With the introduction of Themes v.6, users can now fully customize in-app icons, allowing for deeper integration with alternative color palettes, from grayscale to cold and warm tones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those nostalgic for a simpler time, the new \u201c90s\u201d style layout offers a throwback experience complete with a classic treeview sidebar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Notably, several new dark-mode-optimized themes \u2014 including mac-dark, main-dark, ten-dark, and tux-dark \u2014 are now available, catering to users who want their UI to stay easy on the eyes. And yes, older theme versions down to v.3 are still supported, although updating to newer versions is recommended for full icon coverage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/linuxiac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/peazip104-app.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"648\" src=\"https:\/\/linuxiac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/peazip104-app-1024x648.jpg\" alt=\"PeaZip 10.4 open-source file archiver.\" class=\"wp-image-164896\" srcset=\"https:\/\/linuxiac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/peazip104-app-1024x648.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/linuxiac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/peazip104-app-380x240.jpg 380w, https:\/\/linuxiac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/peazip104-app-768x486.jpg 768w, https:\/\/linuxiac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/peazip104-app.jpg 1174w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">PeaZip 10.4 open-source file archiver.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the hood, PeaZip has upgraded its backend components to Pea 1.24 and Zstandard (Zstd) 1.5.7, ensuring faster and more reliable compression and decompression. These backend refinements come alongside a round of bug fixes that smooth out drag-and-drop operations and correct display issues in compact sidebar views at lower zoom levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Power users will appreciate the expanded script samples for CLI usage found in the &#8220;<em>(peazip)\/res\/share\/batch<\/em>&#8221; directory, along with a more reliable script generation experience \u2014 particularly when combining \u201cTAR before\u201d with \u201cDelete files after archiving.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the file manager now includes alternative context menus triggered by Ctrl, Shift, and Right-Click combinations, giving users quicker access to breadcrumb navigation, session history, and other handy options. Sorting in the Password Manager is also now supported, and additional metadata is available when browsing archives, including compression methods, file attributes, and even creation timestamps \u2014 when available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regarding supported file formats, PeaZip 10.4 also gets a boost, with the number of supported archive extensions now reaching 242. Moreover, security-conscious users will be glad that SHA256 hash values for each package are now conveniently published in a &#8220;<em>SHA256.txt<\/em>&#8221; file within every GitHub release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, on the extraction and archiving front, the update brings smarter handling of symlinks (now stored as links by default with the 7z backend) and better error checks to prevent accidental deletion of temporary archives when using the \u201c<em>Delete files after archiving<\/em>\u201d option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Refer to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/peazip.github.io\/changelog.html#peazip_bugfix_log\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">release notes<\/a>\u00a0for more information about all changes in the new version.
