They know and it’s fixed now.

Thanks TheAndyMac!

I tried it again. After attempting to delete a directory in the .tar (or .tar.xz) file I get this:
PA del err 1-fs8.png
and then the file is truncated.

Just wrote a reminder to the team to release the Portable version, if it does not appear in the coming update, it will in a future one.

Thanks!

@PA_Fan said in PA 2023 Toolbox - 22.00.09 - Remove archive encryption:

@davidsplash

Thanks. I’ve had a look at the Ashampoo Pro 4 version, but that seems to be minus a number of things that are in the current release of Powerarchiver.

For instance, there isn’t a “Remove Encryption” offering, the archive creation section doesn’t offer several of the options in PA such as Move/Update/Refresh and some other switches, there isn’t a Test Archive feature and so on. Whilst it does the job in parts, the Pro 4 offering is distinctly reduced from the PA version, although the prices seem to be the same.

Speaking of which, we haven’t seen any updates to PA 2023 since 22.00.09, and whilst I’m a firm believer in the “ain’t broke, don’t fix it” philosophy, it would be good for those of us who have bought and used PA for many years to have some small inkling of what PA may be planning.

Going back to the original problem of decryption, I think that it may have been just a temporary glitch (possibly process overloads) on my machine, as it has worked OK, albeit on smaller archives than that which gave problems.
Another interesting thing is that the Help for the Ashampoo version does list the same things as the Help for PA e.g. gridlines, comments etc. etc.

Well this is weird. This “bug” has gone away. I swear this is what was happening when I originally posted the bug report.

However today it’s working perfectly.

It must have been due to something other than PA on my PC, since the only things that have changed are things other than PA.

Any updates going to happen for the bugs reported?

@Mili Thanks.

@Luxor

Thanks! Will take a closer look and try to reproduce

PA 22.00.09

Is this still not fixed since PA2022 or a new bug?

I’m looking forward to deploying PowerArchiver 2023 to my users. Can you tell us when the MSI will be available for download and distribution?

Thanks.

@Brian-Gregory Thank you for the tip.

Hi Eric,
I got the same problem and was solved by PA Team
Try this download link :
https://powerarchiverdl.cachefly.net/2023/pavd2023.exe

I noticed that the version of ZPAQ used is older than the latest released 7.15 https://mattmahoney.net/dc/zpaq.html also there seems to be a newer fork that adds several features https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz

It would be useful to implement this latest version (it also maintains the same syntax and behavior as the latest official release if used the -715 flag) and add when opening a zpaq file a choice of the version of the files to show (e.g. as dummy folders represented the various versions present). Since any previous changes are stored with this format, it is possible to extract a snapshot of a certain date/version.

@Mili bump

So far my testing shows that this seems to all be fixed in the new PA 22.00.09 from your main site.

thanks very much for the file @werve !!

I’ve tested converting the archive and found that the test2 folder that is inside the archive is omitted when converting.
Also, PowerArchiver shows a CRC error when extracting the same archive.

In further testing, tried converting https://mattmahoney.net/dc/silesia.zip and that worked properly.

We have logged the issue in and will take a look to fix it.

Thanks again very much for your help!

Hi @werve

Thanks for this report as well, we have reproduced the Calculate Ram usage button repeatedly calculating when pressing the button and have logged it in for fixing.

In regards to the Advanced Options not being saved when saving profiles, we are aware and are looking to fix it by final release.

Thanks again!

@croq said in How to get a registering code?:

@spwolf - I am having the same problem. I downloaded the PowerArchiver 2023 preview, and whenever I run it, I get a splash screen offering to sell me a license. And I cannot find a license key in Conexware Shop. The latest showing in my list is PowerArchiver 2022. Here’s what I see (license counts in parentheses). Nothing for 2023 versions.

(4) PowerArchiver 2022 Toolbox - Personal - English
(1) PowerArchiver 2022 - Personal - International
(4) PowerArchiver 2022 Pro Legacy English

Hi Nafcom, once official version is out, you will see the link for registering it in the your account. Right now it is available only to people who have PowerArchiver Select.

thanks!

@pirrbe with all formats or with some? This is standard PA installation, not usb? Thanks

@leishirsute2023
Hi, no, even in PA version 2023 , markups are not showed.
CU, Pirrbe

@spwolf OK, but what if you don’t have a registered copy because your Toolbox license has expired? Can you continue to extract PA files? Or is your ability to interact with PA files completely cut off?

@trparky I had the same issue as you did - the latest windows 11 update (March/23) seemed to be the cure - give it a shot.

Is this a known problem? Is there a fix coming? This is a primary reason I buy PA.

I’ve tried both methods I know to extract multiple zips at the same time. 1) Multi Extract feature in the GUI. 2) In Windows File Explorer, select multiple zips, right click, use PA context menu to Extract or Extract To…

Is there a setting I missed? Or maybe it really is processing in parallel, but I can’t detect it? Nothing tells me in the Processes in Task Manager that multiple PA extracts are running. And my CPU, memory and disk resources do not look like a lot of extracts are running.

I’m using PA 2022 Standard version 21.00.18 on Windows 11 Pro version 10.0.22621 Build 22621.

It looks like its resolved in the latest Windows 11 preview update (March/23).
