    News/Update on PowerArchiver/Connexion in 2024
    T

    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).

    T

    The Windows 11 context menu for PowerArchiver on normal files (to be compressed, etc.) is now showing multiple tiers with two identical menus. See attached captures of the issue:

    No Icons for SFX-Archives

    Hello!

    I’ve just created SFX-Archives both from ZIP and 7z-Archives and none has an Icon as it seems.
    I use the new version 22.00.11.

    Zip extraction from windows 11 by windows
    D

    Basically I used powerarchiver context menus to zip up a folder then i used windows 11 own built in zip extractor via the context menu to extract all and this is where it throw up a fault. , I’m using windows 11 .

    The file that was a problem in the zip that windows 11 could not extract was iva “babe” cotton.jpg
    I know it has non standard quotes in it.

    However I had winrar on the computer and tried the exact same method with their context menu compress to zip and then I extracted the file with windows own extract all context menu and it had no problems. This indicates that powerarchiver is doing something different with iva “babe” cotton.jpg compressing to zip.

    Then I changed iva “babe” cotton.jpg to iva babe cotton.jpg and compressed it with powerarchiver and then tried it with windows 11 extract all and had no problems. It looks like powerarchiver is doing something to that one file that has quotes in it.

    Please note that powerarchiver extracted both zip files with no problems, only windows built in zip extraction had the fault. Reason I’m letting people know in case they send zip files with special characters in files names to people who do not have powerarchiver.

    When will a fix be implemented?

    Missing Icons

    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

    PA2023 22.00.09 trying to delete a directory from a tar file.
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

    PA 2023 Toolbox - 22.00.09 - Remove archive encryption
    PA_FanP

    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?

    Bug extracting from ZIP etc using Extract here with PA 22.00.09
    Brian GregoryB

    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,

      I am using PA for Outlook, version 2.02. When I embed a picture into a message body and then send the message, the picture is removed from the e-mail, just a blank space remains. This never happened before I installed PA nor it happens now when I uninstalled it. Anyway, I would like to use it as I find it very useful. Any ideas?

      Thanks. Miro

        Hi Miro,

        what images specifically? Let us know of their extension.

        Also, are images getting compressed into zip file or?

          thanks,

          For example screenshots created by PrtScn button and pasted directly into the message body (so there is no extension). I am talking about images that are inserted directly into the message body, not as attachments, so they do not get compressed.

          Some more info: I am using Vista SP1 + MS Outlook 2007 SP1.

              Hi,

              we tried to reproduce this and we could not.
              Maybe it is due to specific setting.

              Can you please export to reg HKCU\Software\PAOutlook registry key, via reg edit, then compress it to zip and send it to our support address (first via form and then reply to email that you get).

              That will definetly help us a lot. And if you could do it relativly fast, we can have solution almost as fast :-).

              thank you!

                Strange, I can’t reproduce it again. I had uninstalled PAO when this problem started to occur and installed it again after your request to export the settings so maybe the reinstallation helped to solve it? Or maybe I use different settings now? I don’t know, maybe the problem will appear again. Anyway, I have sent you the registry settings via support form, hope it helps.

                Thanks a lot!

                  it wont help if it works now :-).

                  I will try with different settings to see if it could be reproduced. If not, when it starts doing it again, let us know and send us those settings.

                              I have the same problem (PAOP v2.02).
                              I use SnagIt to send a screen dump as email.

                              Before sending, the emails looks ok, afterwards the picture is gone. I use HTML email’s.

                              Same thing happens when I past the image form the clipboard.

                              As attachment (image) my registry dump.
