Hi,
I just saw, that on the Website, PowerArchiver 2021 20.00.73 is advertised as latest version. (Actually, the downloaded version says, it’s 20.00.70 in the about dialog)
But it still comes with the “red icon set” for preview versions and has some known unfixed bugs, as I read here.Is it sufficiently stable to be used on production systems?
Kind regards

Hi I recently bought PowerArchiver and found some bugs and issues that I hit testing some of the features out.
If you are doing a backup and on the compression options screen its default is compression format is PA with no option to change disk spanning. If you change to 7-zip you can change disk spanning. If you change the disk spanning then move back to PA format the field for disk spanning disables but the option stays set to what you changed it to. When you do a backup it will use PA with files spanning but PowerArchiver says that its not a valid format when you open it. If PA can’t really do file spanning then this screen is allowing it.
I have attached an image where the progress bar is in the middle of the CD/DVD/BD Tools screen.
alt text
I have a 7-Zip file I created using the backup tools doing an increment backup. It opens and extracts just fine but if you using the Test option PowerArchiver locks up. Link to file: Backup-2021-02-05-20-35-36 TEST LOCKUP.7z
On any Zip/PA/7-Zip process the pause and cancel buttons do not work. You have to hard kill the entire application to get out.

There would be many of us with Intel Processors.
and they have their own optimized zlib algorithm, which can result in more efficiency if used combined with their hardware processor.
Reference:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/zlib-compression-whitepaper-copy.pdfCan we get the same Functionality Under Hardware Acceleration Feature?
Zlib is not the only feature that intel has included with their processor, there’s many, which if combined can result in efficient and better compression ratios.

Hi,
After the batch archiving is complete, and if I click on whitespace of the PA app, I get this error.
PA Batch.png
I did check for ongoing process and ensured no archives were corrupt, It seems like activity did complete successfully but the error is shown for no reason, and only after clicking the whitespace.
Please see if this can be removed.

I’m using the Kaspersky Total Security.
I have configured PA as exclusion as followed:
PA Exclusion.png
and also is set us trusted application
PA Trusted Application.png
Scenario:
My Antivirus likes to scan for everything, and it’s safeguarding behavior is to prevent the access to the file until the file is properly scanned for.
The issue:
PA when losses the access to file, it is stuck, consumes Resources, and never completes the process or throws any error
Recommendation:
PAStarter should also work as PAMonitor:
There should be a monitoring process, at least if I’m using queuing feature, that should check for never ending compression processes and terminate them so the queue can be little bit automated.Also,
There should be multiple attempts at retrying if PA loses access to or is denied, instead of having to see process was stuck for longer duration.Or, better, save the parameters I used for keeping the files in compression, and automatically restart the whole compression process after termination the same, of same folders and files set, this should happen in case if compression was stuck.
-
If you use Queue Feature, you are not saving on space, you are just squeezing less.
Here’s explaination:
https://youtu.be/XcxG2wxyink
I did test the same on multiple files, and of different types.
It does have large difference for each large file you are trying to squeeze.
Folders with multiple files, just have no benefits if you use Queue Feature

Hello!
I am using the portable version of PA2021. After switching from build 58 to 73 I have problems with the color-scheme:
While 58 behaves like expected and showed everything in light or dark colors according to the settings, 73 always shows the lower part of the window in dark colors, no matter whether I select automatic, light or dark.
This happens on a clean installation of 73 as well as on an update from build 58. I have attached two images generated on the same machine at the same time with the same settings. The upper shows build 73, the lower 58. Is it a bug or some changed setting I miss?
Thanks for help!

