Error extracting SFX archive

[joakim_46]

PowerArchiver displays error when trying to extract one SFX archive

You can download it here: http://mihd.net/h9w62rf

Hoping to have it fixed :)

[davidsplash]

this is indeed a zip sfx file . though it can only be opened in winrar. winzip sauyes it has faulty zip header. winrar opens it ok.

you can probably use repair to fix it…

[joakim_46]

But why does WinRAR open and extract it correctly without repairing?

[davidsplash]

winrar i think has that feature built in

[joakim_46]

WinRAR does not automatically repairs ZIP archives. It has an option to do that like PowerArchiver.

[davidsplash]

i know that but it can read bad sfx headers and interpritates them so that it can read them.

just something rarlabs told me

@davidsplash:

PowerArchiver’s zip engine does not read bad headers.

It is one inconvinience that can be fixed with repair tool and on the other hand, it is much, much more advanced than one in other products mentioned.
