New Features poll
-
unicode is not full, but it is fully usable - it wont show properly in all tools, but for 7zip and rar compression/decompression and preview of files, works perfectly, including in shell and filenames… so it is big step forward, not perfect.
I’m looking forward for it ;)
and speed optimization is needed but not to reduce ratio too much:D
or add Super mode, not for fast compression in high ratio like Ultra or Max mode, but for highest compression without any speed optimization tricks :cool:
own command line for 7zip will be good too ;)

there were no changes to compression, it was just optimizations on PA side of things…

A feature I’ve often wished for is an “Open as administrator” addition to the Explorer right-click menu. This would be especially handy in Vista, when you want to extract an archive into a folder that requires administrator rights.

I think one area I would like to see in the future is more intergration with todays Antivirus Software.
The current version of PA Just offers a drop down selection of some of the exe’s which run quick scans.
Idealy, on install or upgrade PA could autoscan for any active antivirus and update it self. Or ask which antivirus you use out of a top 10 List and then apply automatically. You could also “add new Antivirus to list”.

That would be a very good idea as Vista can be a real pain when you want to do something as simple as that.

for any new features for future releases, it is useless to post it here - you need to post it as separate thread as usual.

How could I be so stupid… I thought “New Features poll” might be a good place to suggest new features. How dumb of me.

I absolutely agree with not adding the burn to disk if it’s going to make it slower/fatter.
I personally would like to see a reversed FTP backup utility. I manage allot of websites, and I’m constantly making backups for them. It’ll be nice if I could schedule PA to automatically connect to my site at certain time, and make a backed up “Encrypted” zip on my local machine. I paid money for another tool that does something similar, but not as nice and feature rich as PA.
It seems to me PA has all the key elements already, this feature shouldn’t be too hard to accomplish. I’ll pay extra for this, as long as it’s not another $40.The schedule backup needs some work, It’ll be nice if I could schedule everything from within PA, not having to create the backup scripts, then go into windows scheduler and set it up….I’ve used programs that handle this automatically, so why can’t PA do this, it would add so much worth to yet a wonderful tool. :)
I hope this helps

Just curious, which other backup tool do you use?

Well, I’m currently using “BatchFTP”:
http://www.ensware.com/
Which is very powerful, but a bit buggy, and it lacks that nice intuitive UI that I love from PA.So, to combat the “Not Friendly” UI from BatchFTP, and it’s cost, I decided to give “Cobian Backup Amanita” a try, this is ALLOT easier to use, and very simple, a bit too simple for me, but it gets the job done.
I hope this helps. I still think that PA could replace many of my current wares if it supported this feature.

Based on the input from this poll, we have opened new one for 11.5 release, which is mainly for 2 options that got most votes here - unicode and faster compression…
