These include the following compression methods:Ĭompression: The default compression method for a 7Z file is LZMA which stands for the Lempel–Ziv–Markov chain algorithm. It supports several compression algorithms and is an open standard with an open modular architecture, allowing the addition of new compression algorithms. 7Z is a file extension for a 7-Zip compressed file. 7Z files mostly belong to 7-Zip by Igor Pavlov.
