Alongside several enhancements and fixes, PeaZip 6.8.1 introduces full integration with native Windows drag & drop for extraction from archives and for file copy / move operations.
The new native drag & drop extraction process automatically removes extra directory nesting and interactively ask for overwriting existing files, while retaining the speed, stability and security advantages of previous custom drag and drop implementation (still available as option).
Archives are now tested for encryption before extraction, and progress bar accuracy is improved.
