PeaZip Free Archiver

GitHub	GitHub Latest	SourceForge	Flathub

PeaZip is a free archive manager utility for BSD, Linux, macOS, and Windows, which offers a cross-platform Open Source alternative to proprietary software (WinZip, WinRar, etc.), also available as portable package not requiring installation.

Works with 200+ archive types and variants (7z, ace, arc, brotli, bz2, cab, gz, iso, pea, rar, tar, wim, zip, zipx, zpaq, zstandard...), handles spanned archives (001, r01, z01...).

Can convert existing archives, split/join files, edit comments, search in archives, add files to separate archives.

Supports multiple archive encryption standards, provides file hashing tools, and can export GUI tasks as CLI scripts.

PeaZip also provides a capable file manager: bookmarking, search, instant content filter, duplicate files detection, integrated text, hex, and image viewers.
