    • PA2021: Cannot close ZIP Comment

      BigMike

      Hi,

      I can’t close ZIP archive comments. Neither in archive nor in explorer view the “x button” works. I’m testing with PA 20.00.73 (x64 and x86)

    • Powerarchiver 2021 incorrectly extract tar.xz file

      Configuration:
      Powerarchiver 2021 20.00.73

      When extracting gcc-arm-10.2-2020.11-mingw-w64-i686-arm-none-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz , Powerarchiver wrongly thinks some .exe files have a length of zero:

    • Is PowerArchiver 2021 stable?

      Hi,

      I just saw, that on the Website, PowerArchiver 2021 20.00.73 is advertised as latest version. (Actually, the downloaded version says, it’s 20.00.70 in the about dialog)
      But it still comes with the “red icon set” for preview versions and has some known unfixed bugs, as I read here.

      Is it sufficiently stable to be used on production systems?

    • Bugs I found and wanted to share with the team.

      B

      Hi I recently bought PowerArchiver and found some bugs and issues that I hit testing some of the features out.

      If you are doing a backup and on the compression options screen its default is compression format is PA with no option to change disk spanning. If you change to 7-zip you can change disk spanning. If you change the disk spanning then move back to PA format the field for disk spanning disables but the option stays set to what you changed it to. When you do a backup it will use PA with files spanning but PowerArchiver says that its not a valid format when you open it. If PA can’t really do file spanning then this screen is allowing it.

      I have attached an image where the progress bar is in the middle of the CD/DVD/BD Tools screen.

      alt text

      I have a 7-Zip file I created using the backup tools doing an increment backup. It opens and extracts just fine but if you using the Test option PowerArchiver locks up. Link to file: Backup-2021-02-05-20-35-36 TEST LOCKUP.7z

      On any Zip/PA/7-Zip process the pause and cancel buttons do not work. You have to hard kill the entire application to get out.

    • Does PA supports Intel's zlib?

      G

      There would be many of us with Intel Processors.

      and they have their own optimized zlib algorithm, which can result in more efficiency if used combined with their hardware processor.

      Reference:
      https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/zlib-compression-whitepaper-copy.pdf

      Can we get the same Functionality Under Hardware Acceleration Feature?

      Zlib is not the only feature that intel has included with their processor, there’s many, which if combined can result in efficient and better compression ratios.

    • PA and conflict with Antivirus

      G

      I’m using the Kaspersky Total Security.

      I have configured PA as exclusion as followed:

      PA Exclusion.png

      and also is set us trusted application

      PA Trusted Application.png

      Scenario:

      My Antivirus likes to scan for everything, and it’s safeguarding behavior is to prevent the access to the file until the file is properly scanned for.

      The issue:

      PA when losses the access to file, it is stuck, consumes Resources, and never completes the process or throws any error

      Recommendation:
      PAStarter should also work as PAMonitor:
      There should be a monitoring process, at least if I’m using queuing feature, that should check for never ending compression processes and terminate them so the queue can be little bit automated.

      Also,
      There should be multiple attempts at retrying if PA loses access to or is denied, instead of having to see process was stuck for longer duration.

      Or, better, save the parameters I used for keeping the files in compression, and automatically restart the whole compression process after termination the same, of same folders and files set, this should happen in case if compression was stuck.

      Tech Support
    • Using the Queue Feature affects Compression Ratio negatively

      G

      If you use Queue Feature, you are not saving on space, you are just squeezing less.

      Here’s explaination:

      https://youtu.be/XcxG2wxyink

      I did test the same on multiple files, and of different types.

      It does have large difference for each large file you are trying to squeeze.

      Folders with multiple files, just have no benefits if you use Queue Feature

    • Problems with Color-scheme after upgrade to build 73

      Hello!
      I am using the portable version of PA2021. After switching from build 58 to 73 I have problems with the color-scheme:
      While 58 behaves like expected and showed everything in light or dark colors according to the settings, 73 always shows the lower part of the window in dark colors, no matter whether I select automatic, light or dark.
      This happens on a clean installation of 73 as well as on an update from build 58. I have attached two images generated on the same machine at the same time with the same settings. The upper shows build 73, the lower 58. Is it a bug or some changed setting I miss?

