Spanned zip add dialog

Add an option for DVD sizes in the presets of this list.
Right now the largest it reads is 700MB for CDs.

Might as well add BD and HD-DVD to this as well, though I dont use those personally.

This is an issue because PA uses KiB (2^10), while the DVD standard uses KB. (10^3) (For the difference, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KiB)

This would be really useful for backing up large amounts of data.

If possible, I would like the ability to test (the integrity of a) PAE file, within PA, or better yet, within the shell extension. Not sure whether to create a new thread . . . but one more wish: Allow the user to define a “compress to” option — so if there is some particular format and profile she likes to use, it will be directly available from the shell (without choosing Compress with Options).

This doesn’t seem to be working in 18.01.04 anymore? I just opened a zip file and the folder tree was collapsed again. Just to be clear, archive opens up in “Archive Mode”, I’m using “Explorer View”. I’d expect to get the result on the right side, but actually I see the tree collapsed as on the left side: I think it worked fine in 18.01.03

From what I understand, the only way to add comments to archive types that support it (Zip at least) is to go into the main program and open actions>comment. It doesn’t seem accessible from either the shell (Compress to ZIP + Options) or from the Compression Profiles. I usually add a tagline to my archives, and usually work from the shell extensions since it’s must faster when archiving then using the whole GUI each time. I’d love to see a way to add a default comment via a Profile, and also a way to enter comments into the Add dialogue when doing ZIP+Options from the shell.

Hi, You should add a option that creates independent spanned zip files, based on approximate file size or maximum amount of files per zip. For example, I’m working on a project that requires ~2,000,000 files that are ~272GB in size. The machine I’m working on has only 60GB of free space, so I can’t put all of these files on the machine at the same time. Current span zip option allows me to split the zip files, but is dependent on all of them for extraction. I would like to create 5GB zip files and move them one by one for processing. After processing I’d delete the extracted files and move in the next zip file. I currently use a software called “SpinZip” which does the above, but I’d really like if it could be implemented in PowerArchiver.

Please consider moving the “Action” field to the main Add dialogue box. Since this field retains its settings from the last archive created it has the potential to cause problems. For example, if the last archive created used the move action instead of add you could potentially delete important files the next time you create a zip. Thanks, Jerry S
