On installing the program I am getting the error message:
"Unable to execute file c:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\pashutil.exe
CreateProcess failed: code 2
The system cannot find the file specified"
This can’t be right!
I am using the latest official build of Windows 11

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 everyone, some good news about PowerArchiver… I’ve managed to get in touch with the original developer of PowerArchiver, Ivan Petrovic, and he has confirmed that the product is not dead or abandoned, in fact it is still very much alive! There has been a hiatus over the past months for various reasons, but that we should expect to see stuff coming through in the coming months (hopefully the next 2 months).
I had a large .tar file (a backed up WSL) and I want to delete a few directories and their contents from it using PA2023.
PA just destroys the whole archive as soon as I try to delete a directory, leaving it in a state where PA2023 won’t even open it any more.
I tried several times and also tried compressing it to .tar.xz instead - same result.
This should either actually work, or it should say operation not supported and do nothing.
Hello!
The regular version of PA 2023 is out for over 6 months now, but there is still no sign of the portable release.
(When) will there be one?
Thanks!
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
Win 11 64 bit
I have some archives which have been encrypted, using the encrypt option either in pbs or when interactively creating a zip. When I open these, and look at files, I am asked for passwords, which I know, and then can view items or decrypt the files in the archive (tools>decrypt files).
However, when I use the Actions>Remove Archive Encryption (whether using the same zip or asking to write another), the routine shows progress bar to the end, but then just hangs i.e. “OK” never activates. All process information shows this stalled/hanging.
What can I do to sort this out?
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.
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.
PA 22.00.09

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.

How do I extract the archives
-
I have downloaded a group of files that are numbered *.001 thru *.083. These numbers are in the place where extenions usually are. The instructions are as follows: " Just extract the archives and burn/mount with your favorite software "
I have no idea what to to with these files in order to get the *.exe and other files necessary to install this program.
What program do I need to “Extract these files”?
Thanks
-
What happens when you open .001 file with PowerArchiver?
-
Nothing happens.
I have just downloaded power Archiver 6.11 and i don’t understand it.Can you give me a simple A.B.C. recipe of how I can get thru these files to something I can use?
Thanks alot
-
I do not think PA 6 can handle those files. Have you tried the latest version of PA?

That usually indicates a split/spanned archive - I’m guessing that these are all the same filesize (except for the .001 and/or .083 files? Usualy there would be one more with an extension indicating the actual compression format - 7z, rar etc
@JXBlack:The instructions are as follows: " Just extract the archives and burn/mount with your favorite software "
Again there should be a clue to the archive type - can you provide the source site?

Sounds like after extraction you will have an iso file to burn to CD/DVD or similar. Then the utility (?) would installed from that.
Split files could be ACE, RAR, 7Z, Zip (depending on the version used.
Note: PA 6.11 was the last “free” version from 2001. So it will not support “large” archives (>2GB) or the newer compression formats.

Many thanks for your interest in my problem.
I installed Power Archiver 2007 and I got an “extract here” command when I right clicked my mouse. Your were right…it turned out to be a huge *.iso file. 4.3 GB.
Now I have a new problem. My Nero 7.0 Ultra Edition says that it can’t handle an *.iso file greater the 2 GB and says I should “use a UDF file system”. What is a “UDF file system”
I don’t know what to do next?
Should I take this problem to a Nero forum?
Thanks again
-
Depending on your needs, can’t you open the iso file in PowerArchiver as well?
-
You need to use latest version of Nero which probably supports UDF ISO’s. It is basically newer version of ISO format which has support for files greater than 2 GB and unicode filenames.
thanks,
-
Or download imgburn and burn it with that.
-
Power Archiver plus ImgBurn worked.
Thanks to everybody that helped.
