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.
PA2004–>Error with LHA
-
Whenever I try to make a LHA archive, I get the following error:
Access violation at address 0065F672 in module ‘POWERARC.EXE’. Write of address 0237A86A.
The program then freezes and requires me to kill the task.
Decompressing already compressed LHA files seems to have no problems.
Is there also a way to get backwards compatibility with LZH (LHArc) as well? Thanks so much for all your help in this fine app!
-
Can you please outline step by step what exactly are you doing?
thanks!

Create New Archive

Hello!
We cannot reproduce it - although there was already one post about similar situation, we think there might be something special in your configuration so we will keep eyes open.
-
this is weird bc i did a full format, install windows xp sp2 and i get this error. odd.
-
can you try this is safe more and can you post the file here so we can check it it might be archive problem only specific to that archiver. what archiver created it whats in it what are the filke names of the files inside it size and also date created

Create New Archive
Save as type drop down and use LHA
type in my file name and select savei add the files i like to be incooproated into my archive.
program then exploded as previously described.
The things involved are:
- Temporary Directory
- Path/Filenames/Type/Size of selections to be archived
- Are files “locked” by another program/anti virus
Can you give more details of 1) and 2) ??
Does it happen if you try to archive (LHA) a single file? -
This only happens for LHA archives. Single file or multiple files. I have not tried safe mode. This has happened when nothing was installed other than windows sp2 and PA2004.
-
The issue will be fixed in upcoming 9.1 - this week!
