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.
10.20.05 Still loads of bugs in Skin system
-
Sequence of events:
I downloaded all available skins from powerarchiver.com
I install them all one by one like this:
a) Double click the PSF file
b) Say Yes when PA asks whether to install it
c) Say No when PA asks whether to use it now
d) Exit from PAAfter d) PA sometimes crashes. PA seems to include some attempt at catching and recovering from crashes but it doesn’t work in this case and PA gets into a nasty loop which is difficult to get out of. I have to kill it with Windows Task Manager.
Next I experiment with using the different skins. Sometimes PA takes a very long time to change to the skins as I select them. Under Options / Select skin “Default Classic” is still ticked no matter what skin I select! Also PA’s window seems to be getting bigger as I try a few skins. In fact when I go back to my usual default Classic skin the top of the PA window is a long way up the screen and the right hand edge of PA’s window is somewhere off the right hand side of the screen.

Right I’m on 10.20.06 (10.20 RC1) now.
All skins installed without problems.
Coming out of Adrenaline skin back to Default Classic twice caused a crash which the crash catching system changes into three crashes before giving up. It won’t do it again though so I don’t know what’s happened.
Every time I choose Charisma skin the top of the PA window moves up the screen. Same with Colony and with Colony the right hand side moves to the right as well.
After selecting many skins Default Classic is still ticked under Options / Select skin until you restart PA.
