What's new in this version:

New Features:
- The new Close File command (choose File > Close File from the menu or press ⌃⌘W on the keyboard) will close the current file, but leave the window open and return to the initial state
- Non-archive files can now be previewed in BetterZip when selected in the built-in file browser (the left sidebar)

Enhanced:
- The archive's macOS quarantine flag will not only be preserved for extracted executable files, but also for extracted (recursive) archives
- The Quick Look preview now automatically sorts by file name
- When clicking in the background of the file list and dragging the mouse up or down, BetterZip will now select files like in the Finder

Fixed:
- Sequential archives (.001, ...) didn't open correctly in some cases
- Archives with a digit in the first place of the filename extension couldn't be opened, if they were not multi-volume archives (e.g., archive.3mf)
- Moving archives to the trash after extraction now works reliably
- When using a save preset, and selecting the option “Don’t include the single root folder in the archive”, BetterZip wouldn't save the archive to a folder set in the preset, but always next to the original
- The preset option "Move after successful extraction" would only move the numbered parts .z01, .z02, ... of WinZip-style multi-volume zip archives while leaving the last .zip named part behind
- If BetterZip is set to open directly to DropBar, closing the DropBar did not result in BetterZip quitting
- Extracting from an opened subfolder in a Finder list view window to a place through the Finder extension extracts to a different folder
- Automator actions for extracting or compressing files couldn't be configured, if there were multiple presets with the exact same name
