    • PA 21.00.18 Action / Test behaves oddly for me on .PA files

      Brian Gregory

      PA 21.00.18 running on Windows 7 64 bit.
      I made a big .PA file and thought I’d check it was made correctly with Menu / Actions / Test.
      Discovered:
      a) PA always issues a UAC prompt to do this!
      b) PA always says there are many errors in PA files.

    • Convert archive is incorrect for some WinRAR 5 archives

      W

      WinRAR 5 has a rather useful option in some cases, which is to be able to create an archive by replacing identical files with a reference to the first occurrence (hardlink) within the archive.
      In case you choose to convert the file with PowerArchiver to another format, however, the resulting archive does not have all the files. It does not consider those that were present as hardlinks.
      If you do a normal extraction of the RAR archive instead, even with PowerArchivier, all the files are extracted correctly.

    • Some bugs on Advanced options

      W

      When adding to a file archive, and selecting for example PA format, strong optimization method, extreme compression. In the Advanced Options section you change to Automatic, EXE Filter and PDF filter . You return to the main section and save the Profile. When you then reload the profile you do not have the Automatic options of EXE Filter and PDF saved there.
      I noticed that instead if you change other options they are saved correctly (except for the Filter box values).

      Also among the various changes to the advanced options you click the “Calculate RAM usage” button the value seems to be added to the previous one. You can see it for example just by clicking the button twice in a row, the value changes. Edit: actually after many attempts now it seems to write a stable value (it does not change with each click). Maybe a synchronization problem in the calculation?

      Used PowerArchivier 2023 but there is the same behavior with the 2022

      Hello,

      Question:
      Has the 9.5 beta resolved the previous limitations relating to 7zip ?

      For example:
      -Can we add/delete files from an archive now ?

      Regards,

          thats the only thing left - detection of solid archives… This version adds 7zip multivolume, encryption, etc.

            Thanks for the response.

            Forgive my ignorance but what is “multivolume” ?

            Also, although not in the current beta, is the add/delete files from 7-zip a scheduled feature for the 9.5 release ?

            Regards,

              This means that the file is splitted in more files that are smaller in size.

              A 5 MB will be splitted to 4 files of 1.28 MB, so it can be fitted on a floppydisk

              Keep looking for interesting software.

                oh, I see now, that is what the “multiple disk spanning” options are at the bottom of the “add” dialog.
                Thank you.
