Re: Explorer.exe Crash on right click
This appears to be happening again with the Power Archiver 2022 shell extensions.
When I have Use Explorer Shell Extensions enabled in Power Archiver Configuration and right-click on c:\Users\username\Start Menu, (hidden Junction file), File Explorer crashes.
I have version 21.00.15 (03/2022) 64-bit installed in Windows 10 Version 21H2 (Build 19044.1826).

Powerarchiver 2022
Right-click and select Encrypt on a folder does not work.
Although it says it encrypts, there is no encrypted file in the destination folder. -
The online update feature within the program suggests there is a later version than the ‘.17’ available on the web site. But clicking either download or update just reinstalls version .17.
Either there isn’t an update OR
the “download” and 'update" links should be repaired. -

Hi,
When you click on the Buy Now link, you come across four tabs - Home or Work, Enterprise Unlimited, Educational Discount, & Gift Discount.
What is the difference between a licence purchased via Gift Discount and a Home/Work licence?
Also, how can I renew the PowerArchiver Select plan a year after the purchase? Will it remind me automatically?
Best,

I’m running PA 21.00.17 64-bit on a 64-bit i7 desktop with W10 Pro, latest version. This 32gb of installed RAM.
As I use the PA pbs system for a number of scheduled archiving operations throughout the day, PA Starter is set to load and run at system startup.
In the course of trying to identify some causes of slowness and bottlenecks in other processes, I notice that PA Starter (PAS) always runs at between 11% and 15% of CPU (see screenshot), usually at about 12-13%. This is by far the highest demanding process on the system, as shown by Task Manager. In Performance Monitor, PAS Average CPU is 8.32, with every other process at less that 1 i.e. in decimal places only.
Task Manager also shows PAS Power Usage as “Very High”, and is the only process shown thus.
I have looked again at the information about PAS at https://wiki.powerarchiver.com/en:help:details:powerarchiver_starter, which was last modified in 2016. The article states a low memory usage for PAS of 784k, which is fair enough, but it is the large CPU overhead which is of concern.
It is of course possible to change the PAS priority, but this has no effect on CPU overhead.
However, is it possible to change PAS, which is required only at intervals to initiate PA scheduled tasks, from consuming so much system resource for every moment of the day?

I’m experiencing very slow extraction speed of multipart RAR files. For the first part the extraction is super fast but when PA reaches the part2.rar the extraction from there on gets super slow. PA needed for a 6,3 GB multipart archive 30 minutes to extract. I tested then with another program and it just took 70 seconds. I had this slow extraction speed with PA for quite a long time and I always thought that is maybe because of a high compression rate that the extraction would take longer. But it seems that only PA gets that slow.
I have lots of multipart archives that are 10+ GB and with PA it would be really time consuming. Is there any solution to this?

Hi. The “Move” Action seems to be Not Working when used in the Tool – Batch Archive.
Using the Options – Configuration – Compression Profiles ---- I created a Profile with the Action of Move. Also set were Zip, and Method Deflate.
When I use the Tool - Batch Archive – It appears to me that the Action Move does not Move the compressed files (basically add to zip, and delete the added file from original location on the same disk). Zip file(s) are created and look ok.
Typically I on the Batch Archive process – I have selected options to use a Profile with the Move Action.
File’s Current Folder Group files from same folder into same archive Add subfolders to separate archivesMy PowerArchiver version is 21.00.17 .
Can you reproduce ? – Or do you need additional details or information?

Hello,
PowerArchiver Command Line 7 support file greater than 2 Go ?
Thanks
-
i just registered my own copy and i need some help to set it…
if i set the ‘configuration>shell extension>open folder after extracting’ checkbox, after decompress an archive is opened the file manager on that folder but… if somebody is using a different file manager how to open XYplorer or Directory Opus for example and NOT the MS file manager?
consider this as a feature request also if not available within the 2022 version

I am looking for a way to stop the UAC elevation prompt when running Powerarchiver. In an old post about PA 2019, someone asked this and got a response to uncheck “all users” at the prompt but I am not seeing where one can do this. It definitely seems like the way to go though as if I click on “More Details” at the prompt I see that it is trying to run “_pautil.exe /paassociate /allusers /my(long binary string)”. Can you let me know? Thanks.
PS I tried renaming _pautil.exe and this worked, but I don’t know what the consequence of doing this may be so I would like to do this properly, thanks.

