You have now fixed drag and drop (from Explorer) so that I can choose various profiles. Thank you. Could you now set it up so that the system remembers the last chosen profile? Even thought I have created several ZIP profiles, when I D&D the system always reverts to “ZIP Default,” rather than the last one I used (ZIPx, which includes encryption). Thank you.

And delete, don’t forget delete.

It would be fantastic if there was the ability to add a password when using the batch archive creation, as currently you can only add a password when creating a single archive Thanks

:) I’m positive the team will add this to the list. Things like this are fairly simple to do.

you would have to have space to try all archive formats on the files but i dont care as that would be quicker than individually selectiing each archive format and trying it.

Hi Team, PA has done a fantastic job at making PowerArchiver’s security / encryption features the best possible. However, in my eye’s there are two area’s that would be a welcomed addition. 1. Password Hint - Very Simple Please add the option for Password Hint so user’s can provide a brief reminder to their chosen password. This is common in all well established Encrpytion tools out in the market and PA in my eyes is one of them. 2. Key File - _Brings PA’s Security Up a notch! _ _This method is used in PGP, Steganos, Deslock etc. _A method in which a user can encrypt a file based on another file’s attributes so should the file change or not be found this results in the encrpted file being unable to open. PA could create a file using it’s “.Pae” format that users can select as their “unique” key file and each file is just 100kb and encrypted so avoid further modification. So for work I could have “Brakes.pae”, Home “Home1.pae” I then encrypt a file and instead of using a password i select the relivant key file or make or select any file on the spot. This would be another Great addition to PA’s security features and to ZTE Security as well.

I back this as it’s something i have asked for a few times. In my Advanced Virtual Drive post i suggested something similar to Steganos or Deslock where the user could create an active Virtual drive which could be read/written to and passworded but to also enable Archive’s to be treated as such if setup to do so. So maybe a “Mount Archive” feature for sure!

Ok, now i didn’t remember which archive was not opened by PA so when i found it , i’ll inform you…!!! and thank you so much for the help… :)

@jyvaut75: Hi, Excuse me. I have just downloded the last update 13.01.04. And I did n’t find how to have “testing the integrity of archive” by default. The option exist, but she isn’t checked by default with the help of a compression profile. So, every time I want to make a “zip” I have to not forget to check “testing the integrity of the archive”. Naturally, the testing can be made automatiquely, but only with a pbs programm. Regards, JYV yes, we understand…

Hi Guys, Very minor thing and simple to do. Can you adjust it so when user’s Right Click on PA Starter and select “About” instead of it launching a basic msgbox let it bring up the “About PowerArchiver” dialog. But replace the wording under the line beneith “all rights reserved” with the txt from the msgbox for PA Starter. That way users are used to the same format, and can access “Credits”, “FAQ”, “Register”,“Order” without having to go into PowerArchiver app. Cheers

it would definitely be better ! :) great idea

:-)

Thanks for the tip! DrT

I would like to see the same method for doing rars in pa as with loads of other arcive formats that pa doesnt fully support like arc, uha etc i would like an option to change the rar setting so uha can be used as i use this format all the time and its better than most other formats

Guys, Im going to make this an official request and as i like to think of myself as part of the team I advise this is followed. PowerArchiver now has Virtual Driver and FIPS Regulated Encryption. Lets Create PowerArchiver Virtual Safe, similar to Applications already out such as “Deslock, Steganos, WinMount, Trucrypt, BestCrypt” PowerArchiver users could then right click on any Archive and in the same way with an ISO mount it as an active Drive. Not only can users do this but they can write to those Active Archives as a drive and on closure PA updates that particular archive. Top this off with Encryption as well and users and businesses can create secure drive’s. Lets invest the time and make PA’s Virtual Driver and Encryption Engine take on the market and show them how to really do it!

Feature request a. Span and encrypt at the same time b. Set max. file size per part c. Encrypt to self extracting .exe This all in the context menu. Example: I have a folder with a number of subfolders/files. Total foldersize is 3GB In in the context menu there would be a new item let’s say: “Span and encrypt” 1. I select the folder 2. Select the span and encrypt option It would then present a pop up folder asking: 2.a)either a max. file size, (e.g. 1700mb) or 2.b) a number of parts (e.g. 3) 2.c.) password It would then have to create either a 1700mb+1300mb file (.exe) or 3 folders each 1GB. I think, currently, this all is pretty difficult to achieve in 1 go. =

Shame. I might be able to save some space (I already heavily use the sub-menu). Related question. Will you continue to support PAOP? If so, perhaps I will just go back to it.

@Socrates: So its 2/3 of what I want . . . and 2/3 is good enough for me. Thanks. RC2 coming out anytime soon? ftp thing was “fixed” day after RC1, but we have few other things to wrap up…

is this ever going to come about. Its a feature that would solve most problems with people reporting problems with archive formats that pa isnt handling at the time of there problems.
