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.
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

Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:

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.
.pae files?

Hi,
There is no way (at least official) to decrypt .pae file without PowerArchiver… So you may download PA Trial for free from http://www.powerarchiver.com/download/ and extract it…
Maybe then you would want to make your own pae files and other archives and you purchase PA - the best archiver in the world :DSerhiy

when will you be able to decrypt pae files without powerarchiver?

Maybe when PA developers will make some “UnPAE DLL” and some other software use it to decrypt these files

Well, there are PAE SFX’s now, which make it easy to distribute PAE archives. As well as the fact that anyone can download and use PA2006.
We dont plan to issue dll’s, since in fact, we think zip aes and 7zip aes are sufficient for everyone. PAE was made before zip aes existed and when zip’s encryption was very weak.
thanks,

pae is great cause it can be used on files that do not need compression or files that simply are groups of different compssed archives. i think they have the wrong approach pae is far far better than any other encryption.
You add files to pae after compression where as the zip or 7zip aes you have to do it at the creation of the archive.
what does everyone else think?

i am closing this thread. You can open an new thread in Wishlist if you want to discuss whatever you want to discuss :-).
a. You can create SFX PAE
b. Anyone can download and use PA2006 to extract PAEThose two answered original question, anything else is some new feature.
thanks
