Igor Pavlov · Admin Tools
For 7-Zip by Igor Pavlov, patchletter knows 3 support cycles. One of them has already ended and receives no more security updates. The current version of 7-Zip is 26.04. The cycles come from the open endoflife.date project, last reconciled on 22/08/2026.
When does support end for which 7-Zip version?
A cycle is a maintained version line. Where a date is given, support ends on that day — after it the vendor ships no more security updates for that line.

Where does the EOL data for 7-Zip come from?
From the open endoflife.date project, which collects vendors' official support commitments. patchletter reconciles the cycles daily; the 7-Zip data is as of 22/08/2026. In case of doubt the vendor's own lifecycle page applies — patchletter deliberately stores no vendor full texts.
