For example:
Download this ZIP file: http://dslstats.me.uk/files/dslstats32W-6.5.zip
Everything in the ZIP file is in a directory “dslstats32W-6.5”.
However when I extract using right click “Extract Here” the name of the directory created is “2W-6.5” !
I am running PA 22.00.09 on Windows 11. I have seen the same happen with some other kinds of archive too.
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
If I compress a folder to a .pa using right click, Compress to folder.pa and use the new Windows 11 menu then the Options, Configuration, Miscellaneous, Use normal relative path setting is always enabled.
But I like this option disabled so I have to use the old style menu in order to get PA to compress a folder in the way I wish.
Just tried using the Modern (Windows 10) Icon set and seeing a few missing icons in both PowerArchiver Burner and PowerArchiver Encryption screens . They are all there in the Minimalistik icon set and the only difference I can see is the former is blue and the latter grey. In version 22.00.9

PA 22.00.09 shows a nag screen, when I try to open some setting windows. I have already PA 2023 Toolbox and PA shows, that it’s licensed in the info dialog.

I’m looking forward to deploying PowerArchiver 2023 to my users. Can you tell us when the MSI will be available for download and distribution?
Thanks.
Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1165/
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1164/
As it seems, that PowerArchiver and PACL use the 7zip libraries, could you please update them to the latest version?
Hi,
From where I get PAVD2023.EXE? PowerArchiver 2023 tries to open it.
But it seems, it tries to download PAVD2021.EXE.
Thanks
I noticed that the version of ZPAQ used is older than the latest released 7.15 https://mattmahoney.net/dc/zpaq.html also there seems to be a newer fork that adds several features https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz
It would be useful to implement this latest version (it also maintains the same syntax and behavior as the latest official release if used the -715 flag) and add when opening a zpaq file a choice of the version of the files to show (e.g. as dummy folders represented the various versions present). Since any previous changes are stored with this format, it is possible to extract a snapshot of a certain date/version.
If I open a password-protected zipper file (created with WinRAR but I think that’s irrelevant), open it with PowerArchiver and run “Remove Encryption” on the same file, then reopen it and add a password with “Encrypt Archive,” the resulting archive will be protected with the old ZipCrypto algorithm and not AES as indicated.
(this can be verified, for example, by trying to open the archive files with Windows Explorer, which does not support the AES algorithm)
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.
Shell Compress…7zip. Progress bar issue...
-
PA beta 4
I’ve noticed that the second progress bar is not working when using 7zip and “Compress with…” or “Compress to xxx.7z”.
For zip files the second progress bar is working fine…
-
Works for me.
Folder containing multiple small files
Compress to “Foldername.7z” both progress bars update.Compress single file to “Filename.7z” both progress bars update.
:confused:
-
As soon as possible I’ll restart my home PC and I’ll try again… Back soon…
-
Well,
Two different PCs… In both the same issue… For 7zip the second progress bar does not work at all!
-
What is the structure of files you are compressing - files/folders, how many?
-
I’ve made lots of tests, even with a single folder with 3 files (pdf files) the second progress bar didn’t work.
However, beta 3 was working fine in both PCs.
I think I still have a copy of beta 3. I’ll install it again and see what happens…
I’ll write here later.
-
Win XP or Win2000 or… ??
-
Office: XP Pro SP2
Home: XP Home SP2 -
I installed beta 3 and now all is working fine.
???
-
Just guessing wildly - could it be a Skin problem?
Multiple PDF or Folder containing PDF - WFM with both “default” and “Green Metal” -
No… Using the default skin.
I’ve tested in folders without pdf too…
Beta 3 is working fine!
-
No… Using the default skin.
I’ve tested in folders without pdf too…
Beta 3 is working fine!
I noticed this as well. We have to find when is it happening.
There were significant updates to 7zip engine in b4, I still reccomend that you use b4, this is only minor issue.thanks,
-
As soon as beta 5 is ready I’ll test it. Thanks!
-
Thanks!
The issue should be fixed in BETA 5.
-
Great!
-
please check with b5 and let us know… thanks
-
It’s working now.