    • PowerArchiver shell extensions possibly crashing windows explorer.exe

      U

      I’ve been dealing with an intermittent explorer.exe crash for 5-6 years now. It happens randomly and will usually occur multiple times within a single session of an hour or two on my machine when manipulating files through Windows Explorer. explorer.exe is the only thing that ever crashes, so it’s not hardware IMO. I’ve done all hardware diagnostics and RAM is good. I’ve even swapped out motherboards with different brand and even the exact same one and it still crashes. sfc /scannow indicates system files are fine. I’ve done multiple reinstalls of the OS with no positive results. This crashing has happened on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10 64-bit. It seemed to get more frequent with Windows 10 after upgrading last year. I’ve also been using PowerArchiver throughout that time period (upgrading over time with new releases). I recently disabled all non-Microsoft extensions via ShellExView and saw no crashes for about 10 days, which is really unusual. I turned back them all back on after 10 days and saw another explorer.exe crash within the hour. So I disabled all 32-bit extensions and saw another crash. Following that I disabled all the PowerArchiver shell extensions and haven’t seen a crash after a day of heavy usage manipulating files within Windows Explorer, which doesn’t happen for me. The crash dumps I’ve captured don’t seem to indicate PowerArchiver is involved but I have a hunch it has something do with PowerArchiver shell extensions. The system even feels smoother with the PA extensions disabled. Windows 10 reliability monitor always has the same type of problem:

      Description Faulting Application Path: C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe Problem signature Problem Event Name: BEX64 Application Name: explorer.exe Application Version: 10.0.17134.165 Application Timestamp: 4031a9f8 Fault Module Name: StackHash_e78e Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 00000000 Exception Offset: PCH_8D_FROM_ntdll+0x000000000009AA54 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Data: 0000000000000008 OS Version: 10.0.17134.2.0.0.256.48 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: e78e Additional Information 2: e78e327659b46c9a0c6916396b253cbf Additional Information 3: cebf Additional Information 4: cebf952c5db535ae7880488aafce55d9 Extra information about the problem Bucket ID: 1a57e4e784fbc735c231c68bd88581a9 (1311047270476906921)

      I know this is a very nebulous explanation but is there any way to link this up to PA shell extensions as the cause? I can provide the crash dumps and additional information if necessary.

      Thanks BigMike,

      I hate to say it , VM has a wide range of documentated cases like these the one’s i know of doing what i suggested helps, but not in all cases.

      Then your talking more time to investigate, which is when the question is raised why not do a rebuild seeing that this isnt an issue being replicated on other VM’s.

      But, it’s not a PowerArchiver problem as i’ve seen this across many other platforms and dll’s.

      Sorry i couldnt help further buddy, if you do manage to figuire it out please share we would love to hear from you again.

      Actually I think deleteing the file from the archive before adding the updated version again may not be working quite right either. The resulting .pa file seems to get larger!

      For now I will just delete the whole .pa archive and re-create it. It’s probably quicker in many cases too.

      @spwolf I just tested it

      Extracted it 4 more depths inside folders (7 folders in total) than the last try, which was 3 folders in depth. Same settings

      The program was not executed. It seems that the fix has worked :D

      Thank you all for your involvement in fixing this bug!

      @GiovanninettiR I assume this was simply PA format compressing pst file really well? I think we have even some special settings for PST and quite large dictionary which leads to great compression. Thanks!

      @JoeS said in Searching for the specific Regkeys needed to default new installations in Modern Windows 10 not dark view:

      When I push PowerArchiver 2019.00.50 by MSI, new installations come up dark. I know that I can put the registry keys I need to control user settings in firstrun.reg, but I haven’t been able to isolate the ones that I want. Specifically, I don’t want to open up in Dark Mode.

      So far I have tried “MySkinDir”=“C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\SKINS\Light Solitude\”

      Thanks

      It is best to wait for next build where windows ribbon will be default… we will also have a new gui tool for commonly used settings out very soon. Thanks!

      @spwolf I am afraid that I will not be able to correctly understand the question, because I speak English badly. I will try to summarize my last post. I switched to using the Classic Simple (fastest) skin and now I do not have such a problem. But if I switch to the Light Solitude skin, then I begin to experience this problem. All of the above is also true for version 19.00.50.

