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.
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
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.
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

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.

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.
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
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.
PA 10b2: 3 bugs on Windows XP x64
-
Hello,
1 - Annoying: when running a fresh install of PA 10 B2 on a XP x64 workstation, the shell extensions are not available in the explorer, even if the option in the installer has been set and the options in PA is reported enabled.
2 - Minor: when entering registration code, if, by mistake, you enter a PA 2006 code (I had half a brain cell this morning), the license information wizard succeeds and ask to restart PA to complete the registration procedure. Of course, when you restart PA, you have to enter a correct registration code.
It would be nice to have a warning dialog that the code
is for PA 2006 and that a new code is to be retrieved from the account page.
Entering the PA 2007 code solves the problem of course.3 - Really Annoying: when an archive is opened in PA, If I select a few files from my archive, I cannot drag-drop them to an explorer window. When I try to move my selection, PA tries to rebuild a selection and not do a drag-drop.

1. I will check for it - I think I know where is the problem.
3. Which format? Are there any UNICODE filenames inside (I saw this problem only with unicode files inside archive).
-
2. thats impossible due how our system works.
3. It happened to me once, but I couldnt reproduce it anymore, so any other info on the archive helps….
-
1. I have XP Pro x64 Workstation 2 at work and have no problems with the shell extentions. However, you do have to create the extention list 1st in the options menu as their doesnt seem to be a default list once installed.
2, I agree that it would be a nice to have a menu that apears informing you that the serial you entered is correct or wrong without having to restart the application. However, it is a “nice to have” not an essential piece of work that has to be done.
3. I have had this exact same problem and for the sake of me I cant Replicate it! rest asure when i do I will let you guys know.
-
More info.
2 - The registration stuff is really minor. Once I read the e-mail and got the 2007 code, everything was fine.3 - I have the problems on rar archives.
On zip files, it’s a question of position of cursor: I can drag drop files when I move a selection when the cursor is on the file name or the icon in the file list view.
When the cursor is above the date, file types or any columns right to file names, the selection is reset.
It’s a bit tricky because the selection spans all the row.
On Rar archives, it’s systematic.
I got the problems with these archives from this link

Regarding 1,
In options once enabling shell extentions you “have” to create the menu’s you wish to show via submenu or else it will not show when you right click despite enabling it!
I have provided a breif image of what it should look like.
PA Crew, can you create a default shell extention menu and should a user wish to change this they can via the options menu.

reported problem is with x64 specific extensions, not related to selecting what extensions to include.
By default, shell extensions are turned on. Submenus are not, only when you have PA 2006 installer before, and PA doesnt reset its usage… However if you do clean install or reset PA settings, hybrid shell extensions are shown by default.

Shell extensions will work now on x64 systems as well from Beta 4. Thanks!
