Re: Explorer.exe Crash on right click
This appears to be happening again with the Power Archiver 2022 shell extensions.
When I have Use Explorer Shell Extensions enabled in Power Archiver Configuration and right-click on c:\Users\username\Start Menu, (hidden Junction file), File Explorer crashes.
I have version 21.00.15 (03/2022) 64-bit installed in Windows 10 Version 21H2 (Build 19044.1826).

Powerarchiver 2022
Right-click and select Encrypt on a folder does not work.
Although it says it encrypts, there is no encrypted file in the destination folder. -
The online update feature within the program suggests there is a later version than the ‘.17’ available on the web site. But clicking either download or update just reinstalls version .17.
Either there isn’t an update OR
the “download” and 'update" links should be repaired. -

Hi,
When you click on the Buy Now link, you come across four tabs - Home or Work, Enterprise Unlimited, Educational Discount, & Gift Discount.
What is the difference between a licence purchased via Gift Discount and a Home/Work licence?
Also, how can I renew the PowerArchiver Select plan a year after the purchase? Will it remind me automatically?
Best,

I’m running PA 21.00.17 64-bit on a 64-bit i7 desktop with W10 Pro, latest version. This 32gb of installed RAM.
As I use the PA pbs system for a number of scheduled archiving operations throughout the day, PA Starter is set to load and run at system startup.
In the course of trying to identify some causes of slowness and bottlenecks in other processes, I notice that PA Starter (PAS) always runs at between 11% and 15% of CPU (see screenshot), usually at about 12-13%. This is by far the highest demanding process on the system, as shown by Task Manager. In Performance Monitor, PAS Average CPU is 8.32, with every other process at less that 1 i.e. in decimal places only.
Task Manager also shows PAS Power Usage as “Very High”, and is the only process shown thus.
I have looked again at the information about PAS at https://wiki.powerarchiver.com/en:help:details:powerarchiver_starter, which was last modified in 2016. The article states a low memory usage for PAS of 784k, which is fair enough, but it is the large CPU overhead which is of concern.
It is of course possible to change the PAS priority, but this has no effect on CPU overhead.
However, is it possible to change PAS, which is required only at intervals to initiate PA scheduled tasks, from consuming so much system resource for every moment of the day?

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. The “Move” Action seems to be Not Working when used in the Tool – Batch Archive.
Using the Options – Configuration – Compression Profiles ---- I created a Profile with the Action of Move. Also set were Zip, and Method Deflate.
When I use the Tool - Batch Archive – It appears to me that the Action Move does not Move the compressed files (basically add to zip, and delete the added file from original location on the same disk). Zip file(s) are created and look ok.
Typically I on the Batch Archive process – I have selected options to use a Profile with the Move Action.
File’s Current Folder Group files from same folder into same archive Add subfolders to separate archivesMy PowerArchiver version is 21.00.17 .
Can you reproduce ? – Or do you need additional details or information?

Hello,
PowerArchiver Command Line 7 support file greater than 2 Go ?
Thanks
-
i just registered my own copy and i need some help to set it…
if i set the ‘configuration>shell extension>open folder after extracting’ checkbox, after decompress an archive is opened the file manager on that folder but… if somebody is using a different file manager how to open XYplorer or Directory Opus for example and NOT the MS file manager?
consider this as a feature request also if not available within the 2022 version

I am looking for a way to stop the UAC elevation prompt when running Powerarchiver. In an old post about PA 2019, someone asked this and got a response to uncheck “all users” at the prompt but I am not seeing where one can do this. It definitely seems like the way to go though as if I click on “More Details” at the prompt I see that it is trying to run “_pautil.exe /paassociate /allusers /my(long binary string)”. Can you let me know? Thanks.
PS I tried renaming _pautil.exe and this worked, but I don’t know what the consequence of doing this may be so I would like to do this properly, thanks.

Just a question is Ashampoo zip pro 4 built by Powerrachiver as it is very similar and uses the pae encryption.

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.

HELP WITH .pak files
-
well its like this.
PA8 was good for Extracting & making .pak files…
since i got PA9… it wont let me do it no more.
i put in the .pak at the end of the file & then try to do it as i normaly do.
& it just dont work. it just does nothing…?Any Help would be nice :D
-
Can you please outline what exactly are you doing, step by step…
thanks!
-
PAK files were never supported - even extracting was never supported. Can you please explain what you were doing in older versions and with which files?
-
This May Sound Starange But Some People Were Using Zip As Pak Files With Just The Extension Changed To Pak. Sounds Daft But Its True. I Found This Out Over The Internet As I Downloded A Pak Foile Only To Find It Was A Zip File In Discuise
-
I just tried renaming one ZIP file to PAK and then opening it from main PA interface - it worked fine and I could do anything as with ZIP files. Even creating PAK (as ZIP format) files went fine from main PA interface.
From shell extensions it is not supported because shell-extensions are detecting file format based on its extension - so PAK files are not natually supported because they are not originally ZIP files! You should rename them to ZIP if you want to use them from shell extensions.
This is not a BUG because there are REAL PAK files - this is very old format by NoGate Consulting - and they are not supported, and because of this PA is not displaying “Extract” items in shell-extensions for those files.
It is true that PAK format is very similar to old v0.9 ZIP format - it uses same compression methods as old v0.9 ZIP format, but this format is not used any more and there is no reason for supporting it.

well ok…
i have the Game FarCry…
& it uses .PAK file Extensionsin powerArchive 8… i was Abble to open them & then Extract the files… mod them in psp8
then zip them up like this…

i like to extract the *.bik files inside the *.pak files … and play the ffviii scene …
I don’t know what these “bik” files are, but why not do the reverse of what ivan suggested?
Copy/rename the .pak file to .zip
Then (if it really is an old Zip format) you can open it with PA and use Find to extract all the .bik files. -

Although it should be handy to count on that feature in PA 9.x -'cause some games still use it to pack media files even though it’s an old format, you can still use ‘PAKScape’ to Extract & Make “real” .pak files.
Here’s a set of links to download pages: click here
I hope this helps.
