Add a Model that says that the file is unsupported archive if it can't be opened with the 7z library.

Shouldn't the open archive option be hidden if it's not supported?

Could do but thought it would save time since all file types won't have to be add manually. Also, would help with ones that would be hard to detect like SFX ones. #9730

Are you also referring to support for extracting/compressing using these formats?

Only SFX for compressing, extracting and reading would be fine for the others.
