    • 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?

      BigMike

      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.

    • 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.

      @spwolf said in Tabs, empty windows and extra closing.:

      But good idea about something there if user is not using/browsing hdd? Maybe MRU archives? Or output from favorite archives window? @Alpha-Testers - i know @Brian-Gregory is using classic with folders, maybe he can give some input?

      How will this work with your proposal here?

      1st tab on opening with no arguments: Files and folders/folder pane shows “My PC” 1st tab on opening with archive: Archive content/folder pane shows archive folder structure opening an archive will open a new tab, folder pane shows archive folder structure opening a new tab by (+) will show MRU list/Favorites?

      On the first guess, I would vote for “Favorites” to fill the empty pane :-)

      Probably, that will make it pretty confusing for the standard user…
      But the pane should never be empty. That is confusing, too.
      Maybe restricting browsing “My PC” to explorer mode and using folder pane in archive mode consequently for Favorites/MRU and for archive folder structures, in case an archive is open, is smarter.

      both folder panel and browsing hdd in archive mode are optional features, default is that there is no folder panel and there is no hdd browsing in archive mode.

      So i dont think it will be too crazy for pro users… and it is useful for sure.

      @darthpingoo said in Pressing tools buttons restarts app:

      @spwolf Are you planning to implements Ribbon in FTP/Backup/Burner tools too?

      We cant do it in main PA GUI, since we cant hide individual ribbon ui components, this is technology limitation of Microsoft Ribbon UI SDK that we use for ribbon.

      So people who bought Standard and Professional licenses, and also our Enterprise users that hide those from their own users (most of our Enterprise users limit this functionality as security measure), would have Backup, Burner and FTP always there which would be very annoying for them.

      edit: if you thought it pabackup.exe, paburner.exe, etc, yeah, it is possible to do it there in the future. We have to have both options since Ribbon UI is only available from Windows Vista & 7, so our Windows XP users still need to have classic interface option.

      @ckit Thanks, I’d forgotten about that setting. Changing that one to Notepad++ does allow me to use Notepad++ as the viewer.

      But why the two possible ways of choosing the viewer?

      Maybe the one in Settings should be the default but the one in the View dialog is completely non functional at present!

      But should that be there at all, going by your original reply to me.

      @spwolf said in Duplicate skin.:

      @luxor shouldnt be there at all since these are toolbar icons.

      yeah, that requires a bit more work, we need to add some new options to that config screen. I will write it up for later releases.

      @the_purspyk said in Configuration bug in relelase version of 2018:

      Seems to be working. Some small observations, during the installation, I dont selelct any of the option ie add items to Start Menu, but PowerArichiver is always added to the Start Menu (this has happened in all versions of the program, and i have mentioned this before). If the program is registerted, would it not be possible to remove the Register Icon from the toolbar. I got the impression initially that my program had not been registered, or grey it out.

      we will write it up, thanks.

      As to the register icon, it is under Options in Modern toolbar. You might want to change the settings, upgrade to other version, etc, thats why it is there… otherwise PA clearly states it is registered in about window and unregistered is removed from the caption.

      @spwolf said in Cannot perform simultaneous archive options:

      To create separate archive of each file selected, there is Batch-Zip option if user clicks on files> PowerArchiver> Batch-Zip. This will start Batch Zip tool which will by default create separate archives (and there are more options too). Thanks!

      I think this is what we need. Thanks for the tip!

      @Brian-Gregory so in one of the latest versions we now clean up old program group, rename it to PowerArchiver and also delete old shortcut to PA 2017. So now when you upgrade from 2017 to 2018 all is nice and proper on Windows 7 and earlier system. Thanks!

      @pirrbe said in PA 2018v32 "BURNER" - save dvd to iso app doesn't detect CD writer...:

      Media used is indeed RW (tried Cd and DVD). I could burn and add files afterwards (RW). The format is UDF. When I insert that DVD using SH soft, no problem. I still can add files on it. When trying out this with PA Burner, it’s going wrong. No active ‘Burn’ button, incorrect counters, etc… The first problem was that the external writer was not recognized by PA. That has been fixed, but still not operational.
      Explorer index :

      I hope this is not an isolated local problem.

      yeah, that looks like Burner is not recognizing your disc as writable one. Did you try checking use last session checkbox?

      I will try with some DVD-RWs I have, I burned some CD’s and DVDs but of normal R kind over the weekend.

      @shahin it does not work (well) in this fast toolbar unfortunately, option was left over from previous versions of PA. It is a trade off between speed and features.

