    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.

      @NTFS:

      I can confirm this issue.

      1. Create archive (for example, “arch.zip”)
      2. Right-click on this archive-> PA->e-mail it!
      3. ”…just a window appears and it is minimized (it’s really fast) and that’s all…”

      I use The Bat! v3.0

      !!! This doesn’t happen when e-mail client is running in the background (trey or minimized)

      Hope this will help…

      I cannot confirm this. I’m using The Bat! v3.0.2.10 with PA v9.11.01 and Email It starts The Bat! with the file attached to a new message.

        can everyone list all the open files on there computer, maybe its something conflicting with the email client . It orks for me i wuld suggest changing to thunerbird email client and then checking this feature as outlook express is bugggy and can cause this problem , which can affect the bat as well as several other eamil programs.

        Have you tried this featuire in safe mode it might be a conflicting driver. I know this feature is faulty in ultimatezip so if your’ve installed it and uninstalled it, that might have left several things of your system that might be causing this.

        though this feature is a bit slow, it still works. Some people are probably terminating the prossess cause thay think it is not work , just a thought.

          I will be testing it for 9.2 with several different clients and OS’s - hopefully I will be able to reproduce it somehow. Can someone with the problem verify that they had uninstalled PowerArchiver, restarted and then installed 9.11?

          thanks,

            1. I exited almost all programs but the email feature didn’t work.

            2. I have uninstalled and installed PA again but it didn’t work either.

                    I have tested an email feature with another program (7zip) and t didn’t work too.

                    Something is wrong with the system, but what?

                    I have attached the list of all applications running (from Windows task manager).

                        The “Email it” feature is not working.

                        I test it using context menu in Explorer and within PowerArchiver.

                        I use OutlookExpress and WindowsXP SP2 (Portuguese).

                        OS: XP SP1
                        PA version: 9.11.01
                        email client: Incredimail

                        everything works perfectly!

                          I have suspected from the start that the problem might be in standard MAPI interface which is used in Windows for this purpose, it sometimes gets messed up but I have not checked on this in a while so I will need to do some checking and reading up. I will let you know when I have something.

                                    Definetelly something specific with your system, bucause on most machines with most e-mail clients (Outook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird, Incredimail, …) work fine. Also on those systems that have problems some other utilities have same problems.

                                    We can do more testing for version 9.5, but in the mean time, if you find out some specific reason why it doesn’t work, it would be very helpfull.
