<p><tt>basic</tt> uses an embedded version of the "7z ANSI-C Decoder" from the LZMA SDK by Igor Pavlov, as-is, except that Unicode support and error messages were improved and that it outputs memory requirements. It only supports .7z archives that are not password-protected.</p>

<p><tt>enhanced/nopassword</tt> internally uses 7zxr.dll from the 7-Zip source code by Igor Pavlov, as-is, except that it was recompiled, code-signed, and renamed to is7zxr.dll.
