    Bug extracting from ZIP etc using Extract here with PA 22.00.09
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

    Windows 11 bug in PA 22.00.09
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

    Missing Icons
    LuxorL

    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

    Security vulnerabilities in 7zip / Update for PowerArchiver and PACL libraries?
    BigMikeB

    Hi there,

    there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:
    https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1165/
    https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1164/

    As it seems, that PowerArchiver and PACL use the 7zip libraries, could you please update them to the latest version?

    Hi,

    From where I get PAVD2023.EXE? PowerArchiver 2023 tries to open it.
    But it seems, it tries to download PAVD2021.EXE.

    Thanks

    Better ZPAQ support
    W

    I noticed that the version of ZPAQ used is older than the latest released 7.15 https://mattmahoney.net/dc/zpaq.html also there seems to be a newer fork that adds several features https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz

    It would be useful to implement this latest version (it also maintains the same syntax and behavior as the latest official release if used the -715 flag) and add when opening a zpaq file a choice of the version of the files to show (e.g. as dummy folders represented the various versions present). Since any previous changes are stored with this format, it is possible to extract a snapshot of a certain date/version.

    Bug with "Encrypt Archive" action
    W

    If I open a password-protected zipper file (created with WinRAR but I think that’s irrelevant), open it with PowerArchiver and run “Remove Encryption” on the same file, then reopen it and add a password with “Encrypt Archive,” the resulting archive will be protected with the old ZipCrypto algorithm and not AES as indicated.
    (this can be verified, for example, by trying to open the archive files with Windows Explorer, which does not support the AES algorithm)

    PA 21.00.18 Action / Test behaves oddly for me on .PA files
    Brian GregoryB

    PA 21.00.18 running on Windows 7 64 bit.
    I made a big .PA file and thought I’d check it was made correctly with Menu / Actions / Test.
    Discovered:
    a) PA always issues a UAC prompt to do this!
    b) PA always says there are many errors in PA files.

      Sorry for the vagueness but unfortunately i cannot consistently reproduce this bug.

      I uninstalled the old 2006 version and did a clean install of 2007.

      I use the classic interface (not the new one).
      I get a delay when closing some arhives. For example i hit the X at the corner of the window with an archive open and the place where the archive contents are displayed goes blank because the file is closed but the PA window persists for about 3 or 4 seconds. It happens with any archive type but unfortunately NOT all the time. Had it happen to both zip and 7z and once with a rar archive i think.

      It never does it if i just open PA with no archives (just start and close the program itself).

      My system spec:

      Windows XP SP2
      P4 3.2E
      1gig DDR ram
      1x 120 gb HD
      1x 200 gb HD

      P.S. Forgot to mention that i have the new queue thing disabled (i don’t want an extra icon cluttering my system tray :( )

      Hope you guys find the bug :)

            i had this problem with some programs and i found that it was a internet explorer bug.

            do u have any programs open when u exit pa

            any programs installed recently

            have you checked for spywrae and virus.

            there is a way to delay programs exiting from within windows though i’m not totally shaw how it works.

              I see this problem too (PA 2007 Beta 2).

              The action that triggers it for me is opening a file inside a zip from PA (for example doubleclicking on a Word doc or .MSI setup file) from within PA.

              If I just extract the file the delay at shutdown does not happen; I have to actually open the file from within PA.

              Explorer or Classic view have no effect on this.

                You got it.

                Yes this is how the bug is reproduced.
                If you run ANY file even a txt file by double clicking you get the delay when closing PA.

                    Thanks!

                    I hope the issue should be fixed in Beta 3. Not sure, but after some changes that might make problems, doesn’t happend.
