    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.

      @FiatLux:

      OK , so the renewal price is around $15 per year (“includes everything inside Toolbox”) but it still doesn’t actually say what is in the “ToolBox” . Is that a 1 user license to Bitdefender or a 3 user license to Bitdefender ?

      I think that actual info concerning expected renewal prices and what to expect should be easier accessible……

      Also I got the message that if you Buy the “toolbox” version then the upgrades for the Box itself is free if one have a version of Power Archiver that includes this so as I understand it then the if I upgrade my Power Archivers to “ToolBox” version then I will also have free “life time” upgrades to the “toolbox itself” and that sounds great - especially if the tools keep improving. Personally I would like the “create ISO image” function to be even better so I could import boot image/part from existing discs and I would also like if it were made as much a full fled ISO image editor as possible - then I do not have to buy a set of them too.
      Another thing to do could be to put an advanced compare function into the builtin FTP client so that it for example would only download or upload files that were both of different date (date might change while performing file/disc operations) and different size (than to those compared to) - obviously with the purpose of being able to update/synchronize FTP mirrors in the most advanced way possible…

      You are buying specific number of licenses, if you buy
      1 license of PA 2011 with BD, then you will get 1 license. If you buy 3 licenses, you get 3 licenses.

      It can not get any cheaper than what it is right now.
      If you have some wishes for future versions, do use the wishlist forums - it will get more attention properly there. Thanks!

        Thanks for the answer. I do not think I mentioned any objections against the price…… I were merely talking about the general level of information.
        Also I am not only offered 1 one user BD license with one PowerArchiver but also 3 user user licence with one Power Archiver and it would be nice to know what the renewal price would be for the perspective offers…

        Attention in the “Wishlist” ? - one might get that and then well one might not - in the end things are probably controlled by other things than only user wishes and I just tossed the ball up in the air - if anyone noticed and caught it then fine if not then nothing lost.
        But mind you with the “business Model” introduced with the joint venture with BitDefender and the development of better tools Packs then things could get very attractive for people especially if you guys get more companies onboard and if the users get the choice to select how big an addon package they want…

          If you decide to purchase 3 license, then it is 3 licenses of PA and 3 licenses of BD :-).

            Then number four from top defenitely needs some rework done , because that is presented as if on PA license comes with 3 BD (especially if one have checked out the BitDefender Site and seen that they sell BD with 3 user license !!!) :

                  Hi “SpWolf”

                  How about another “Lifetime” combo offer from you with this BitDefender ???

                      OK !, Thanks ! , that seems OK , but I do not know how you distribute the present offer earnings, also however then there is the matter of the possibility of multiple user licenses as you do offer as upgrade……

                        NEVERMIND and Sorry for the inconvenience !!!

                        I just read the fine print , so your present combo offer is probably as good or better as the above mentioned (NON)“Lifetime” offer……

                        Small print :

                        Lifetime protection key is valid for the computer you first install it on,
                        for the lifetime of the machine, **not exceeding 5 years
                        ***Save up to 70% per year. Calculation for 5 years of PC lifetime.
                        ***Average market value
