| Technical Details | The 7z compressed archive format was designed to be extensible, to allow it to easily adopt new compression algorithms as they are released. As of writing, the 7z format had support for seven compression algorithms namely LZMA, LZMA2, PPMD, BCJ, BCJ2, BZip2, and DEFLATE. The default algorithm used for compression is LZMA. It is also compatible with the stronger AES-256 encryption algorithm and is capable of compressing file structures of up to 16 Exabyte in size. Filenames can use any characters from the Unicode character set. 7z does not ignore errors found in headers of compressed archives, and as such will not open such archives. |
