Many ways of doing it. But D&D onto the icon always seemed the easiest.

Which is why I would also like to be able to move or copy depending on which keys I hold down while D&D (which key combinations matters now) — just as move seems the default in Win 7, but holding down the CTRL key while doing it copies the file.

@spwolf:

I just noticed that I have not seen terry around… we miss his calming influence :-)

That explains why we are all so busy and i keep demanding things.

Come Back Terry!.. :)

Mango is out. Build 7720.

Just waiting for PA to support it.

@Innuendo:

Side note…I’ve gotten, like 40 email notifications of DKJones posting to this thread.

Attempts to unsubscribe from notifications of updates to this thread have been futile. :confused:

strange, did you try under thread tools on the top of the thread?

Can you please post your pbs file here?

I have tried many situations to reproduce this but could not, we simply need more information. I have tried compressing 200,000 files and 80 GB of data and backup worked fine.

Their latest update seems to have indentified some Windows files as false positives, so heads up people who have AVG as your XP will not start anymore :-).

@spwolf:

you can elevate com objects, you cant elevate process… You can check it out on MSDN if you wish.

Cool, than you have to work with elevated COM objects. :)

@Grizzly:

Thanks for the fast help!

Now I saw the button. :o
I didn’t know it was this button because some parts of the text are missing in the German translation. ;)

:-)

We enlarged everything to the maximum especially for the germans….

Disclaimer : I have not tried any of the UHA utilities.

I’ve not found a GUI for uharc 0.6 yet.) I definitely have no idea where the problem might have arised from. It was just a small test only.

My understanding is that an archive compressed with UHA 0.4(beta) cannot be decompressed with UHA(0.6). This is what I meant by backward compatility.

So if PA were to incorporate UHA 0.6 (beta) they would have “bug reports” relating to UHA 0.4(beta). This is not acceptable for a commercial program.

wish plugins only for decompression wouldn’t be a big problem.

But it would be a problem as I mentioned before (0.4 <=>0.6).
PowerArchiver is a commercial product they cannot say “use at your own risk”.

maybe some PA setting for FTP changes, did you send Mili via email your settings? That way he can check with your updated setting to see if it works on his computer… i assume he is testing with ones that work for you :-)

try this program to see if the shell extension has been disabled

Nice Response Spwolf, nice response ;)

does the DVD spin up then? maybe it was left as “last used folder”.

email us at support at conexware dot com to get access to alpha which you can test…

As I said, it is 0.3s-0.5s speed up on very fast computers, and possible a lot of speed up on VERY old systems, but I wonder if it will be noticed on average computer.

Shell is definetly noticable, since there is not slight delay that is there in PA 2010.

On my own computer, 1.45s for PA 2011, 1.8s for PA 2010, with AV running.

well that is great news! I’m glad I asked that question as we now know that the issue is not anything related to your specific system.

We have this issue(mounting ISOs from network drives) reproduced and reported in our bug system already, not really sure when the issue will be taken care of, the developers will take a look and see what is up. Until then, I hope that mounting ISOs from a local drive will not be too much of a hassle.

thanks again for the details!!

doesnt mean anything, it could query the drive first

@spwolf:

nope, we will have to rewrite something once final is released. Annoying issue :)

Feel free to contact me to test any fixes.

Cheers

true but it didn’t not even on uninstalling and reinstalling did it mention this. So this needs to be rectified.

Also even after a restart this happened only after i decided to unistall and restart delete all reg entries of powerarchiver restart and then install restart did it work. what does that say.

@nameless:

Yay indeed. Thank you. I do appreciate it.

I found that the “Compressing Files…” and “Mode:” items are grayed out until I select the “Open archive after creation…” option. For some reason, selecting that option “ungrays” those things. (The same type of thing happens with the other options in the dialog, although in some cases the applicable option has to be checked and then unchecked for the “ungraying” to occur.)

thanks :)

YAY! it’s fixed!

thanks a lot!!!

Problem in original post fixed in .91
Thank you.

That one works fine. :)

@Luxor:

All that matters is I’m happy that it’s now functioning properly and I hope that it stays that way and doesn’t revert back to the compact menu as happened in previous versions after a couple of days use.

What a great way to start 2014! :D

The issue is with the automatic issue of drive letters. I found another piece of software that worked similarly to PAs and also used StarPort drivers. I have updated these drivers via windows device manager without any difference. Anybody have any ideas where the upper and lower filter keys for the PA virtual drive are in the registry or even what the drive is called (Rocket, StarPort, PowerArchiver, SPTD)? Restore points will not help, old ones gone as many installs and uninstalls have written new ones.

@davidsplash:

will the new paf format allow the same actions as zip meaning you can work with files inside a zip file and it will automatically update itself.

I would like to see recovery like they have with rar. A paf repair tool as well and encryption. sfx program for paf.

It would be a poor state of development if they couldnt repair there own code. :) but very valid points, and if PA want users to use their new format then they will need to tick those standard boxes you get with competitors formats, would you not concur?

@Ren:

I’ll bump this older thread… :) This is one of things I would like have too so I read through older topics and found this one…
I think that making another button is crazy but to have ‘…’ for leaving archive will be enough for everyone, won’t be? It’s something I’m missing much.
Spwolf, I know I can use bckspc, I’m doing it so now…:-) But to have ‘…’ for leaving archive when we have it already inside of it would be great and will make work with bigger number of archives more transparent. :)

I tend to side with you. I think just the ‘…’ would be enough.

it could be combination of plugins… PAOP has been used for years now, never got that complaint.

what other plugins do you use (other than ezdetach)? We will try to install them on our Win7 with Office 2007 and see what happens.

Hi!
Made som more tests with PACL 7.00 [May 11 2012] and noticed one small thing.

When running PACOMP without any parameters, no remainder pop up to tell the user that the program is unregistred. However if I run the PACOMP with parameters and a file to create the remainder will pop up.

This is inconsistant behaviour as
PACLREG.exe
PACRYPT.exe
PAENCODE.exe
PAEXT.exe
PAFIX.exe
PASPAN.exe

all have the pop up remainder to register the program when running it without any parameters.

It’s really not a big issue, just noticed that PACOMP don’t behave the same as the other program when running unregistred without any parameters.

Kind Regards
Micke

Done. Thank you so much…

simplified: bug reports and no small talk!

:-)

Disabling video hardware acceleration might give a clue as to whether it’s the video driver or not. In “Display Properties”, click on the “Advanced” button then the “Troubleshoot” tab of the Video Adapter properties page that shows up.

If the problem goes away after ratcheting down the Hardware acceleration and/or turning off write combining then the problem is almost certainly he video drivers.

Rofl! :D

yeah arrows looks much better than +/-

i’m using AVG but i’m planning to try kapersky.

@MDuss said in Power Archiver 20018 and Outlook 2016:

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!
