See the, supposedly, blank space where the green box is? It’s like that in Modern Light theme too. I can toggle it, but it’s missing text or shouldn’t be there I guess?
Thanks :)

For some reason, the PowerArchiver functions in the Windows 11 context menu no longer work after the last Windows Update. Only the functions in the classic context menu function as they should.
I’ve tried uninstalling PowerArchiver and using RevoUninstaller to remove all bits and pieces that were left behind and did a clean install of PowerArchiver, it didn’t fix the issue. Other items in the Windows 11 context menu work.

W10 Pro 22H2 - 64 -bit
PA 22.00.06 (PA 2023)
It has been the case with previous versions of PowerArchiver, but I had hoped that the latest might behave differently. Not so, I’m afraid.
I have, for various obscure reasons, created a few .pa archives, mainly in the hope that they will save me some more space. From time to time, I use the “Test” option to check that important archives are OK and uncorrupted.
With every .pa archive I’ve tested, the process runs through OK but then reports that there are errors. This is always the number of files in the archive e.g. if 11 files, then 11 errors reported.
In the .pa, I can:-
preview the files (usually PDF) extract some or all files and look at or use them convert the .pa to a .zip or .zipx archive, which then works fine and tests without errorsIs it the case that the Test routine isn’t designed for .pa archives, or is there another reason? Although the .pa seems to function properly, despite the test reporting errors, I would like to be sure that every .pa is OK and not “broken”.
Some of the .pas are quite old and produced with earlier PA versions (they are truly “archives”). If I extract all the files in the old .pa, create a new, fresh .pa and add back the files to that, then test the new, no errors (at least in the .pa I’ve tried this on) are reported. This would suggest a mismatch between old .pas and newer versions of PA itself.

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. -
I installed powarc-macos20001.dmg and I am attempting to create a password protected zip file. When I create the zip in the UI it doesn’t write the file to the destination folder. No error message is displayed. The PA app has full folder permission. I’m new to Mac, but have been running PA on Windows for a long time.
Will there be a new version of the Mac version soon?

Hi! I came across an issue when I tried to uninstall PowerArch 2013. I got an error “The specified account already exists” which broke the process. I got the same error when I tried to install the current version, without uninstalling the previous one.
So I can’t uninstall and I can’t install PowerArchiver. Any suggestions? OS Windows 8.1 x64.Dariusz

Re: Explorer.exe Crash on right click
This appears to be happening again with the Power Archiver 2022 shell extensions.
When I have Use Explorer Shell Extensions enabled in Power Archiver Configuration and right-click on c:\Users\username\Start Menu, (hidden Junction file), File Explorer crashes.
I have version 21.00.15 (03/2022) 64-bit installed in Windows 10 Version 21H2 (Build 19044.1826).

Powerarchiver 2022
Right-click and select Encrypt on a folder does not work.
Although it says it encrypts, there is no encrypted file in the destination folder. -
The online update feature within the program suggests there is a later version than the ‘.17’ available on the web site. But clicking either download or update just reinstalls version .17.
Either there isn’t an update OR
the “download” and 'update" links should be repaired. -
Hi Dear,
Cannot login and request resend license code for my fd
Two new bugs to report.
-
When renaming a file in a large archive, if you press ‘enter’ twice, or click ‘ok’ once and then click it again, it will generate an error and sort of crash. Its like it somehow has already started the rename process, yet the controls let you try and start it again, and then it crashes. I say sort of, because the program stays open and the archive stays open, but you get an error message, and the listing of the files in the archive disappears from onscreen. I also say ‘large’ archive, as you only get time to try and click twice if you are dealing with a large archive. If it is a smaller one then the process completes and removes the window before you would have a chance to click a second time (although on slower computers this would probably be just as big a problem on the smaller files). I found this out because I had pressed ‘enter’ and then when it took a bit with the window still sitting there, I thought I must have hit ‘shift’ by accident or that maybe ‘enter’ was not accepted, so I then clicked the ‘Ok’ button, and was greeted with the bug. I then tried doing a similar rename, but just clicking the “Ok” button twice, and it does the same thing.
The second bug is concerning password entry. If you drag and drop a file onto a open copy of Power Archiver you will get the “Drag and Drop” window. This particular ‘add’ window seems to have a bug in the password entry validation scheme. If you select any of the encryption methods, and then enter a password, but then re-enter it in the second dialog box incorrectly, it goes away without warning you in with a dialog that the passwords don’t match. I found this out because I was trying to add a file to an archive with password protection and accidentally typed the password wrong in the re-type window, and then clicked to add the file to the archive, whereupon I got the warning that I had selected an encryption option yet had not entered a password, as it had correctly discarded the mismatching passwords, but had not warned me. I have tried other methods of invoking the ‘add’ window, and it seems that only the ‘drag and drop’ version of the ‘add’ window has this bug concerning entering non-matching passwords while trying to apply encryption.

thanks - in the future, please report bugs in separate threads, and name the thread accordingly so we can easily indentify which is which…
thanks!

Sorry about posting both in one thread, I didn’t realize that it would be a problem. If these should be in different threads though, you will have to split them - as I don’t seem to be able to delete or rename a thread I have started. Also, do give feedback once you have examined/fixed the bug. Its nice to be able to track the progress of things and its interesting to find out what the underlying issues were in the first place.
-
NP, just for the future…
-
thanks!
The issues should be fixed in 10.1.
-
Please check prerelease version 10.1 B1:
http://www.powerarchiver.com/test/alpha100/powarc1010b1.exeAnd let us know if this fixes your issue.
thank you!

Well, I can happily report that both bugs are fixed in that latest build that you left a link to. Sorry for taking so long to notice your post! Anyhow, both bugs are properly squashed, and that is good! However, now I have noticed something else odd about the rename dialog. It now correctly disables input once you have begun a rename operation, BUT if you are simply changing one character of the existing name, the file won’t get renamed. If I were to try and rename a file called “beta1.exe” to “beta2.exe” it would not rename it. But if I changed more than one character, such as renaming it to “bEta2.exe” then it would work. Anyhow, thanks for fixing the first two bugs, and good luck squashing this last annoyance.

Thanks!
The issue should be fixed in Beta 2.

This should be fixed in latest version:
