Bugs I found and wanted to share with the team.

Hi I recently bought PowerArchiver and found some bugs and issues that I hit testing some of the features out.
-
If you are doing a backup and on the compression options screen its default is compression format is PA with no option to change disk spanning. If you change to 7-zip you can change disk spanning. If you change the disk spanning then move back to PA format the field for disk spanning disables but the option stays set to what you changed it to. When you do a backup it will use PA with files spanning but PowerArchiver says that its not a valid format when you open it. If PA can’t really do file spanning then this screen is allowing it.

I have attached an image where the progress bar is in the middle of the CD/DVD/BD Tools screen.

I have a 7-Zip file I created using the backup tools doing an increment backup. It opens and extracts just fine but if you using the Test option PowerArchiver locks up. Link to file: Backup-2021-02-05-20-35-36 TEST LOCKUP.7z

On any Zip/PA/7-Zip process the pause and cancel buttons do not work. You have to hard kill the entire application to get out.

For the 4th Point, they fixed it in the current version.
However agree with you, the process is visually closed, but the resource utilization does not stop, and we have to manually terminate process from Task Man.

@godlydevils For me the buttons do nothing and the process continues.

Thansk for the details @bradnagel
We have logged these in for fixing.Which format archive are you working with when the pause/cancel buttons do not work?
Are you compressing or extracting?
