    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.

    Convert archive is incorrect for some WinRAR 5 archives
    W

    WinRAR 5 has a rather useful option in some cases, which is to be able to create an archive by replacing identical files with a reference to the first occurrence (hardlink) within the archive.
    In case you choose to convert the file with PowerArchiver to another format, however, the resulting archive does not have all the files. It does not consider those that were present as hardlinks.
    If you do a normal extraction of the RAR archive instead, even with PowerArchivier, all the files are extracted correctly.

      In most applications (such as Windows Explorer) if you double-click on the column separator in the column header the column will auto-size to display the longest item in that column.

      For PA 2007 (10.0.16 - Beta 4, I think) double-clicking the column heading separator does nothing unless the main file listing window is scrolled to the top (ie., the scroll bar ‘thumb’ must be all the way to the top of the scroll bar). This happens in both Classic and Explorer views.
