I've edited the section, now titled "Adware", to present what the bundled installer does in details, with links to official documentation. Same information (more in details, as how does AVG Security

Considering these attempts to soften the adware section are coming from an editor with rather exclusive contributions to PeaZip's article and articles related to file archiving, (all in regard to PeaZip itself, I should add) I think it's safe to assume this account belongs to the software's developer.

Many formats use zip container to embed data, but often adds specialized fields or files (i.e. manifests), that would need to be updated accordingly to format specifications if the file is edited - which is out of the scope for a generic file archiver. Those files are consequently read-only supported

I'm the author of the software and as you can see from the user name in "View history" I routinely update the page with newer releases and other information. I used the "software advertising" term instead of "adware" or "advertising-supported software" as the application does not runs ads by itself
