    PA 21.00.18 Action / Test behaves oddly for me on .PA files
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

    Convert archive is incorrect for some WinRAR 5 archives
    W

    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.

      PAOP error: The addin has fired an exception. Invalid filename.

      I have been getting this error a lot recently. It seems to be where there is a space in the name of the file. i.e. scan 6.pdf. I dont recall it appearing in earlier versions.

      Version 10.2.0.5 & 2.00.08
      Name based on first attachment not ticked.

          Same problem here.

          Attachment name was (no quotes) ‘DNB Support.vcf’

          PA v.10.2.0.17
          PAOP v.2.00.08

              That seems to have fixed it.

              I’m curious though, when sending an attachment that isn’t on the excluded list it should always be zip’d right? Obviously excluding if you have ‘Don’t compress’ selected.

              I ask, because for some reason if you send a contact as a .vcf file it does not zip the file. The same holds true if you drop a contact into an e-mail by dragging it into the message or by clicking on the ‘Send\Send as business card’ command from within a contact. I’m not sure I would want it to zip a .vcf file but, it doesn’t appear to be an option.

              Thanks Again

                Microsoft probably doesnt process vcf files as normal attachments. This is good since it then wouldnt work properly in Outlook.

                I am glad it has been fixed.

                thanks!
