Z-Manager CLI 1.0.2 Release Notes
Z-Manager CLI 1.0.2 is a packaging-focused patch release for Windows portable
installation compatibility.
Highlights
- Statically links the Windows MSVC C/C++ runtime into the Windows release
binaries. - Removes the need for users and package validators to install a separate
Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable before runningzm.exe. - Keeps the Windows ZIP asset names unchanged for WinGet and direct download
users. - Includes no intended archive format behavior changes.

Known Backend Limits
- Creation is intentionally limited to ZIP, TAR.ZST, and 7z.
- Editing an existing archive in place is not supported. Extract, modify, and
create a new archive instead. - RAR creation is not supported. RAR extraction uses the bundled extraction-only
backend for passworded and multipart RAR coverage. - Raw single-file streams extract to one output file; they are not archive
containers. --to-stdoutis for selected regular file data, not directories, links, or
special entries.- Linux and macOS release archives may depend on platform runtime libraries
listed in the correspondingzm-<target>.deps.txtreport. - Windows release archives depend on Windows system DLLs only; the MSVC runtime
is statically linked intozm.exe.
Package Channels
- Homebrew metadata is generated from release checksums and should be copied to
frankmanzhu/homebrew-zmanager. - WinGet metadata is generated from release checksums and should be validated
withwinget validatebefore submission. - Linux distribution is direct tarball or
.debinstallation with checksum
verification.
