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.
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.
Some missing things

Hello,
In the PowerArchiver 2007 10.00.22 Beta 6,
are some missing things ;)1. the Self-Extracion Maker (form menu)
-now we have more options, but why I need to set it, all the time when I make SFX from compressed files,good thing that will be to set deufalts options for this in PA settings,
because I want to create SFX like it was in PA2006 (only 1 click:D)
and I dont want to test it, when I create it, I was very annoying
**
2. the SFX wizard**
there are some missing options when we choose SFX format
missing are options Deflate 64 in Zip and Ultra mode & soild archiv in 7zPASSWORS ARE NOT MASKED !!!
when I wrote itand why Is always set options to execute and test create archive, its very annoying thing,
mayby the PA2007 will be remember my last settings for that3. hmm, and some wired thing :p
When I compres folder with some files like
archive.7z
pictures
1.jpg
2.jpgand next I create SFX from it
and unpack it to desktop, the PA2007 unpack only files without folder, but folder was included in this archive
-

I can confirm Virtual_ManPL’ #3, but #'s 1 and 2 are confusing. Virtual_ManPL, could you please provide precise steps to reproducing your 1 and #2 issues? Thanks

Issues 1 & 2 are no real issues, but anyoing things.
**
Issue 1**
When, I create SFX (with right mouse click) from some compressed file I always must to set options for it,But it should will be like in the old PA2006 (1 click and I make SFX),
and all Options for this SFX like Deufalt UnZip folder, File conflict should will be in the main PA2007 settings,
because I dont to always set unzip to current directory and prompt user before overwrite.
Second annoying thing is, the PA2007 always asked me to test created SFX,
But its should be options to disable this message.**Issue 2
**When I make SFX with SFX Wizard,
there should be added options like
use Deflate 64 in Zip or Ultra mode & soild archiv in 7zand when I write password for this SFX archive the password is not masked
and there we have like in SFX maker (from right mouse click) very annyoing message to execute and test create archive
but I should have options to disable this annyoing message
