PeaZip 10.6.0 overhauls the file/archive browser introducing dynamic virtual mode, which improves performances when displaying a large number of items at once.
Archive pre-parsing is improved, show/hide hidden files is made easier, and Settings now features a search function.
Non-Windows builds can now automatically locate RAR binary (if available), and use alternative 7z fork to support Brotli, Lizard, LZ4, LZ5, Zstd additional codecs for .7Z format.
Backed are updated to 7z 25.01, Pea 1.26, and Zpaqfranz, which replaces Zpaq keeping full compatibility.
Sources are compiled with Lazarus 4.2, and are still compatible with Lazarus 3.x and 2.x.
UPDATE 2025 08 09: Windows packages were repacked on the fly, and SHA256.txt updated accordingly
- Zpaqfranz 62.5 replaces 61.6 which triggered false positives on some AV
- some of the sfx modules for 7z and Arc were removed for the same reason
- PeaZip 32 bit (legacy packages) were stripped of all offending binaries

Improvements in speed to display the content of large archives due to optimizations introduced in 10.5 and 10.6 releases, benchmark on archives containing 25K items, 250K items, and 25K items in the same directory
