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 2007 beta, 10.10.24

hey guys,
after installing pa 2007 beta 10.10.24 german version on a german vista business, we encountered some problems:
-
we can confirm, the context menue’s in english and - what’s even worse, they don’t work… right click on a zip archive and select any powerarchive item does not result in any action.
-
some links within the computer configuration are blocked, right click on computer - properties: the link “device manager” and “change product key” and some more are somehow blocked.
our testemonial was taken place on two different computers with fresh installed vista’s, no other pa was installed before.
after deinstallation of pa 2007, everything works fine again.
any hints ?
thanks in advance
drizziaddon: trying to configure shell extensions from within pa 2007 seems not to have any effect on the shell extensions.

Hi,
we got report about shell ext but I am not sure about device manager. PowerArchiver does nothing to block Device manager?
Are you sure it is because of the PowerArchiver? It could be coincidence. We will check it out on our Vista computers.
thanks,

hi ho :-)
thanks for the quick respond.
we got report about shell ext but I am not sure about > device manager. PowerArchiver does nothing to block > Device manager?
try the way i described - right click on computer, properties. on vista computers, you will see on the left side a link to device manager, this one stops working as soon as powerarchiver is installed. same to the change product key…
Are you sure it is because of the PowerArchiver? It >could be coincidence. We will check it out on our Vista >computers.
yes, because we can reproduce this problem.
greetings

Are you logged in as administrator? Device manager is only option there that requires Administrator level access. I have no problems accessing it in Vista, with PA installed?
thanks,

hi spwolf,
yes i am administrator but uacl ( don’t know the english expression for it) is activated…
greetings

Can you try with english version of PA? Please make sure you restart computer after installation.
thanks,

hi spwolf,
the english version works fine… all problems are gone…
so it should a problem with the international one.
please feel free to inform me as soon as you need some more test on the international one.
greetings from germany
