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

Its a long time since people reported bugs like converter bug still no fix yet

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.

When you select “Deflate (.zip, compatible)” as the method, it still converts the archive to a ZIPX format.
-
Would like to see uha archives supported compression as well as extraction. I use this all the time and it is a very good compression format
-
In windows 10 you can right-click and select send to and the compressed zipped folder and the zip folder will contain the name of the last selected file.
Does PowerArchiver have a similar function?
Tom
-
Converting an archive to .zip (using both the “Deflate (.zip, compatible)” and “Store” compression methods) always creates a .zipx file instead.
pa-convert-zip-1.jpg
pa-convert-zip-2.jpgUsing the “Store” method sometimes creates a .zip file; I have seen it happen just now, but I cannot reproduce it.

patchbeam a waste of time never updated with latest version
Can't run files with double-click
-
Until PowerArchiver 8.80 I could run for example a .htm file inside a ZIP or RAR archive and it would be displayed by the associated application. But with PowerArchiver 9.0 this feature is broken. I double-click on any file and it will do nothing, to open any file I have to use the View button and the associated application.
No error messages are displayed, but I can see the unpacking progress bar working.
I’m using PowerArchiver 9.0 Final under Windows XP SP1. -
Can anyone help me with this issue?
-
We need more information:
- what is your temp folder (you can see it from Options -> Configuration -> Folders)?
- what your Windows language and default keyboard language?

The bug will be fixed in release v9.00.32.

But that is still 9.00.31 (16/07/2004)?
-
-
:eek: I did check before posting …
Honest…
:cool: -
I tested the new build 32 and I can confirm that the bug REMAINS, it has not been fixed. Can you look at the problem again?
Thank you.
-
works fine with the issue we found… what is exact/full path to your temp folder?
Try changing your temp folder to “C:\test” and see if that works.thanks1
-
Doesn’t work either by changing the Temp folder. I’ve tried different temp folders and no luck. It must be something else you’ve done with the 9.0 version, because until the 8.80 version I never had this problem.
-
what is the name of your file your trying to duble click and its size and format.
Could it be that your associations in windows has changed or been messed up by another program. i can not replicate this problem.
-
It occurs with any file no mater the name or type, inside any archive (RAR, ZIP, 7Z…).
-
It occurs with any file no mater the name or type, inside any archive (RAR, ZIP, 7Z…).
What else do you have running at the same time?
-
I have running: Norton AntiVirus 2004 (I already tried disabling, but no luck, the problem remains) and WinGate proxy software.
-
try powerarchiver in safe mode if this works then it is something in your startup files that is causing this. or something that you load once windows starts.
-
have you thought about also if powerarchier in windows safe mode does not work then that your registary is corrupted? run scanreg and see if that is the case also scandisk
-
I will try in safe mode and will post results. I don’t think the problem is with the registry because if I uninstall version 9.0 and install the 8.80 it works fine. Then I uninstall the 8.80 and install the 9.0 again and the problem is back. It occurs only with the 9.0 version (including betas).
-
I found that when I double-click in the file it really extracts it to the temporary folder (I’ve checked) but then it doesn’t open it with the associated Windows application.
-
We have changed way of updating things in 8.8 and then in 9.0. We will have to check why doesnt it work for you now since we cant reproduce it and nobody else reported it yet, so we can not point out the issue.
thank you,
-
Thank you. Please check it out.
-
Finally I found what was causing the bug. If I disable the “Ask to update if the file has been changed” option, PA2004 will not open files with double-click. Is this a normal behavior? I’m asking this because viewing a file won’t do any changes.
-
Hmph,
well thats the cause, but I dont see why it doesnt work on your computer while it works everywhere else. From version 8.8 we monitor the temp folder for file change, so if PA detects that you have saved the file it will ask for update. Before 8.8 we did it differently and that caused problems with half of the people using.
We even changed the monitoring code between 8.8 and 9.0.
thanks,

