What does PeaZip 11.0.0 improve over older versions?

UI overhaul with Qt6, 2FA auth, ARM64 support, faster multi-format handling—basically, it feels current without bloat.

Can PeaZip 11.0.0 replace 7-Zip completely?

For most users, yes—better interface, similar speeds. Power users might dual-wield for edge cases.

Absolutely—open-source audited, strong ciphers, now with modern auth to prevent key theft.

Tired of 7-Zip's dated interface or WinRAR's nag screens? PeaZip 11.0.0 just fixed that—for free. Real people win when open source skips the hype.
