I’m sorry, this was a confused reply. I saw this email first and clicked the link in the email and answered thinking it was the other thread – the one about using %temp% as the extract folder

@JRM: Im just trying your awesome program for the first time but im having a but of a frustrating problem, I like to queue files for extracting/compressing and i would like to keep the queue window open on top and move it to the side or the corner but it just stays in the center of the screen which is really frustrating. Any idea on how i can remove the screen to a different area? Thanks! you can not :). Pastarter.exe that handles queues has been built in assembler like language for minimum memory usage, hence some gui options are minimal as well. if you write an wish in wishlist forums, who knows what might happen :)

Nonono, it would work /exactly/ as the current “Compress to <format>” options work, except you would see them in the context menu on existing archives. They would use the last selected settings for the specified format automatically.</format>

Hopefully if this is implemented it will include deleting as well as adding files within solid archives. That would be great :)

another idea stemming from this would be to have pa own version of rar protection on all marchives it can create if you wnat it to. something like par format would be an idea simple easy to impliment and well worth it.

Gets my vote. The ability to do that with audio CD’s would be great too then I wouldn’t need to have another burning utility wasting space on my HD.

i asked for this before and know its a program thing not a plugin thing. I would like to beable to display the version number of the plugin i have in powerarchiver. If you take a program like irfanview, that uses plugins it can do this feature so why cant powerarchiver.

I would like to be beable to have a feature that allows the archive to be locked i.e non changable but you can still extract files from the archive. Would it be possible to say force a zip not to be changable but allow people to use its contence Or digitally sign an archive to prove its from the correct source

@Sir: I suppose if a competitor has this as a feature then it would only be so wise to implement it. :) And to me it sounds a good idea to have as i ofton download Torrent files that have split Rar files and I give up when PA tells me its broken! because I can’t be bothered to install yet ANOTHER application to do one thing that PA doesnt. Yes this is a very good idea!

@gate1975mlm: And don’t forget “Time Remaining” :) Please add the Time remaining too :)

@alextorex: using special minimize button just for the sake of having option to minimize to tray seems overkill to me. The window without standard minimize icon seems weird. Please use a a standard window with normal minimize and you can add a check box for minimize to tray. Also add in options default setting for the check-box. +1

Same here I also use HJSplit very often and it would be great if some like HJSplit was added to PowerArchiver so I can then uninstall HJSplit :)

Up front: I usually donot work with PA in ‘Explorer-mode’, I normally use the context menu-items because I think they are faster. PA’s Explorer opens up another Explorer requiring me to select (source/destination) files, folders… First: Set view to: View -> Display style -> Explorer with Folders. Scenario: 1. ZIP: In the right window panel select one or more files, click on ADD + OK - done! (by default, the zip is nicely placed in the same folder) 2. Encrypt: In the right window panel select a file, click on Encrypt … A new explorer window is opened… I have to browse to the folder and select the file. Let’s assume it is a file in some sub\sub\sub\sub-folder. When browsing you need to remember that folder… Suggestion: same as 1 3. SFX: same suggestion as with Encrypt 4. Folders: In the left window panel: select a Folder. Add/Encrypt/SFX the entire folder By default the foldername (same as “ADD” to zip) By default in the folder where the subfolder is located. –

i would like to have a recovery system like what rar can do on rar files for pa as it would greatly help

i would like to have the option to select any self extracting sioftware for use with pa like some other software we know can

I understand. I would not have been horrible though…honest. DrT

Its out little baby!! Spending months caring and developing it till one day it Pops out and brings joy to the world… Then it gets older and starts to be uncompatible so you uninstall and upgrade to something newer. :D

for packing sure in pa 2011, not sure yet about optimized

Having .sit installed in power archiver is a great thing but if there are still issues about the license, I wish that it is possible in the near future.

true but last time i did i was told off for doing so so thought it better to have the information.
