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).

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.

Vista 5600 (RC1)
-
PA doesn’t work in this version either. Seems like they’ve kept the application model.
Also, RC1 is a ‘locked’ version of Vista build. Application model will not change any more so if you make it compatible for RC1 it will live up to release. -
I have the same problem. Seems like MS broke something in RC1

5600 is nice, isnt it? Quite nice.
-
Yes it is.
-
i’m using it as my primary os on my desktop and about half time on my laptop with no problems. (still using delphi 6 at work. doesn’t work so well in vista :))
-
I’m also using it as a primary OS as I just can’t get used back to XP :D
Btw, any fix on the horizon? Must be some small problem for PA to crash.
Also, I like the new Office interface, but Outlook HTML rendering seems to be broken.
Also it downloads images every damn time instead of saving those into the mail itself. -

Should be fixed soon though. We will update 9.6x when that happens.

Why don’t you use your own protection instead of that silly thing. Cracks are anyway all over the Internet…
You loose more on incompatibility than you gain on protection…
Who wants to buy PA will do so anyway. Who doesn’t will use a keygen anyway.

there are no keygens :-). Thats the whole point… with “our” protection, there were around 500 of them :-).

Hmm. I would expect a more underground knowledge from a developer. :)
Well, just xxx.xxx:) -

Well, just xxx.xxx :)i still didnt find any keygens for PA2006… Just serials. There is an big difference there.

In any case, we should have support months before Vista is officially released.
thanks,

Which protection toolkit do you use?

Can’t wait till PA works in RC1 but I will miss the nice Zip icons MS made for archive files. Anyway to use PA and keep those?

sure - you can take them and use PA skins to set them as PA icons - quite easy, just skinning info on this website.
-
Thanks for the info. One more thing: I noticed that if you place a file within an archive, that Vista will prompt you to either cancel or overwrite. With PA, it inserts the new file, but also leaves the original file there too. Can PA be configured to overwrite the old files?

that depends on the path saved - if files have same path, it will be overwriten, if they dont - they it wont.
check archive in explorer view in PA in case you dont understand what I mean…

OK, I’ve just installed the ‘vista ready’ 9.63 powerarchiver which does not work so I then uninstalled it but vista now does not know how to open standard zip files. Any ideas on getting that working?

right click on any file and select Send to> Compressed folder. I think thats what it is called.
Windows will then ask you if you want to re-associate with Compressed Folders.
-
I’m afraid that did not work any other ideas?
-
I’m afraid that did not work any other ideas?
did it actually ask you for the re-association? It just didnt work? Or?
-
Sorry should have made that clearer. I Right Clicked and sent a file to a compressed folder. The zip was created succesfully but I was not prompted about the association. Attempting to open the file prompts for you to choose a program to associate but it’s the os i’m trying to reassociate. Is there a version on the horizon that works with rc1?

Maybe I can create an .reg file for you to re-associate.
As to the Vista, YES, soon, I hope.
thanks,
-
Just choose Windows ‘explorer.exe’ as the program in ‘file association’ and check 'always use this program.
-
thanks, I can now double click and open a zip again. Now if i can just get the compressed folder icon back…

i have to find clean Vista installation, and when I do, I will attach an registry script that will do that…

Why does PA 2004 work but PA 2006 doesn’t?
Suppose its a bit like Nero in that way Nero 6.6.0.6 worked but the new 7 one didn’t.
Ok yes power archiver 2004 works fully on windows vista, you can download it here:
http://download.oldversion.com/powarc926.exe
Yes its a retail copy, no it does not have keygen, you can use trial. May be a slow download tho.
-
They use a component that doesnt work in Vista yet. They are waiting for a new version.
Guido
-
I’m a registered user of PA 2006 is there any way i can get hold of a key for PA 2004 as I am now using it on Vista RC1?
-
email us at support so we can give you reg number as well OR if you purchased PA 2004 or before, you can login to your account and you will still be able to get PA 2004 from there.
thanks,
