XnView Software

Does this version finally add proper support for viewing zips, rars, cbrs, and cbzs as folders with proper navigation?

I don't suppose the new version finally addresses this missing functionality?

Actually to be precise, I'm still stuck on a old version of ACDSee since it's gotten so bloated. I would really like to move to XnView, if it would just get full archive support.

Continuing to wait.

I have XnView installed alongside ACDSEE and I use it for everything else because it is just better. But I still can't get rid of ACDSEE without this feature integrated into XnView.
