@davidsplash:

if you have a spanned zip archive ending in a letter like e.g tersta and then next one terstb the problem sayes there is an error and locks up so you have to crash powerarchiver.
…
you reproduce it using my steps in my first post.

Well, I don’t have any spanned archives using that naming method.
If I assume they are spanned zips, how are they named
a) tersta.zip; terstb.zip etc
b) tersta.001; terstb.002 etc
b) tersta.zip.001; terstb.zip.002 etc

or what?
@davidsplash:

… in teh archives are more spanned zips which need to be extracted before i can extract them, this time the spanned zips insode the archives have 001 …

Actually, are you sure the ‘a’, ‘b’ … files are spanned zips and not just split files (using e.g. HJSPLIT or similar)?

[davidsplash]

well not sure if they are split files but split files ca made with HJSPLIT can not be opened by pa so i assume they are not. iF they are how comes powerarchiver lists them as archives when other compression programs don’t

nema grešaka:cool:

[davidsplash]

The same results happened as my spanned archive posting the zip file in question is 134mb and when i try to extract it i get an yun specified error message

so i ran a test on the zip file from within powerarchiver and obtained these results

Done. – 25/01/2009 14:34
There were no errors in the archive: TEST.zip

The file in the archive are a setup, txt file, windows.link file

i’m using windows 2000

they can be extracted only from the main powerarchiver windows indicating a shell extension bug

[spwolf]

i already wrote what the solution is… you need to reinstall PA and reboot your computer.

none of your shell extensions will work until you do that.

[davidsplash]

seems to be fixed for shell extensions on zip archives using extract to here option. though i stress too many people have had this fault. So is there going to be safe guards against this happening in the future?

[spwolf]

:-)

[spwolf]

safeguard would be that when it tells you to restart, it means it.

[davidsplash]

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.
