It would be nice to be able to at least extract Zstandard archives.

I prefer to use light themes, and when, for example, I have set up my main archive screen to be Classic Toolbar with Blizzard Blue, files in the archive are highlighted (no checkboxes, full row select) with white text on grey background. They are easy to see .
However, in the Add screens, the files and folders are black type upon a pale blue background, which is not so readily visible, especially when highlighting separate files in lists with Ctrl/Click for addition. It would be ideal if the backgrounds to files in these screens could be set to mimic the highlighting of those in the main archive window.
I have tried experimenting with different themes and settings for skins, toolbars and so forth, but, unless I’ve missed something, none seem to give me the effect I want.

Re: Windows 11 Context menu support
It would really make me happy if you put .BH in the Windows 11 context menu. I know it’s in the “More Options” section, but this would make it more convenient. Don’t know why the option to add it to the menu isn’t there in the first place. P-L-E-A-S-E ??? :) Thanks You!

Any chance of including this format in a future release?

Exceptional compression levels.
Thanks.

In Windows 11 a new explorer context menu is introduced.
The “old” context menu may still be accessed through an additional mouse click, to reach the PowerArchiver context menu functions, but this isn’t comfortable at all.Could you add PowerArchiver items to the first level (and ideally disable the Windows native ZIP entry)

I’m surprised that OneDrive for Business isn’t supported. I can’t link my company’s OneDrive account, but a personal (free) account works fine.

Hi,
I’d like to propose an improvement for password protected archives.
Actual behavior is:
If I open an archive, which is password protected and make a typo in the password dialog, I’ll get the message, that the password was wrong and I end up with an empty window. I need to reopen the archive to be able to enter the password again.Improved behavior:
Tell me, that the password was wrong and give me the chance to enter the correct password to decrypt the archive. -
Hello!
I know I have been asking for this feature some time ago, but as nothing has changed let me ask again:
The ZIPX-format offers an algorithm, that compresses JPEG-files by about 20-30%. Please add compression (packing) support for this in ZIPX-archives to Powerarchiver. Extraction of JPEGs packed into ZIPX by this algorithm is already supported by Powerarchiver for a long time, so it should not be difficult? Or is it a licensing problem?
Thanks! -
Hi,
I’d like to suggest, that the correct archive type is (always) selected, when adding files by drag & drop to an archive.
This is already happening if the archive has the correct extension. For example, if I’m adding files to test.zip, zip will be selected. If I’m adding files to test.7z, 7z will be selected as format in “Add dialog”.
But this won’t be working, if the archive has not the “right” extension.
So XPI files (Firefox addons) for example are ZIP files. PowerArchiver opens them without any problems, but if I try to add file by drag & drop, PowerArchiver won’t auto select “ZIP”, but use the last selected archive format, while PowerArchiver already knows, that I’m trying to add files to a ZIP. -
I love this, only there is one problem. The UAC elevation feature does not extend to Mount Image option in the add-on software PA provided. It is most annoying whenever I am on highest UAC settings and I mount an ISO, every time I open and create a virtual drive UAC appears. I also do not want to completely disable UAC.
Is adding UAC elevation for mount image feature possible?

The now defunct Bulkzip had Nanozip (nz) as an option this would be great to have for compatibility with my .nz files, so I don’t have to install Bulkzip separately.
Plugins
-
why don’t you take a look at this site and use their plugin technology.
http://www.mimarsinan.com/codextoys.aspgreat way to create sit and even rar files via plugins
-
it will be snowing in june in Europe when David posts his wish by adding it to his previous post he did 10 separate times before :-).
-
no i was just asking a general question why not join forces and use this codex its not a wish its actually a general question. save time and money developing codexs share them. I have mentioned it before, plugins, but as this is a general question why develop your own plugins that takes a very long time when a proven plugin technology is already avaliable. i was actually trying to speed up development of pa, to keep it head of the game.
Keep up the work
-
it is still an wish. And you posted about plugins several times before, in the wishlist forums, now you are posting it in general forums.
It would look better if you simply update your previous wish, not create multiple posts. This includes all the wishes. Simply search for your post and update it.
Why would we use some other technology which limits what we can and can not do? Whatever we do, it has to be completly built in and integrated to PowerArchiver, otherwise it will only have fraction of features possible.
-
when will this be?
i take your point justed wanted to keep you informed. your answer is true to a point, but in past replis on this subject you said you would not do a rar and sit plugin to compress to theses formats thoe the codex i mentioned does. It must be worth investigating rar and sit plugins for pa in the very near future or you might be left behind and i don’t want that to happen as you give the best support around.
-
… i take your point justed wanted to keep you informed. …
Yes, but even this “plugin” has been mentioned before :-
http://www.powerarchiver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1134 -
But it keeps it alive if we have a set time scale for the build map of pa then we would not need to keep asking these questions and that would help the developers get on with their jobs
-
The “best way” to keep a topic alive is to add new information to an existing thread.
My point is that repeatedly creating new threads for the same topic(s) just appears as “noise” and may cause irritation.
-
i agree to a certain extent but it also keeps the idea going enough said about that well will it be implimented as it is sated plugins are already avaliable on the avertise part of this site.
-
Where ?
All I can find is refence(s) to
“PowerArchiver Outlook Plug-in works with Microsoft Outlook 2000, XP and 2003.” -
if you search for plugins, posted by david, it is 2 pages worth of results (threads) :-). Wouldnt it be more impressive if it was 2-3 threads with 5-6 pages worth of material? :-).
-
i have already said it needs to be tied up and yes in future i will post to old threads if i can fimnd them and if you look at the help file and search for plugins you get pgp plugin thoe you can not get it via the web site yet