Just a question is Ashampoo zip pro 4 built by Powerrachiver as it is very similar and uses the pae encryption.

There would be many of us with Intel Processors.
and they have their own optimized zlib algorithm, which can result in more efficiency if used combined with their hardware processor.
Reference:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/zlib-compression-whitepaper-copy.pdfCan we get the same Functionality Under Hardware Acceleration Feature?
Zlib is not the only feature that intel has included with their processor, there’s many, which if combined can result in efficient and better compression ratios.

Extract to dir;PA can't handle;dir's created anyway
-
try to extract an exe file through the context menu, when PA shows you the “extract to” option…sometimes it’s a file PA can’t handle.
also in those cases, if you chose to extract into a folder, that folder will be created.
wouldn’t it be better for it to be deleted, as the extraction process failed so you surely will delete the new dir manually?
-
What happens if some files were extracted and some were not? Or if folder is already present and file doesnt work? Prefferably, we wont delete files or folders that we dont have to since that is just asking for some bug to kreep in and delete your files.
thanks,

you’re sort of right, spwolf…yes, that would lead to problems if the dir was already present.
then…maybe a popup win saying “would you like to delete the dir XXX (which was just created)”?
what do you think?
-
I have fixed so now if folder was created by PowerArchiver and no files were extracted due broked archive (or unsupported SFX file) will be removed by PoweArchiver automatically.

Bug gone…but not completely!
Gone, because PA now tells me at once that the file’s corrupted, and does not create any new dir! :D
WELL DONE!“not completely” because I have to click TWICE on “OK” to close PA warning messages, it seems two identic messages come out.
FYI, the “double click bug” was there in .33 as well…check it! ;)
-
What double click bug - it wasn’t something mentioned in this thread?
-
no, I had not mentioned it anywhere before…yet it’s related to the bug I opened this thread for.
when a corrupted file fails to extract, no folders are created, ok, problem solved.
but PA tells you TWICE that the file’s corrupted and can’t be extracted, and you have to click TWICE on “ok” to get rid of the warning message…I think you can reproduce that behaviour quite easily…let me know!
-
Still cannot reproduce double dialog. Can you please tell me exact message being shown and maybe send me smallest file you are having this problem with - since double dialog does not show on any corrupted archive.
-
download the following file:

uncompress and see the avi I created.here’s the corrupted zip file I used:
http://user1.7host.com/maiuebsait/mix/CorruptedArchive_TestPurpose.zipso…could you reproduce it now?
pls let me know!the problem persists with v9.01.01 as well!
-
@ivan: did you read my last message? what do you think?
-
Thanks!
I will check it.
-
with the pre-release 9.01.02 PA is back to the situation I reported at the beginning of this thread:
-if you try to extract the corrupted file via “extract here”, you’ll see the extraction windows complete its task but then nothing will be extracted.
-if you choose “extract to \filename” the filename dir will be created, empty
-if you open the archive in PA it will show you the name of the file inside, and if you try to extract or open it from there, you’ll be given the “unexpected end of zip file”, and you’ll have to click twice on the message window to get rid of it.
so, I have to say 9.01.01 was better…ok, you had to click twice on the message win as well, but at least it found out the archive was corrupted, and the message would always pop up!
-
with the latest 9.02.00, nothing has changed with regards to my previous post… :(
@dev’s: is it going to be fixed any shortly? thanks!

9.10.06: bug still there, unfortunately :(
W*nR** handles that properly, prompting about the archive being corrupted. -

In 9.5b4 the problem is gone, now no empty dirs are created for corrupted archives anymore! :)
