for example there is an unforeseen power grid maintenance planned etc.

Sometimes you need to reboot your PC - update a driver or even the infamous windows update. The reason is simple - using the best compression settings can result in incredibly long compression times (I've had some compressions of highly compressible "incremental backup" datasets last ~2 weeks. Being able to pause compression, store current progress (the in-memory dictionary + current progress) to some temporary file and then resume. In short - ability to "hibernate" compression progress. I am very happy that you have extended the maximum dictionary size! With it though, I have one "feature request" or feature for consideration, which I think none of the other compression software has, that would be quite awesome to have.
