Use a modern version of 7zip and use already installed 7zip.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I was trying to find a powershell module to uncompress 7zip archives. I found this in the powershell gallery.
Instead of using the 7z.exe that is already installed on my system at 'C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe'
. The module seems to be hard coded to download and install a 9.20 release of 7zip, which was release almost 10 years ago. There have be a number of security vulnerabilities and bugs in older releases of 7zip.
Describe the solution you'd like
Please consider updating use the 7zip that is installed on the system if one is present in the standard install paths instead of installing a really old version.
