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.
Comments on new skin library
-
-
the filesize of the screenshots are too big. Each screenshot about 60kB. Maybe you can try another format like JPG or GIF
-
a search function in the skin library would be great
-
-
what would you search? You can sort by downloads or rating though… As to the screenshots, unfortunatly they look pretty bad in anything else than png…
-
I would search for skin names like Apple Mac or LinuxSkin.
how about JPEG2000?
-
How about a quick guide for installing a skin that has been downloaded (via browser).
Open psf file in PowerArchiver, extract to “Filename as folder”, choose “Options/Skins” is not exactly intuitive.
Or has anyone found a better/easier way when using an internet browser (not PA option) to download skins?

If you open PSF file in PA, it will ask if you want to install the skin and then if you want to use the skin. It is quite intuitive :-). You can click on skin on the webpage and choose open or choose save as and open it after it is downloaded.
What exactly happens on your computer?

I do not get PA asking if I want to install the skin.
Ahhh - If I do NOT have PA open, but doubleclick on “Green_Metal.psf” in Windows Explorer, then I do get the “install prompt”.However, after downloading “Green_Metal.psf” try -
Start PA,Open, Select Files of Type - “All Files”, choose “Green_Metal.psf”
Opens with “normal” contents display -
program.skn
settings.iniNo install prompt - why not :confused:
-
it is assuming that you want to edit the skin (ie open it).

In which case I would say ‘No’ to the install prompt. :cool:
