Hello everyone
I hope that despite my poor control of English, you can understand me.
When compressing a file, by default the extension is included as part of the file name. for example, if the file is name.pdf, the compressed file will be name_pdf.zip.
Is there any way for the extensions not to be included in the compressed file name? As much as I have searched I don’t see such an option.
Thanks for your time

Hi,
I’m using Convert Archives on a local folder of .zip files, converting them to .lzh files, and I’m finding that perhaps 1 in 75 files is actually converting and outputting a file. Even then, the .lzh file is incomplete, missing most of the source files.
The progress bars completes OK, say 75/75 files, but only one .lzh file exists in the output folder.
It seems to be the same with different source and output folders on both local and USB disk - I can’t see a pattern.
The files extract and compress (to .lzh) without issue on their own.
Is there a log file I can check please, to see why PA does not like these files as part of the batch conversion?
Thanks very much, Rich.

I’m experiencing very slow extraction speed of multipart RAR files. For the first part the extraction is super fast but when PA reaches the part2.rar the extraction from there on gets super slow. PA needed for a 6,3 GB multipart archive 30 minutes to extract. I tested then with another program and it just took 70 seconds. I had this slow extraction speed with PA for quite a long time and I always thought that is maybe because of a high compression rate that the extraction would take longer. But it seems that only PA gets that slow.
I have lots of multipart archives that are 10+ GB and with PA it would be really time consuming. Is there any solution to this?

Hi -
I have powerarchiver licenses for powerarchiver standard and toolbox (and also as a result for pro).
I can successfully register powerarchiver with my pro/toolbox codes, and it unlocks the majority of the content/features. However if I try and create a .pa style archive I get the registration popup saying I need PowerArchiver Pro (if I go to help/about I can verify I have the relevant version and it’s registered to me).

Hi,
I just saw, that on the Website, PowerArchiver 2021 20.00.73 is advertised as latest version. (Actually, the downloaded version says, it’s 20.00.70 in the about dialog)
But it still comes with the “red icon set” for preview versions and has some known unfixed bugs, as I read here.Is it sufficiently stable to be used on production systems?
Kind regards

Hi I recently bought PowerArchiver and found some bugs and issues that I hit testing some of the features out.
If you are doing a backup and on the compression options screen its default is compression format is PA with no option to change disk spanning. If you change to 7-zip you can change disk spanning. If you change the disk spanning then move back to PA format the field for disk spanning disables but the option stays set to what you changed it to. When you do a backup it will use PA with files spanning but PowerArchiver says that its not a valid format when you open it. If PA can’t really do file spanning then this screen is allowing it.
I have attached an image where the progress bar is in the middle of the CD/DVD/BD Tools screen.
alt text
I have a 7-Zip file I created using the backup tools doing an increment backup. It opens and extracts just fine but if you using the Test option PowerArchiver locks up. Link to file: Backup-2021-02-05-20-35-36 TEST LOCKUP.7z
On any Zip/PA/7-Zip process the pause and cancel buttons do not work. You have to hard kill the entire application to get out.

There would be many of us with Intel Processors.
and they have their own optimized zlib algorithm, which can result in more efficiency if used combined with their hardware processor.
Reference:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/zlib-compression-whitepaper-copy.pdfCan we get the same Functionality Under Hardware Acceleration Feature?
Zlib is not the only feature that intel has included with their processor, there’s many, which if combined can result in efficient and better compression ratios.

Hi,
After the batch archiving is complete, and if I click on whitespace of the PA app, I get this error.
PA Batch.png
I did check for ongoing process and ensured no archives were corrupt, It seems like activity did complete successfully but the error is shown for no reason, and only after clicking the whitespace.
Please see if this can be removed.

