What's new in this version:

New:
- BetterZip is now a universal app that supports the new Apple Silicon based Macs natively
- Added a new Quick Look extension: Finder can use this in the preview sidebar and when in column view where the previous QL generator was not used. Unlike the old-style generator, the new extension is not HTML, but based on standard UI elements which gives it a more natural look and feel. Like the old Quick Look generator, the new Quick Look extension is free to use for all users. You can configure a few default settings through BetterZip’s preferences window. This also works without purchasing a BetterZip license. Enable and disable the extension in System Preferences > Extensions.
- Added a preset option to show a file panel to ask for the destination folder into which to move the archive/originals after a successful operation
- Added a preset option to force a filename encoding when extracting a Windows zip archive

Enhancements:
- The Helpers tab now shows the currently installed version of the rar helper tool
- Updated the built-in unrar component and most external helper tools to the latest versions
- Added scripting support for the “move archive/originals” preset options
- The password manager's auto-locking options are now shown even while the password manager is locked. Of course, you still need to unlock the vault before you can change them. Similarly, the preset configuration indicates whether a password is set in a preset while locked.

Fixed:
- The ⌘R keyboard shortcut (extract selected) didn’t work
- Prevent users from creating folders with invalid names
- Filenames with semicolons could confuse the BetterZip Finder Extension
- Fixed a crasher that could occur when opening zip files under certain conditions
- For solid 7z files the compressed size and index field wouldn’t be displayed
- Unlocking the password manager from the password panel during compression forgot to enable the OK button
- When one file was selected and a different file was extracted with a drag-and-drop operation, the progress bar would display the selected file’s size instead of the dragged one’s.
- When adding files in Direct Mode to a rar archive, an access denied error would be displayed
- Modifying files in a password protected rar file would display an error message
- Due to new restrictions in macOS, DMG disk image files are no longer supported in the Quick Look preview
