I can confirm these 2 behaviours, which Vladimir Garistov has described perfectly.

I am using Gear 21.08.3, Plasma 5.23.3, Frameworks 5.88.0, Qt 5.15.2.

There have been multiple bug reports raised and "fixed" and "closed" around doing 7-zip compression from Dolphin context menu. It worked just fine until Gear 21.08.2.

I cannot understand why it is taking so many incremental bug fixes to restore behaviour which existed in Gear 21.08.1.

Surely it would require less effort to look into the cause of that regression?