      P.S. I apologize. After I gave the answer, I realized that the message was not to me. Now I understand everything.

      I think that pixelated icon has been around a long time if memory serves.

      yeah, ZIP SFX has been around forever… we were rewriting it last year but the main problem we had is that today, new SFX’s are considered in many cases as false positives. So no matter how hard we tried, we had at least >10 false positive warnings for new SFX.

      I’m trying running with the Indexing Service disabled on both my PCs now because it’s useless and just sticks on certain files which there is no easy way to identify.

      I don’t think I’m going to miss it because I already tend to use WHERE /r from the command line to find files since it usually gets results much quicker anyway.

      This is the return of a previous issue. With an archive open and the file list longer than the window display, typing the first letter of the file in the list to jump to the first entry does not work. It will work if a file name starting with that letter is visible in the list window, but not otherwise.

      I am using version 19.00.47 64 bit.

      This happens when I log in as a Standard User without administrator rights and run the PowerArchiver as an administrator.
      If I log in as an admin, there is no such problem. If I log in as a non admin and run the archiver as a standard user account without administrator rights, then this problem also does not exist.

      Hello? Are there any intelligent lifeforms out there?

      Maybe… Enable PA 2019 Queue starts Starter when you check it (it asks for it)… but it will not start Starter at computer restart unless you check Start… box.
      Reason for this is for people not have to look for starter in Program Files folder when they want to see what is it.

      I just saw, that there would be a matching string already:

      So using this resource string would result in an already translated replacement.

      Hi @ValhallaWarrior

      Which version of PowerArchiver are you using?
      Also, does it happen with all mounted ISO files or a certain one?

      Tested the latest 2019 version and unmounting worked, so it could be something specific.
      Let us know.

      If I set ‘quartz violet’ skin, PA title bars get real big, requesters also inherit these title bars. They were of normal size in the previous version.

      quartz violet.png

      ‘Classic’ skin title bars are of common system size.

      You cannot drag and drop folders into Archive Converter window when you start PowerArchiver with Admin rights.

      If you start PowerArchiver without Admin rights, you can drop and drop folders into the Archive Converter window correctly.

      Hi there.
      Back in PA2016, I used to be able to select a zip/rar/etc. file in Windows Explorer and I’d see the archive contents in the Windows 10 preview pane. However no version since this has had this feature. Is this a big, or something that was intentionally removed, or am I missing a setting to enable it somewhere?
      Thanks.

      It has returned with PA 2019 Preview… do you have access to it?

      @nsd3 said in UAC elevation required whenever I start PowerArchiver 2019 toolbox:

      I’ve just upgraded to the Toolbox version of PowerArchiver, and following the email invitation, downloaded and installed PowerArchiver 2019.00.26.

      UAC elevation kicks in whenever I start the application. Anyway to prevent this happening, it’s really annoying.

      Uncheck all users option from the warning window and click ok… does it happen again? Do you have any other software for compression installed? Let us try to fix the root of the problem in next build.

      thanks!

      @The_PurSpyk said in Context Menu Icons (right click in File Explorer), general comments:

      Hi

      I know this was an issue in the beta version of 2018, and it seems to be the same in 2019, the right click menu icons in File Explorer are red, the uninstall icon ion Control Panel is also red?

      When using the new Windows 10 theme, there is a lot of inconsistency between the different modes, in the burners, you have large colourful icons on top of the scree, in ftp mode you have very small icons, seems a bit of a mess at the moment.

      If you select Modern Toolbar, and have the dark theme on in Windows 10, the toolbar has a black background while the rest of the application is white, the 2018 version never had this issue.

      red is on purpose for beta versions being improved, but we also did some of it on purpose… in any case, we finished all the changes for next build, it looks tight IMHO. we can implement new windows dark skin for ribbon ui only for the ribbon part, not for the rest of the app as we cant skin only small part of the application while top ribbon is official windows ribbon ui and cant be skinned. You can change this option manually in under Skins> Modern Toolbar> Auto, Dark, Light.

      thanks!

      Thanks @spwolf , that was indeed the problem! Nothing was selected under “Font size” so I guess it just used 6 by default. Anyway, set to the desired size and all is good again!

