    It is not going to replace the folder, it will write to it. You are giving this too much thought. You can do exactly what you want, and it will work properly in explorer mode. Of course, with latest PA 2007 - I am not sure if you are using some old version or not.

    Here are the screenshots! You can see two screenshoots that doesn’t match the options selected. And another one called bug.jpg, that shows the result of choosing the context option ‘Extraer aqui’(‘Extract here’)… :eek: [image: attachment_p_14535_0_compresion.jpg] [image: attachment_p_14535_1_extraction.jpg] [image: attachment_p_14535_2_bug.jpg]

    Vista keeps asking for admin rights

    @MorituriMax: Well I run several other programs and I have them set with admin rights and they don’t bug me each time I do something… oh well. My email is one of them, bugged me every time I started it like PA does now. I set them to run with admin rights (once I figured out I could set that in the properties) and since then nothing. PA is the only program I cannot get to not bug me. if you set it to run with admin rights, UAC will be activated on every startup. Thats how it works. I suggest that you dont set it up to run with admin rights and that way UAC will activate only when changing some setting, which should be very rarely… But complete point of UAC is to activate when you need admin rights.

    @spwolf: but what version of PACL??? The problem is with Powerarchiver, the latest version, the problem described is “Files beginning with a period not included in new archive”. This is a PA forum, not a PACL forum. ;)

    This looks indeed like a bug. I guess Ivan will look at this and fixes it. For some reason it also shows the foldername in lowercase.

    Is it possible to have PA warn the user when the file size may go above 4GB for an executable? That way they will be made aware that there may be an issue for them?

    @bfschuil: When I started from scratch and tried to add only empty folder PA does not even create an archive. Yes, that is exactly what happens with me also (Win XP pro-sp2), in fact PA just exits, no archive created.

    @spwolf: skins should not be used in x64… it is our error, it was supposed to be disabled when it detects x64. so as an workaround, dont use skins in x64 :-). Just glad to hear there was an actual reason for the blue screen. Its actually the first blue screen I ever had. Seen them on other people’s systems, but never my own. Rather scary :p

    @davidsplash: wouldn’t it be an idea to allow both aes zip formats so that people can have two methods of creating this archive. i mean so you can great aes archive at zipping and after it has been originally zipped. that doesnt have anything to do with creation of aes archive after zipping… there is no reason to complicate things for users when it comes to different standards, as all the software supports reading both (good ones like wz, wr, pkzip, etc)…

    @spwolf: zip aes 256bit = any aes 256bit… problem is that people use minimal passwords so it is easily bruteforced and sometimes they select aes 128bit, etc, etc… I just wanted to say that there are a lot of Legal password recovery utilities supporting aes zip… PowerArchiver’s PAE format is not so popular and not everyone will be able to easily crack the password…

    Anything? Works fine for me in all FTP clients, either PASV or Standard. Just not in PowerArchiver. Can you verify specifically the site mentioned above (ftp dot banyanprinting dotcom copy a test file into the /incoming/directory). Thank you, Rusten

    @mwb1100: I know nothing about the zip specification - I just figured that there would be some algorithm ID or signature field in the zip header that would let programs know what they should use to decompress the contained file. And if the signature was unknown to a program, it could indicate that to the user in an error message. If that doesn’t exist or is unreliable, then certainly there’s not much that PA can do about it. But it’s still a little disappointing, especially as the zip format has been extended more than once so you’d think that this issue might have been given some thought by whoever was doing the extending. well problem is that you need to program extensions if you want them to be recognized. and then what to say - for instance, would someone at WinZip write “download latest PowerArchiver to view this file”? It is not an simple question, I just dont like how zip today has nothing to do with .zip just 2 years ago. Imagine an outcry if MS called their new office format .doc so all the people with older software would end up confused on why cant they open it…

    Help with MFC-based plug-in

    I
    One more (at the moment): I managed to determine that I needed to put my plug-in and settings.ini into a BH archive, then rename it as a .ppf in order to get PA to auto-install it. Using the settings.ini from the existing plug-ins as a guide, I was able to get the plug-in set up for a single extension. Is there a way to do multiple extensions from one settings.ini? I’ve tried: [General] File=myPlugIn.wcx Format1=ex1 Format2=ex2 Format3=ex3 But only the first extion is assigned to the plug-in. Any way to pull this off currently? Thanks again.
