Pack200 modifies the contents of the Java class files in the JAR archive undergoing compression. Transformations to the class files include merging constant pools and removing duplicated attributes. [8] The format is not lossless; it is possible for a JAR file after unpacking to not be identical to how it was before packing. [9]
A JAR ("Java archive") file is a package file format typically used to aggregate many Java class files and associated metadata and resources (text, images, etc.) into one file for distribution. [4] JAR files are archive files that include a Java-specific manifest file. They are built on the ZIP format and typically have a .jar file extension. [5]
A suggested protection against this is to open it with an archive manager instead of executing it (losing the advantage of self-extraction); the archive manager will either report the file as not an archive or will show the underlying metadata of the executable file - a strong indication that the file is not actually a self-extracting archive.
A file which was "squeezed" had the middle initial of the name changed to "Q", so that a squeezed text file would end with .TQT, a squeezed executable would end with .CQM or .EQE. Typically used with .LBR archives, either by storing the squeezed files in the archive, or by storing the files decompressed and then compressing the archive, which ...
The file manager has a toolbar with options to create an archive, extract an archive, test an archive to detect errors, copy, move, and delete files, and open a file properties menu exclusive to 7-Zip. The file manager, by default, displays hidden files because it does not follow Windows Explorer's policies.

UPX uses a data compression algorithm called UCL, [5] which is an open-source implementation of portions of the proprietary NRV (Not Really Vanished) [6] algorithm. [2]UCL has been designed to be simple enough that a decompressor can be implemented in just a few hundred bytes of code.
Microsoft compressed file in Quantum format, used prior to Windows XP. File can be decompressed using Extract.exe or Expand.exe distributed with earlier versions of Windows. After compression, the last character of the original filename extension is replaced with an underscore, e.g. ‘Setup.exe’ becomes ‘Setup.ex_’. 46 4C 49 46: FLIF: 0 flif