      Hi Spywolf.

      When you are in the add-ins menu from the option and you want to open the configuration from an other addin like for example “Microsoft-Exchange-Add-In” do you get then the windows which tells you that this add-in have no configuration settings or do you get the window from powerarchiver although you have selected for example the “Microsoft-Exchange-Add-In” Add-in?

      MfG
      MDuss

      In the future update, we will remove separate add-in menu in options, so you will be able to configure it via toolbar only, as Microsoft wants. That way there is no confusion.

      Let us know if you notice anything else, thank you!

      Hi, I’m using PowerArchiver 2019 on a 27" 4k display scaled at 200% in Windows 10, and there’s a minor issue where the icons in the folder tree are small: https://imgur.com/a/G29i1HZ

      The icons in the archive content view appear to be fine.

      we can certainly scale treeview icons better… thanks for the report.

      Hi @Chris-Steinbeck-Bell

      There definitely isn’t a problem with your license, it just seems that it does not have the Advanced Codec Pack(.PA format) included. We did have a couple of earlier 2018 versions where the .PA format was unlocked while it was not supposed to and that was a bug. Upon solving the bug, it worked as intended, for PowerArchiver users who have the advanced codec pack.
      You may renew your license through your account at www.conexware.com/shop, which will include the .Pa format as well.

      @ianac said in Error during extraction from self-extracting archive (v18.01.04 - 64bit):

      Apologies for replying to my own post - hope i havent broke a forum rule.

      It seems there might be an issue with that self-extracting file linked to in my original post because i’ve just created a temporary Win10 VM to run it in and the self-extracting file also generates zero length files too.

      However i still think there is an issue with PA because an updated source archive was posted a few weeks later and can be found in this link… https://files.gpg4win.org/gpg4win-src-3.1.5-1.exe

      Running that self-extracting file does not create any zero length files but when it is opened in PA they are still shown as being zero length and the same error occurs when extracting them.

      0_1546200930237_ZeroLengthFiles-1.PNG

      seems like NSIS installer latest release changed something and our extractor does not work anymore (properly)? Will check, thanks for the update.

      Hi,

      I’ve just noticed, that the localization of the shell extension doesn’t work in PowerArchiver.

      My OS is Windows 10 x64 1803.
      If I right click in the standard explorer the PowerArchiver shell extension is localized.
      If I right click in the file listing insider PowerArchiver, the shell extension is English.

      Just curious why disabled with 7z format but not others? Basically the process is the same no matter the format. Copy files into the new archive, verify validity, and then delete (wipe) the original files.

      we have better access with other engines than with 7z/pa…

      Interesting… well hopefully that can be resolved at some point.

      I found a new bug today when it is asking to save the password for encrypted archives. You can either hit Yes to save it or No to not only NOT save it but Never to ask again about saving it. The other option cancel should work where like it does on other apps. It cancels that current prompt but it may ask again later. Instead what cancel does it cancel the whole archiving process.

      Thanks for letting us know, we will check it out for next build.

      Brian,

      “In a shop”? How quaint :slightly_smiling_face: .

      It is difficult to buy a regular-sized mouse without them these days. Just look on Amazon.

      It also irks me when there is a functionality in windows that I use, that many programs implement and a few do not :frowning_face: .

      IMHO, not an unreasonable request.

      @spwolf said in Slow drawing of main window.:

      I will check if we can improve this. I dont think it was any different in previous builds.

      In previous builds I’ve never seen the scroll bar out of position like it is in this build.
      If it did occur it was obviously too fast for my old eyes to pick up on it. ;)

      might depend on number of files in the folder, but i went back to .37 and if folders bar + skins + hdd browse is on, scroll bar of the folders bar will be seen changing size at startup.

      I wrote it in… thanks!

      @drteeth said in PA 18.00.53 tab opening:

      Hi spwolf,

      No worries about the late reply.

      As for your problem with many tabs, just have a “close all” option.

      What about my request to be able to use a mouse’s forward and back buttins to navigate the archive? I always press my back button first by instinct and only then realise that I have to use the cursor and my left mouse button.

      I look forward to the tab enhancements.

      Cheers
