I’m looking forward to deploying PowerArchiver 2023 to my users. Can you tell us when the MSI will be available for download and distribution?
Thanks.
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 there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:

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
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.
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 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.
Toolbar in Classic Skin 2007
-
When trying to disable the Toolbar using the classic skin in the new Beta2 of 2007 it doesn’t stick. When starting another instance of PowerArchiver the toolbar is back, even though it is not activated in the View options.
The new skins are nice aswell, but I don’t like the big bar on the top, so I went back for the classic skin…
Good work though, keep it up!
-
can you explain a bit better what exactly are you trying to do?
thanks!
-
Of course.
On a fresh install of Beta 2 I switch back to the default classic skin. Then I uncheck the toolbar under View -> Toolbar. Now the toolbar is gone as I wanted.
But when starting PowerArchiver again, the toolbar is getting displayed again. The option doesn’t stick it seems.

Doesn’t work for me either (although not really an issue cause i use the toolbar a lot :))

thanks, got it.
p.s. you know that if you go to skins, and delete (default) from toolbar skin, you will see just toolbar text, no images? That looks nice if you want minimalistic look

Oh, I just tried that and it is quite nice indeed. I always assumed there had to be something in that line.
Thanks a lot.

Thanks Xenthalon!
The issue should be fixed in Beta 3.
