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

Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:

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.
Question to 4Gb ZIP archive options
-
what happened if you forget to set the 4gb checkbox while creating an archive larger than 4GB?
-
It would create an archive in pkzip 2.04g format which means that it would be an bad archive. Keep in mind that the size of files does not matter since for example you could compress 10 GB file to 3 GB and it would work fine - just in case you were thinking about that :-).
We will probably enable this option by default in the future major release…

thsi would be great ;)

And what will happen if you use more then 4 GB without having a file that size? Are there any sideeffects which I should keep in mind?
If there are no side effects, if it is only a kind of upgrade, why is there an opportunity to switch? -

If the flag is NOT set and the resulting Zip archive is 4GB (or more) it will be invalid.
So you will not be able to extract from it.The size of files being archived do not matter, it is only the size of the resulting Zip file that matters.
-
If the flag is set, and the size is less then 4 GB, are there then side effects? What does that flag, does it increase the size, does it doublecheck?
-
Flag makes PA create archives in PkZip 4.5 format, and a lot of other archives can not read files create with 4.5 format…
