Gamingdeputy reported on May 23,NanaZip It is an open source compression tool based on 7-Zip, with a simple and beautiful interface, and is adapted to the Win 11 right-click menu.
NanaZip 3.0 The major version update has now been officially released, and starting from this version, two distribution versions will be provided, namely NanaZip and NanaZip Classic. At the same time, packaging support for 32-bit x86 systems has also been canceled (the 32-bit Classic version is limited to the portable version, not Supports right-click menu, but still retains Win32 GUI and Win32 CLI).

Supported platforms: x86 (32-bit and 64-bit) and ARM (64-bit)
The developer said: NanaZip will no longer be just a simple 7-Zip fork from now on. The relationship between NanaZip and 7-Zip is more like Chromium and WebKit. Most of the improvements provided by NanaZip in the future will not be merged into the main 7-Zip program by Igor Pavlov; however, NanaZip will continue to keep pace with the latest 7-Zip mainline version. Therefore, the developer rewrote and split the code of the core library and the self-extracting executable file, making it a separate NanaZip.Core project to be maintained, and other NanaZip parts will also be modernized as soon as possible.
In addition, the developer also said that he is trying to rewrite the modern 7-Zip plug-in development kit (SDK) in pure C++/WinRT style in the future. Because Igor Pavlov makes a lot of changes every time he releases a new version, he needs an easier way to develop plug-ins for 7-Zip and NanaZip.

It is worth mentioning that NanaZip also offers a sponsored version of the in-app purchase plug-in in the Microsoft Store for US$99.99 (Gamingdeputy Note: currently about RMB 725) to attract more sponsors and contributors (all users and source code contributors who have sponsored NanaZip before March 30, 2024 are free).
There is no functional difference between the sponsored version and the normal version. The only difference is that a “Thank you for your sponsorship” button will be displayed in the toolbar instead of the “Sponsor NanaZip ” button in the normal version, which is similar to the management of Visual Studio member mode.