I’m using the Kaspersky Total Security.
I have configured PA as exclusion as followed:
PA Exclusion.png
and also is set us trusted application
PA Trusted Application.png
Scenario:
My Antivirus likes to scan for everything, and it’s safeguarding behavior is to prevent the access to the file until the file is properly scanned for.
The issue:
PA when losses the access to file, it is stuck, consumes Resources, and never completes the process or throws any error
Recommendation:
PAStarter should also work as PAMonitor:
There should be a monitoring process, at least if I’m using queuing feature, that should check for never ending compression processes and terminate them so the queue can be little bit automated.Also,
There should be multiple attempts at retrying if PA loses access to or is denied, instead of having to see process was stuck for longer duration.Or, better, save the parameters I used for keeping the files in compression, and automatically restart the whole compression process after termination the same, of same folders and files set, this should happen in case if compression was stuck.
-
If you use Queue Feature, you are not saving on space, you are just squeezing less.
Here’s explaination:
https://youtu.be/XcxG2wxyink
I did test the same on multiple files, and of different types.
It does have large difference for each large file you are trying to squeeze.
Folders with multiple files, just have no benefits if you use Queue Feature

Hello!
I am using the portable version of PA2021. After switching from build 58 to 73 I have problems with the color-scheme:
While 58 behaves like expected and showed everything in light or dark colors according to the settings, 73 always shows the lower part of the window in dark colors, no matter whether I select automatic, light or dark.
This happens on a clean installation of 73 as well as on an update from build 58. I have attached two images generated on the same machine at the same time with the same settings. The upper shows build 73, the lower 58. Is it a bug or some changed setting I miss?
Thanks for help!

Hi.
I currently own the PowerArchiver Select - lifetime free upgrades and support for PowerArchiver Toolbox English license.
This license is active on 1 device. Does the license allow me to activate PowerArchiver on a second device that I own? Or do I need a separate license for that?
Thank you ! :)

Hello!
While the installable version of PA 2021 has already received two updates and is at version 20.0.73 the portable version still remains at the initially released build 58. Are there plans to update that version, too?
Thanks for a reply! -
I’ve been dealing with an intermittent explorer.exe crash for 5-6 years now. It happens randomly and will usually occur multiple times within a single session of an hour or two on my machine when manipulating files through Windows Explorer. explorer.exe is the only thing that ever crashes, so it’s not hardware IMO. I’ve done all hardware diagnostics and RAM is good. I’ve even swapped out motherboards with different brand and even the exact same one and it still crashes. sfc /scannow indicates system files are fine. I’ve done multiple reinstalls of the OS with no positive results. This crashing has happened on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10 64-bit. It seemed to get more frequent with Windows 10 after upgrading last year. I’ve also been using PowerArchiver throughout that time period (upgrading over time with new releases). I recently disabled all non-Microsoft extensions via ShellExView and saw no crashes for about 10 days, which is really unusual. I turned back them all back on after 10 days and saw another explorer.exe crash within the hour. So I disabled all 32-bit extensions and saw another crash. Following that I disabled all the PowerArchiver shell extensions and haven’t seen a crash after a day of heavy usage manipulating files within Windows Explorer, which doesn’t happen for me. The crash dumps I’ve captured don’t seem to indicate PowerArchiver is involved but I have a hunch it has something do with PowerArchiver shell extensions. The system even feels smoother with the PA extensions disabled. Windows 10 reliability monitor always has the same type of problem:

I can provide the crash dumps and additional information if necessary.
Shell extensions won´t work on 9.63.1
-
Earlier this day, I have upgraded my PA from v. 9.62 to the newest 9.63.01 version. Since then, I can´t use shell extensions because it keeps doing odd things.
An example: I just right-click on a zip archive and select the “extract here” option. The extracting process suddenly stops at 0% with this error:
“Access violation at adress 006EDD5E in module POWERARC.EXE. Read of adress FFFFFF.”
If I open an archive in the main program browser window and want to extract it from there, everything is just fine.
–
The next problem is when I want to create an archive using the shell extensions (I tested both ZIP and 7-Zip formats). If I select a any file or folder and then click on the “Compress with options” feature, the dialog which should normally appear just blinks on the screen for like 0.5 sec. or so and is gone. If I want to compress something directly and choose “Compress into filename.zip” the window where the progress of creating the archive could be seen also disappears in about 0.5 sec. and NO archive is created.
I tried to reinstall the whole app. and also installed the hotfix avilable on this forum, but no success.
I use latest english version of PA 9.63.1 and english Windows XP SP2.
Thank you for any advice you could give me.

