    + File | File Special | Extract Here: Now it also supports RAR files (WinRAR 
      has to be installed), and it will extract all selected files (not only the 
      focused one). Note that you can extract ZIP and RAR files in one go, and 
      they can be from different locations.
    + Custom Context Menu | Zip: Now the commands "Extract Here" and "Extract to 
      [folder]" will extract all selected files (not only the focused one). Note 
      that you can extract ZIP and RAR files in one go, and they can be from 
      different locations.
      If more than one file is selected the menu item caption "Extract to 
      [folder]" is changed to "Extract Each Archive to Separate Folder".
    + Edit | Paste Special | Paste Extracted: Now it also supports RAR files 
      (WinRAR has to be installed), and it will extract all selected files (not 
      only the focused one). Note that you can extract ZIP and RAR files in one 
      go, and they can be from different locations.

To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install Package.

Note that BETA versions are work in progress and might contain fresh bugs. You have been warned.
It's a good idea to backup your complete XYplorer settings (menu File | Settings Special | Backup Application Data Folder...)
before running a new BETA version. This will also help in fixing any fresh bugs.

    + Custom Context Menu | Zip: Now the commands "Extract Here" and "Extract to 
      [folder]" also support RAR files. Of course, WinRAR has to be installed on 
      the system.
      XYplorer tries to find the needed helper file "UnRAR.exe" automatically in 
      the usual locations (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\WinRAR\UnRAR.exe). So if 
      you are reasonably lucky it should just work.
      If the preview fails you can tweak the location, for example:
        ZipPathUnRAR=C:\My Crazy Path To WinRAR\UnRAR.exe
    + SC zip_extract: Now it supports RAR files. Of course, WinRAR has to be 
      installed on the system.
      Existing files are overwritten without asking.
      Examples:
        zip_extract(); //extract currently selected RAR archive
        zip_extract("test.rar");
        zip_extract("test.rar", "out");
        zip_extract("test.rar", "out", "*.jpg");
        zip_extract("test.rar", "out", "läderlappen.jpg");
        zip_extract("test.rar", "out", "läderlappen.jpg|Musik-Putzmittel-Scan.jpg");

    * Menu View | Sort By | Random Order: Now when a tab is in random sort 
      order and go away from it and then come back, the previous order will be 
      restored. Before, a new random order was created in that situation.
      The random sort order will now also survive an explicit refresh or auto 
      refresh. So, to re-shuffle the items you have to call "View | Sort By | 
      Random Order" again.
    ! Hi-Res: On 325%+ screen resolution icon overlays (e.g. link arrow, dropbox 
      overlays) were drawn much too large. Fixed.

      dimensions via shell extensions (preview handlers) but not that fast.

    % Find List Item: Since v18.90.0119 - 2018-05-02 16:47 you got a command 
      "Find..." in the context menu of all smaller lists throughout the 
      interface. Added the keyboard shortcut (F4) to the menu item. Yep, it 
      existed all the time but nobody knew.
    % Configuration | Colors and Styles | Color Filters: Now when you use 
      filters like T:prop:#Label:Orange>,EE9D2F the Tree is automatically

      Extra).

    * Menu View | Paper Folders | Save: Now you'll see a short feedback in the 
      status bar so you know it's saved.
    * Paper Folders | Allow Zombies: Now this setting also affects the Hover Box 
      listing Paper Folder contents when hovering a Paper Folder tab icon (see 
      v21.40.0002 - 2020-12-27 13:52).
    ! Paper Folders | Allow Zombies: Toggling the setting did not refresh the 
      list if it happened to show a Paper Folder. Fixed. Now it reloads the 
      current Paper Folder with or without zombies.
    ! Paper Folders | Allow Zombies: If enabled a Paper Folder listing a drive 
      would show bogus file dates (Modified, Created) for that drive under 
      certain conditions. Fixed.
    ! Paper Folders | Allow Zombies: Empty lines in Paper Folder source files 
      were resolved to app path since 20210321. Fixed. Now they are just 
      skipped.
    ! SC paperfolder: The following line did not load the chicken into the list 
      if "Paper Folders | Explicit Save Only" was ticked:
        paperfolder("chicken.txt", , , "l");
      Fixed.

    ! Configuration | Find and Filter | Filters & Type Ahead Find | Live Filter 
      Box | Persistent live filters: When disabled and you closed and reopened 
      the app on a live-filtered tab, that tab would initially be shown 
      unfiltered as expected. But then when switching away and back to it, it 
      would become live-filtered. Fixed.
    ! Live Filter Box: With larger font sizes there could emerge some graphical 
      artifacts (aka pixel dirt) in the Live Filter Box. Fixed.
    ! Configuration | Colors and Styles | Color Filters: Now all T:prop / B:prop 
      color filters worked in the Tree as expected. Fixed.
      Now, for example, you can use these Color Filter definitions to color 
      folders in the tree that have Labels (which are normally only shown in the 
      list):

      ! Live Filter Box: Since v18.30.0019 - 2017-09-15 12:26 the LFB would not 
        accept a space even as non-first character if the focused file in the list 
        was not selected. Fixed.    
      Reason: Not intuitive. Space key should select focused item in this 
      situation.
    ! Preview Tab | MP3 Info: Since v21.60.0120 - 2021-04-01 20:50, when a genre 
      isn't set in a file but an ID3 tag is present, the genre return value is 
      #255 but it should just return nothing instead. Fixed.

v21.70.0000 - 2021-04-07 21:00
    = NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE. Main developments since last release:
  +++ Seamless Wave Looping. Just select a sample file and hear it spinning in a 
      perfect seamless loop. Audio folks love it.
  +++ Smart Branch View. A new branch view (aka flat view) type shows only files 
      and non-empty folders, i.e. any folders that contain nothing or only empty 
      folders (or, in case of a search, do not contain any files that match the 
      search) are not listed in the branch view. Gives you a much cleaner and 
      more useful view.
  +++ Tree Scroll Position Remembered Per Tab. Optionally, each tab restores the 
      tree position it was in when it was last exited. Many users have waited 
      for this feature, not many file managers have it.
  +++ Color-Code Empty Tree Folders. Finally color filters can be applied in the 
      folder tree in a way that lets you spot all empty folders at a glance.
  +++ Compilation Soundtrack. Compiled to the music of Elise LeGrow.
