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.

Tutor.Zip

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.
