On installing the program I am getting the error message:
"Unable to execute file c:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\pashutil.exe
CreateProcess failed: code 2
The system cannot find the file specified"
This can’t be right!
I am using the latest official build of Windows 11

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 everyone, some good news about PowerArchiver… I’ve managed to get in touch with the original developer of PowerArchiver, Ivan Petrovic, and he has confirmed that the product is not dead or abandoned, in fact it is still very much alive! There has been a hiatus over the past months for various reasons, but that we should expect to see stuff coming through in the coming months (hopefully the next 2 months).
I had a large .tar file (a backed up WSL) and I want to delete a few directories and their contents from it using PA2023.
PA just destroys the whole archive as soon as I try to delete a directory, leaving it in a state where PA2023 won’t even open it any more.
I tried several times and also tried compressing it to .tar.xz instead - same result.
This should either actually work, or it should say operation not supported and do nothing.
Hello!
The regular version of PA 2023 is out for over 6 months now, but there is still no sign of the portable release.
(When) will there be one?
Thanks!
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
Win 11 64 bit
I have some archives which have been encrypted, using the encrypt option either in pbs or when interactively creating a zip. When I open these, and look at files, I am asked for passwords, which I know, and then can view items or decrypt the files in the archive (tools>decrypt files).
However, when I use the Actions>Remove Archive Encryption (whether using the same zip or asking to write another), the routine shows progress bar to the end, but then just hangs i.e. “OK” never activates. All process information shows this stalled/hanging.
What can I do to sort this out?
For example:
Download this ZIP file: http://dslstats.me.uk/files/dslstats32W-6.5.zip
Everything in the ZIP file is in a directory “dslstats32W-6.5”.
However when I extract using right click “Extract Here” the name of the directory created is “2W-6.5” !
I am running PA 22.00.09 on Windows 11. I have seen the same happen with some other kinds of archive too.
If I compress a folder to a .pa using right click, Compress to folder.pa and use the new Windows 11 menu then the Options, Configuration, Miscellaneous, Use normal relative path setting is always enabled.
But I like this option disabled so I have to use the old style menu in order to get PA to compress a folder in the way I wish.

PA 22.00.09 shows a nag screen, when I try to open some setting windows. I have already PA 2023 Toolbox and PA shows, that it’s licensed in the info dialog.

Can't open archive
-
Hello, I wanted to open the archive I downloaded but it won’t work. All I see is the directory structure from C: until the archive.
It was an archive (tar) containing icons downloaded from art.gnome.org.
It’s about 6meg in size so there must be something in it.
It was the archive on this page:
http://art.gnome.org/themes/icon/1150#What could be the problem? I think the file was made for linux, could this be the problem?
-
If you are referring to the “Unofficial Tango” then it worked for me.
It is actually a tar.bz2 file. It extracts into a sub-folder Tango\ …
Lets start by asking if your PowerArchiver is up to date - what version are you using?
@Stephen:Hello, I wanted to open the archive I downloaded but it won’t work.
How are you trying to open it? Have you activated the flag Misc - Smart Handling - Open TAR files transparently? Are you opening it with PowerArchiver GUI or are you using the Explorer shell extensions?
@Stephen:All I see is the directory structure from C: until the archive.
I’m not sure what you mean by this. Are you using Windows Explorer or are you looking within the archive using the PowerArchiver GUI?
@Stephen:What could be the problem? I think the file was made for linux, could this be the problem?
As I say - extraction works for me so it is not a Linux compatibility problem.

Version 9.51.02
I used the shell extensions, and I have open tar files trans. checked.
All this produces is an empty folder with the same name as the archive.
If I open PA and double click on the file in the folders bar I see ‘C:’
If I expand this I get ‘Documents and settings’ under the ‘C:’. If I keep expanding I get to the archive and double clicking on this does nothing.

Please download the latest version from our website and try again.
thanks!

Same problem, even deleted the file from browser cache and re-downloaded.
Can anyone send me the icons in a zip? stephen underscore c underscore at hotmail dot com

for some reason, it downloads as .tar.tar file. Go to your download folder, and rename it to .tar.bz2.
Then try opening it with PowerArchiver.
that has worked for me.
thanks,

That fixed the problem. Can powerarchiver be made to do this automatically?

for some reason, it downloads as .tar.tar file. Go to your download folder, and rename it to .tar.bz2.
Browser problem ?
- it is correct (tar.bz2) with both Opera and Firefox for me :p

Hmm… must be an IE issue :-)
