    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.

      For the first time ever I am having a problem downloading the latest update. I currently have v9.63.02. I have tried a number of times from the website and also from within PowerArchiver with and without the firewall on. It seems to download but when I try to install I always get a message that “The setup files are corrupt…”

      What should I do?

      Thanks,

          Blair,

          If you ever have problems downloading files and they are coming across as currupt this usually results in;

          Firewall
          Antivirus
          Spyware Checkers
          ISP Downtime
          Server Problems
          Wireless Downtime during download.
          Site server glitch.

          The best way to overcome these areas is by downloading a Download Manager such as;

          DAP “Download Manager”
          LeechGet 2006 etc

          This should help and both are available free

            hi,

            seems as if bad download got cached at your ISP. Best bet is to use some kind of download manager to download and it will work great.

            thanks!

                Also you might try clearing the browser’s cache (the “Tools/Internet Options…/Delete Files…” button in IE 6).

                  Thanks for the help!!!

                  I download things successfully all the time without difficulty through MSN so I am not sure what is happening here.

                  I do not have Zone Alarm on my system. I use MSN 9 but the biggest change of late has been upgrading to IE 7. I have also recently bought into “Windows Live One Care” for Firewall, Antivirus, Spyware Checking etc.

                  IT FINALLY DOWNLOADED

                  I had been trying to download through MSN many many times but it never got up to 1M. I decided to try through IE7 and it worked (without turning off firewall etc.) but not the first time. It finally downloaded after the third attempts and 2 false readings of ± 2M then almost 3M.

                  Thanks for the mention of the download managers. I will hold those site locations on standby. It seems unfortunate to have to have a third party software to do such work. Others must not have the same problem, not sure why I did for it never happened before. If anyone else does have the problem may the info here will help.

                  Thanks again!!!

                    I’ve found DAP has aquired very annoying bugs since about V7.5 and I’ll be abandoning it forever as soon as I find something else which suits me.
