encryption, aes, passwords, password-hashing

the issue is fixed, but it’s clear that 7zip shouldn’t be the main tool for encryption(it’s just not made for that purpose). Other unfound trivial/nontrivial suboptimal practices may still exist. age, picocrypt are much better options. I personally use peazip as my file explorer
