PeaZip Portable does not need to be installed, so it does not modify the host system, it is just a .zip file containing the software.
It can be extracted to the desired folder and used; a writeable path (i.e. the desktop, or documents folder, or a removable device as an USB drive) is recommended, in order to let the application update the configuration and the persistent randomness collector, as in the portable version all files are contained inside the directory of the application. The application needs at least to write to disk the configuration the first time it runs so please check if the selected path is writable and in case of problems try running the application as administrator to have needed UAC permissions.
To integrate PeaZip Portable with the system (context menu, SendTo menu, file associations), or use it in scripts please refer to the software documentation (F1).

PeaZip is available in many different languages, click Options > Localization to modify language of the GUI. If you are willing to contribute a translation please check information in peazip-x.y.about_translations.zip file to know how to contribute.

Over networks, this application can be made available to multiple users, either with a shared configuration or with separate configuration for each user, see "Settings" and "Customization and scripting" in the help file (F1), that also contain useful hints for enhancing PeaZip's system integration and use of PeaZip in scripts.
PeaZip is built to be fully modular, you can freely replace backend executables in PeaZip/res directory with updated ones (as long as they support the same syntax) or with 64 bit counterpart if available.
If the host system cannot or should not be modified it is recommended to use PeaZip Portable, that runs without installation and can be simply extracted in any path, even on the network or on removable devices as USB memories.

During install, PeaZip creates entries in SendTo menu that can be simply copied to one user to another as needed, they are located in C:\Documents and Settings\(username)\SendTo (Windows XP) or C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo (Vista/7), assuming C as system's disk.