Hi.
I currently own the PowerArchiver Select - lifetime free upgrades and support for PowerArchiver Toolbox English license.
This license is active on 1 device. Does the license allow me to activate PowerArchiver on a second device that I own? Or do I need a separate license for that?
Thank you ! :)
-
Hello!
While the installable version of PA 2021 has already received two updates and is at version 20.0.73 the portable version still remains at the initially released build 58. Are there plans to update that version, too?
Thanks for a reply! -
I’ve been dealing with an intermittent explorer.exe crash for 5-6 years now. It happens randomly and will usually occur multiple times within a single session of an hour or two on my machine when manipulating files through Windows Explorer. explorer.exe is the only thing that ever crashes, so it’s not hardware IMO. I’ve done all hardware diagnostics and RAM is good. I’ve even swapped out motherboards with different brand and even the exact same one and it still crashes. sfc /scannow indicates system files are fine. I’ve done multiple reinstalls of the OS with no positive results. This crashing has happened on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10 64-bit. It seemed to get more frequent with Windows 10 after upgrading last year. I’ve also been using PowerArchiver throughout that time period (upgrading over time with new releases). I recently disabled all non-Microsoft extensions via ShellExView and saw no crashes for about 10 days, which is really unusual. I turned back them all back on after 10 days and saw another explorer.exe crash within the hour. So I disabled all 32-bit extensions and saw another crash. Following that I disabled all the PowerArchiver shell extensions and haven’t seen a crash after a day of heavy usage manipulating files within Windows Explorer, which doesn’t happen for me. The crash dumps I’ve captured don’t seem to indicate PowerArchiver is involved but I have a hunch it has something do with PowerArchiver shell extensions. The system even feels smoother with the PA extensions disabled. Windows 10 reliability monitor always has the same type of problem:

I can provide the crash dumps and additional information if necessary.

When you select “Deflate (.zip, compatible)” as the method, it still converts the archive to a ZIPX format.
-
Would like to see uha archives supported compression as well as extraction. I use this all the time and it is a very good compression format
-
In windows 10 you can right-click and select send to and the compressed zipped folder and the zip folder will contain the name of the last selected file.
Does PowerArchiver have a similar function?
Tom
-
Converting an archive to .zip (using both the “Deflate (.zip, compatible)” and “Store” compression methods) always creates a .zipx file instead.
pa-convert-zip-1.jpg
pa-convert-zip-2.jpgUsing the “Store” method sometimes creates a .zip file; I have seen it happen just now, but I cannot reproduce it.

What is planned beyond Beta 1?
We plan no major features for Beta 2 and Final version, with exception of improved 7zip engine.With Beta 1, we have already improved support for 7zip - updating of non solid archives, better unicode support, better looking and acting dialogues and generally faster speed means that it is one of the best parts of PA 2009.
Up to the final version, we expect PA 2009 to be the best 7zip GUI on the market. There are actually some surprises coming in that regard so stay tuned!
-
OMG, price hike for English version! OMG Pro version is so expensive!
Inflation sucks. With expansions that we have had this year, and opening of our European office, most of our employees are now in Europe. That means that we are hurt more with low USD value and we had to respond with slight raise in the price of PA 2009 - which we hope we provided enough features to justify. Pricing has actually gone down for customers and small businesses buying 2 or more licenses and gone up for large corporations.
And you know what? Buuu-f-huu. We dont like inflation and we buy gas, food, juice as everyone else.
So we decided to offer limited time 15% discount on all PA 2009 preorders, which makes PA 2009 currently cheaper than ever. Not only that, but as part of that offer, all future upgrades are free for everyone, including business companies.
And for our European friends (hello germany), PowerArchiver is cheaper than ever at 17 Euro with this offer.
-
How long will the Beta last?
We expect it to last for 2-3 weeks. Amount of beta releases depend on number of issues found. We actually tested it really well and we dont expect many issues but you never know.
-
So whats the big deal with PA 2009?
Except that we worked our behinds off, there are many big improvements.
For standard version (didnt lose any features of course), big things are 7zip, rar/zip speed, interface improvements, preview window (which is pretty cool) and a lot of other things.
Pro gets Ftp Client window, Burner functions and some more advanced backup features.
Is PA 2009 bloatware now?
We asked our alpha testers and they said not! They should know, they have been using it for quite a while. In many ways, PowerArchiver is faster than ever - zip, 7zip and unrar are all faster, especially under Vista. Burner is not only an separate application but it is also pretty lightweight itself and quite usable tool.How is PA 2009 distributed?
Both versions are in the same installer. If you are using trial version, you can try Pro features for 30 days and if you actually register Standard version, all Pro features and nags will dissapear and you dont have to look at any Pro version nags. -
Here is one screenshot to see new preview, burner, backup list and new black skin for PA 2009:

Discount is between 50% and 80%, thus giving you access to Professional version
for as little as 6.99 USD for 1 license.p.s. 80% discount means it costs $6.99 to upgrade to Pro version.
False. When I try to buy the upgrade, it says I’m eligible for an 80% discount, but it shows the upgrade price as 6.39 EUR, which comes out to about $10.13 USD. I am in the US.
-
woot!
got mine and it was $7.00 something well spent in my opinion.
great work guys…:) -

why are you trying to buy international version? If you need english, you need to get english version.
Unless you originally purchased International version.
Pricing is different for both versions, and both get 80% discount compared to their original price.