Hi,
Can you check what is the date on shell extensions dll in your PA folder?
thanks,
-
Well, it shows that it was last modified on:
Friday, July 21, 2006, 8:09:00 PM
Version: 9.6.1.3
-
and all of the other files as well? Did you possibly install PowerArchiver in different folder or did you upgrade over old version?
Anyone else having similar issues? I cant reproduce it on our test computers.
thanks,
-
I have installed over the old version. When the setup finished, I was asked to restart my computer, which I did.
After I had discovered this issues, I also removed PA completely and scanned registry and system for any parts that might have been left behind and I think I removed all of them. I restarted computer again and made a clean install but it didn´t help.
And the date and version of POWERARC.EXE exactly matches that of PASHLEXT.DLL.
There´s one more thing I´ve discovered. If I use shell extensions to encrypt a file, it works fine. It just seems that the “Add to archive” dialog and the “Progress” dialog aren´t working.
-
does it happen with all archives or only some? What happens if you create brand new archive, with single file in it… does it work or?
thanks,
-
James - try doing same operations you have issues with in C:\
does it work?
thanks,
-
Ok, I´ve just created a test archive (ZIP) with only a single small txt file in it. It works only if I use Power Archiver´s main window to extract. (I double click the file, PA opens and then I click “Exctact” on the main toolbar). This way, it works w/o problems. But once I use shell extensions, it spits out the same error “Access violation at adress…”
James - try doing same operations you have issues with in C:\
Sorry, but could you give me some example, like what kind of issues within C:\ could it be?
-
Well…this is interesting. I removed PA once more and made next clean installation. This time, I touched nothing in the progrm settings, didn´t even register it and just tried to add a single file into a ZIP archive using shell extensions. And it worked!
Then, I went step by step, configuring PA´s options and settings and every time I changed something, I checked whether shell extensions work or not. And I´ve discovered something. These problems occur right after I change the location of PA´s Temp folder (I don´t use the default). With the older version it had worked fine though.

what is location of the temp folder you like to use?
I use C:\Temp for most programs, including PA. Nevertheless I tried randomly created folders too and it didn´t work either. Once I used regedit and deleted the values containing the info on current Temp folder, it worked perfectly, w/o next re-installation.

hmph, C:\Temp works great for me.
But hey, as long as it works for you know :-).

I don´t know what could be wrong. But yeah, as long as it works for me, it´s all good :-)
Anyways, thank you for your time!

Hi,
I have the same problem with the shell extensions. I just do not get any error messages. If I use the “Compress to xxx.zip” I get a ghosty image of the adding files dialog for half a second or so. I assume PA crashes.
I have already tried the engine update. I run Windows XP SP2 Pro english. english PA. Updated directly over 9.62.
Any news on this buggy behaviour???
-
what is your temp folder?
Did you try compressing single file in C:?
-
My temp folder was c:\working.
After restoring the default distribution values via the menu PA worked fine.
-
I am also experiencing this issue and can confirm that it involves the temp file location. I was having the exact same problems, the access violations and non-working shell extensions. After reading this thread I changed the temp file location back to the default and it worked fine.
For those who want to use a different temp file location I believe as a workaround you can set it in the Windows TEMP environment variable and leave the location field in PowerArchiver blank. Everything should work then.
Hopefully they will fix this bug in the next release. :)
-
hm, problem is that it works fine here.
Where did you guys install PowerArchiver to? C:\ drive or?thanks,
-
can anyone of you switch back to custom folder, and see if it works? If it does not, export your PA registry settings and attach them to the thread?
thanks!
-
Well, I changed back to C:\Temp, does not work.
Here is the reg file (I´ve changed the extension to the txt because this forum doesn´t support reg files).

The existing file is deleted.I have 21 GB free on drive.
So I changed the temp folder to “D:\Temp” and tried it again. If i drop a file over an existing zip file nothing happens. No message, no adding the file. The Zip file still exists.
The same problem appears if I use the main window. I click new, give a filename, select some files to add and the I get the error message:
“Fehler beim Schreiben in Datei. Mögliche Ursachen: Datenträger voll, kein Schreibzugriff, Laufwerk nicht bereit, Datenträgerfehler”
mabe in egnlish: “Error during the writing in file. Possible causes: Data medium fully, no write access, drive assembly not ready, data carrier errors”I hope it helps…
Sorry for my poor english.
Amigage from GermanyI attached my registry settings.

