    Windows 11 Shell Extension crash
    W
    Copied the Take Command shortcut, changed Target to be wt.exe -p “Take Command” and saved it. Right-clicked to get to properties and Explorer crashed. (wt.exe is the Microsoft Terminal program, which I have installed from the Microsoft Store.) The Target path had changed to: C:\Users{username}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\wt.exe -p “Take Command” Created a new shortcut in a Start Menu folder and set the command line to the same, and it crashed the same. Created a new shortcut and set the command line to mspaint.exe (also a Windows Store app) and Explorer crashed on right-click on the shortcut. It appears PowerArchiver shell extensions doesn’t handle Windows Store apps in shortcuts properly. Perhaps it needs better defensive coding around checking the Target of shortcuts, or just ignoring shortcuts altogether. Running PA 22.00.11 on Windows 11 24H2 Build 26100.6584

    Affected by winrar/.rar vulnerability?

    Was Power Archiver affected by the WinRAR/.rar vulnerability discovered by ESET researchers recently? Not sure if PA is using their libraries for extraction.

    Ultimate zip was made by powerarchiver
    D
    From google search AI Overview Yes, that’s correct. UltimateZip was indeed a product of the same company that developed PowerArchiver, and it was essentially a rebranded version of PowerArchiver. It was discontinued and replaced by PowerArchiver.

    News/Update on PowerArchiver/Connexion in 2024
    TheAndyMacT
    Hi everyone, some good news about PowerArchiver… I’ve managed to get in touch with the original developer of PowerArchiver, Ivan Petrovic, and he has confirmed that the product is not dead or abandoned, in fact it is still very much alive! There has been a hiatus over the past months for various reasons, but that we should expect to see stuff coming through in the coming months (hopefully the next 2 months).

    Zip extraction from windows 11 by windows
    D
    Basically I used powerarchiver context menus to zip up a folder then i used windows 11 own built in zip extractor via the context menu to extract all and this is where it throw up a fault. , I’m using windows 11 . The file that was a problem in the zip that windows 11 could not extract was iva “babe” cotton.jpg I know it has non standard quotes in it. However I had winrar on the computer and tried the exact same method with their context menu compress to zip and then I extracted the file with windows own extract all context menu and it had no problems. This indicates that powerarchiver is doing something different with iva “babe” cotton.jpg compressing to zip. Then I changed iva “babe” cotton.jpg to iva babe cotton.jpg and compressed it with powerarchiver and then tried it with windows 11 extract all and had no problems. It looks like powerarchiver is doing something to that one file that has quotes in it. Please note that powerarchiver extracted both zip files with no problems, only windows built in zip extraction had the fault. Reason I’m letting people know in case they send zip files with special characters in files names to people who do not have powerarchiver. When will a fix be implemented?

    PA2023 22.00.09 trying to delete a directory from a tar file.
    Brian GregoryB
    I had a large .tar file (a backed up WSL) and I want to delete a few directories and their contents from it using PA2023. PA just destroys the whole archive as soon as I try to delete a directory, leaving it in a state where PA2023 won’t even open it any more. I tried several times and also tried compressing it to .tar.xz instead - same result. This should either actually work, or it should say operation not supported and do nothing.

      Silly question and a suggestion.

      I have never used your FTP before.

      I am not having much luck now. And, unless I am misreading the help file, it doesn’t give me the guidance I need,.

      I keep running a PBS with an FTP setting, and it keeps copying the file into the root FTP directory.

      I tried – I thought – every possible combination of language for the destination directory and the default directory.

      Suppose the base directory is called “root”?

      What’s the proper syntax for the subdirectory?

      And do I enter the same info for both destination and default folder?

      I am sure there is a permutation I missed. But after 45 minutes . . .

      The suggestion.

      The password in the FTP window is visible. I would prefer it were it invisible.

        base folder is folder that you enter when you first login to the ftp… what did you try entering there?

        I think we need “browse” button which logins to the ftp and offers you easy to use folder selection :-).

          Unfortunately, that doesn’t work either. Maybe there is something odd about my server.

          Let me explore that.

            tell us what is your root folder and what is your desired folder, i will write you what destination folder entry should be…

            root folder is the one you start with when you login to the ftp.

              Turns out I had to leave the default folder blank.

              Odd.

              But that’s what it took to get to this server.

              Thanks.

              I like your idea for a browse button.

              I also would urge that the password be made invisible on the FTP page.

              And while I have you. (1) I gather the correct PB version number will show up tomorrow. Correct? (2) Neither PAOP nor the Star Drivers (Virtual Disk) show up in my list within PB. Have I done something incorrectly?

                • Correct PB version number?
                • Virtual Drive needs to be downloaded - go to the Burner, click on Virtual Drive and it will download and install. Once they are installed, you will have it on your Patchbeam list.
                • PAOP is not updated via Patchbeam yet. We will add it once new major PAOP version comes out towards end of the year.

                  PAOP – 2.03, which is latest I could find.

                  Sorry. I thought PAOP showed up in 2010 with PB. And I thought you all had talked about PB being updated when PA 2011 appeared.

                  Thanks.

                    Thanks.

                    Yes, but PA2011 has now appeared - the RC has the latest Patchbeam currently available.

                      I would totally also like to request that the FTP password not be in plain text on the FTP tab. It’s stared on the profile page but in plain view when connecting or on the tab. Has this been changed in a newer version coming?