Sorry, spwolf - I can confirm this under Win98 (English) PA9.00.33 :(
Opening Tutor.zip and double-clicking file3.txt - nothing happens :confused:I never disable “Ask to update…” so hadn’t tried it before

ah, I have not read the post properly… So it happens when ask for update is disabled? GREAT! No reason to be sorry, important thing about bugs/issues is that we can reproduce them, so it really is much better if we can reproduce it easily (e.g. happens to everyone) than if we cant… Of course, as long as it is nothing too silly :-).
thanks both of you,
-
I never though the problem was caused by this option, but I always disabled it :) Glad you can reproduce it. Lets hope you fix it in the next release.
-
I have checked this with the sample zip supplied and found that the file does work even with this ask to update on and off.
I’m using windows 98 se and have 64mb ram
if thats any help. it could be that they installed something or something has taken over the txt file that powerarchiver has difficulty opening when you double click a file. we had this problem before witha program called ultra edit notepad replacement
-
Strange, doesn’t work on Win2k either (for me).
I tried both the txt files (Textpad) and the bmp file (Irfanview).
I also tried a pdf file (inside a zip) - the status bar appears to show extracting, but Reader is not launched :confused: -
Dont worry, we will check it out and see…. It is not related to any issues from before, since this feature was completly redone in 8.8 and 9.0.
thanks,

Yes, you’re right :p

I have no problems and i’m using windows 98 se so it must be a specific problem can you use the ctr alt del key and write down what it sayes and post it here that way we can identify the problem. does it work ok in safe mode? if it does its probably something that is running.
do you have norton products antivirus products firewalls etc.

Not sure what you are looking for (happens in both Win98 and Win2k).
Antway attached is screen dump of Win98 about screen and the Task Manager.Running AVG anti-virus (Avgserv9)
on a laptop (with PS2 mouse - Ocbtray/Point32).Note : Win2k machine is a desktop and has Trend (instead of AVG); shows same problem.
However, both Win98 and Win2k are English version if that has an influence.
(Although Joakim has WinXP / Portuguese).Very strange that you cannot reproduce it. Maybe you have a different fault?
Edit: forgot the smiley :D
“Maybe you have a different fault?” should have been a joke! -
have you tried this in safe mode?
If it works in safe mde then its a program at start up.

:rolleyes: Problem occurs in Safe Mode (Win98) as well !

I am also experiencing issues with Power Archiver hanging when double clicking on files in zip archives to view them.
I have found that as files in the archive are opened by double clicking them, Power Archiver creates sub directories in the Windows Temp directory with names ending with numbers in the range 0 to 99.
It appears that the file to be opened is extracted into one of these sub directories prior to launching the associated application. Once 100 sub directories have been created, Power Archiver hangs when double clicking on a file to open it.
Cleaning out the Windows Temp directory seems to allow Power Archiver to create new sub directories and launch files as expected. I have done this several times now and it resolves the issue every time.
I am running PA 9.00.33 on Windows XP.

oh, thanks - thats a good catch too, who would think that someone would open so many files before closing PA (folders are deleted after you close and open PA again).
thanks,

p.s. You guys should do any other testing on opening files when “ask for update…” option is disabled, we will check it out so dont spend too much time on it, it should be pretty clear what the issue is.
thanks!

Has any of you installed ultimatezip lately there latest beta version has exactly this bug.
-
Ultimate Zip - no, never played with it.
Not sure I understand how PA “Ask to update option” DISabled would be affected by other programs.
Still, when checking compression formats I did play with other utils (for sqx and yz1).
Sqx is almost as good as 7z, but yz1 is not useful (for my needs) so uninstalled that one.At the moment (on Win98) I have 7-zip, sqx, RAR & Ace utilities - but only PA shows this problem.

If it helps, PA does create the file in the temp directory.
By double-clicking the file in the temp directory, the program is launched - so the extract part is functioning OK.PA just does not “launch” the associated application (Txt : Notepad / BMP : IrfanView etc).

i do not get this problem sand i’m using the latest pa and windows updates. so i recond it is somethjing to do with your set up what drives do you have what ram what chip set do you have pentium .
it could be some5thing you’ve installed that has affected the registary.

Thanks!
The issue with “Do not ask for update” feature and opening files will be fixed in next release.
Also the limit of opened files has been increased to 1000.