Well, I changed back to C:\Temp, does not work.
Here is the reg file (I´ve changed the extension to the txt because this forum doesn´t support reg files).

9.63.01 - Hotfix
Great, it works and the problem is solved :cool: -
This post is deleted! -
I installed the hotfix, it did not fix the temp folder problem however. I still get access violations and non working shell extensions if I change the temp location to anything else. I have the program installed to the default location (C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver) and have made no other changes.

hotfix solves different problem, this temp folder problem will have to be solved via new version…
-
please try latest version from the website and see if it works…
thanks,

Hereby, I can confirm that the new version works flawlessly!
Thank you for the quick analysis of the problem and the new, fixed version.

Spywolf, can you take the hotfix offline since a new 9.63.02 version has been released.

Good news

I have a problem if I want to delete a single file from a zip file. The same error appears: “No space left on volume”. The zip-File was renamed with a temporary name like “G7a01644”
I can rename it to the original filename and the zip file is valid and the selected file is deleted.
Whats wrong?
Best regards

Amigagewell, what version of PowerArchiver are you using?
-
I use Version 9.63.01 with the Hotfix from 24.07.!
DZIPS32.DLL = 6.0.0.5
DUNZIPS32.DLL = 6.0.0.5Best regards

please use the latest version from our website and see if that works.
Other than that, is the zip file read only possibly? Try with some other zip archive (possibly completly new archive) and see if it works.
-
Now I installed the latest version, restarted the system.
But the problem is still alive :-(
If I want to delete a file from a zip archive, PA can not rename the zip archive to the original name.This problem appears also with different zip archives and new archives. The files don’t have the flag “read only”.

I cannot reproduce this problem.
Using windows explorer select a zip file.
Double-Click to open in PA.
Select a file and press "Delete"in Toolbar.
Works fine :confused:Can you provide more details of what you are doing?
Size of files (Zip and uncompressed).
How much free disk space (is you temporary folder on the same drive as the Zip file)?
Try a quick test, make a copy of “Tutor.zip” from PA program directory - can you delete a file from this? -

:confused: :confused: I tried it with the tutor.zip and all is okay. I tried it with an Zip Archive on drive D:\ sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t work.
I believe, the problem appears if I want to delete files from the archive when also installation programs are in the zip archive, like setup.exe
I hope, you understand what I mean.

Amigagedo you have any smaller archive we can check out and see if it works on our computer? You can attach it to t he forums.
-
1. what happens when you want to add files to that archive?
2. If adding works, try “repairing” the archive via repair tool and then see if deleting works.Is there any way you can check “ownership” of the files? To see if possibly they are owned by another user.
And are you doing it under admin account?
thanks!

No problem.

The files in zip archives are okay.
Is there any way you can check “ownership” of the files? To see if possibly they are owned by another user.
No I can’t.
And are you doing it under admin account?
Yes, my account is an admin account with all rights. Till the last update to 9.63 all functions are okay. it was possible to add and delete files to/from archive files without problems.
The zip archive with the problems is minimum 106 kB (with file setup.exe)
Please download it from http://www.leipzig-info.net/heiko/test_PAFixed.zip
Please delete the txt-file in zip archive and then the file setup.exe. Please try it several times.

Done that - still no problems (for me) :confused:

I also have no problems with the file. Is this the only file that has problems?

can you try resetting your settings back to default (under Options), and see if that works? It might be specific to certain setting you have.
thanks,

Wild guess (because of exe file) - do you have active scanning by an Anti Virus which could “lock” the temp file??

This could be possible. I have running an active antivirus program called “Panda Titanium 2006 Antivirus”.
But I can’t believe that this program is the cause for the problem. Till 9.63 I didn’t have any problems with deleting files from zip archives.
Now I will do reset the configuration of PA and will tell you the results.
