Password encryption for .7z

[csq]

Hi to everybody!

Recently I was asked to compress some files by 7z thru TC UP plugin and it was revealed that password protection is not possible for .7z unless there is a possibility to protect file by zip. However, www.7-zip.org assures that "Strong AES-256 encryption is avaliable for free 7zip". Then I found that it is possible to do thru plugin settings. Anyway, I suppose it would be much more usefull to use password protection option in the same manner as for zip and rar (with winrar, of course).
To sum up: is it possible to make this option in next release of TC UP?

We can do nothing but suggest the 7zip plugin author to update his work.
But it may be unnecessary because Total Commander 7.5 enters beta testing stage, there's no full changelog published, but it's not unlikely that it will add internal support for 7zips.

Thanks!

It would be great to see this option in TC 7.5

By the way, you touched that some changelogs are already released. Could you be so kind and publish it somewhere on TC UP forum. Thanks in advance!

That's all I know. Besides this there are only speculations.

No internal support for 7zips. We'll contact the 7zip plugin author.