      If there becomes a way to implement it back, we shall.

      @drteeth said in PA 18.00.23 Column configuration:

      Hi,

      Whilst configuring the columns in the archive window, I noticed a couple of annoying things. The first is that the columns have the same colour as the rest of the window. I prefer to have my column headers if not a different colour to be at least delineated by a dark colour. The other thing is that when I deselect a column header so I will not see it, it does not disappear like in other programs I have used, it just closes to nothing. This is annoying as when adjusting column widths, they get in the way and I find myself stumbling across them.

      Cheers

      DrT

      i think it pulls the color from the system… did you check some other skins by any chance? They outline the headers.

      thanks.

      I just tested again and only the Enter key works, Spacebar doesn’t do anything either.
      Usually the extraction to temp folder goes so fast you don’t need to worry about it.

      i know this is how it works and is fast, but we still logged it in for checking out… will update once we do.

      I found it its in the PowerArchiver tools folder under… Burner … it used to be able to be added as a button to toolbar of the PA main interface So that’s what I was looking for

      yes, it is under burner since it is part of the burner functionality. Toolbox is the best version, so it has all the features.

      Please excuse did not know where this should be put or such. This may be a new product for you if interested but , The two things I have always used together with PowerArchiver are this program and a separate cd database program. Or File, CD indexer is more appropriate name.
      All my data disks are imaged / archived /then indexed, from the early Commodore days to the current or at least last 5 years.
      In the past Normal for me was to Buy a new Program and I would image it immediately Index it, then I would install the program.
      What I need to be doing is Downloading or Purchasing the Program and then installing. I was in hopes to even click on an executable or msi and have the PowerArchiver start and ask a couple of questions the normal stuff plus do I want to archive or index this file or CD into a database index, after installing it or would I like to View contents of it etc. If steps were made for me to Archive and also Install a program with the ability to come back and open an indexer in PowerArchiver and select the Archive function to do other things.
      The main thing with me these days are the fact that HardDrives are so roomy now that there is no reason not to have the indexers run in use in your program I think. However finding something on these hard drives is another matter. Also if I wanted to know what was in a particular CD those over in the CD Books I would be able to find it quickly. Finding files is sometimes another story. So if we had a Archiver that truly archives it could easily index in more than one way we could then just ask it to burn archive index place that image that I installed last year and wallah… we have a PowerArchiver that will install, archive the image, place the image and recall the images files etc and have a Archived Data File that contains all the names of the files contained in it. Thanks for giving this opportunity so watch the Alpha and Beta teams. Your company has truly gone to the upper limits in this area.

      Given that there are more users than developers, perhaps the Shift+ method should be used to enable the dialogue box with the default being no overwrite query. Just my opinion. Look forward to a resolution.

      The problem still shows in the 17.01.04. Did the fix just not make this release, or by next major version do you mean 18.0.xx?

      Thans for checking up!

      We:
      a. fixed it so you cant move it to the bottom BUT it requires reset of settings or new install.
      b. made sure upcoming PA 2018 alpha/beta has this working right - preview works fine at the bottom.

      @tfrost said in Incorrect dialogs with text size 125%:

      Actually the problem can be worked around by disabling display scaling in Explorer / Properties / Compatibility. Sorry, I should have tried that earlier. But if that is the solution it would be better if you added this in the manifest.

      so what setting do you have it on now? It works fine on all our systems, we all use at least 125 dpi.

      Is this on PA 2017?

      The Backup application does not have the Action field as the Add window does, where you can select to either Move/Add/Update/Freshen the archive. That option is available in the Add window

      Maybe you have the “Delete original files after backup” selected?

      You can send us the .pbs script to support at conexware dot com and we can check it out to see why the files were/are deleted

      yes latest build
      it sometimes take 5 sec sometime take more than 30sec to cancel
      it has minimize button so user can easily send it to tray then no more accidentally cancel or at least that yes button should cancel not no button.but still in counting file for adding to archive it take long time(pa format) but with zip its ok

      @spwolf

      @pirrbe if you cancel via task manager, then file could stay locked, depending on luck… because you forced quit PA.exe, it can not release the file. I assume there is no powerarc.exe left in task manager? Then restart would “solve” the issue.

      Mili will try reproducing the folder cancel issue.

      thanks!

      @spwolf said in Graphic oddity on toolbar.:

      it might need to work like that…

      Some things you just can’t change.
      If it’s the expected behaviour of toolbar buttons, then that’s the way it has to be.