Hi,
Well I have just pruchased the upgrade today, must say that PowerArchiver is as stated the Ultimate Archive Utility for Windows.

With the discount it would just be rude not to upgrade to Pro.

why are you trying to buy international version? If you need english, you need to get english version.
Unless you originally purchased International version.
Pricing is different for both versions, and both get 80% discount compared to their original price.
All I’m doing is navigating to https://www.conexware.com/shop/index.php and clicking the “Upgrade” link. There is one and only one such link under the “Available Upgrades” section I see when I go to that page. The product I am eligible for an 80% discount on is shown as “PowerArchiver 2009 Pro with Outlook Plug-in International License”. There is no English-only product shown.
It says I bought “PowerArchiver 2003 Personal License”, which is accurate. I still have my email receipt, and it does not say that it is the international version, nor do I know why it would have been. I lived in the US when I placed that order.
I also have an email showing the registration code for PA 2007. That email says “As you placed your order for English-only, this code will only work with the English language version of PowerArchiver 2007.”
Can you help me?

We just figured it out for someone that emailed support - for PA 2001 - 2004 Personal licenses, only store upgrade was International. This was done because then we didnt have English or International so those licenses, when it comes to right to use PA Standard, are international (they can use any language version). In all the rush to finish it up we forgot that the pricing is different.
If anyone purchased International upgrade for PA 2001-PA 2004 Personal and wanted English Only, please let us know if you want an refund for that purchase
And it has been fixed now for those users.
thanks!
-
p.s. please let us know if it works - it should show both English and International under 80% upgrades now… Thanks!

I am one of those affected by this. No worries though as it was still a good price for the upgrade.

Now it shows I am eligible for an 80% discount on the international version, but not the English version. When I click the Upgrade link for the English version, the price shown is $34.95 USD.

I am using PA2009 Standard is it worth upgrading for me to the Pro version if I am using vista as Vista uses Windows Mail and not Outlook and I use an FTP client allready called FlashFXP, or will it still be worth an upgrade to pro?

try it out and see… Most valuable thing for me would be Burner and Advanced Backup features… FTP Client is not there to replace standalone ftp applications, but an easy way to download, upload backups and whatever else you need to do quickly.
But PA 2009 Standard kicks azz too, and all of the basic compression features are in there.
-
I have also purchased the upgrade to pro for $6.98 for the English version. I live in Hazlet, NJ. The only feature I can’t use is the Outlook Plugin because I only have Windows Mail, not Outlook. Even after purchasing the upgrade to the Pro version I still don’t have PACL v5.0 in my account.
-
Same problem here, still cant see PACL 5 in my account. Or do the PACL 4 Reg-Codes still work?
I like to hear about the continued development of PA and purchased a 2009 Pro Licence (Yay, 80% off ^^) right away.
By the way, changing the international orders to Euro was nifty, very nifty. So I had to pay ~10.14 USD instead of 6.39 USD (or 6.39 EUR instead of 4.03 EUR). I hoped to take a good benefit of the weak USD course, but 10 EUR is not too expensive for this upgrade ^^

PACL5 will be avail. in account once it is out as final.
International versions have had their own pricing for past 3 years, this year we actually lowered it a bit compared to last. But most of us get paid in Euros so low USD is actually very bad for us.

But I can download v5b2. Anyway I figured out my PACL4 codes still work with this version, so theres no need to have it in account.

I allways thought ConeXware is a completly US-based corp until yesterday as I received the update notification for PA 2009. But so it’s fair to pay in EUR (which I have already done). Thanks for the info.

yeah, it does not make sense to list PACL beta separatly as it is free anyway to licensed users.
As to the USA, right now >70% of us work from Europe, even though ConeXware, Inc is California based company.

Bummer, all those ‘business trips’ to California ;). I guess somebody has to do it.

As a part of this special limited time offer, all users will get free lifetime upgrades for their new orders.
hmm… i’m using pa since version 2002. and my bill states already:
1 : 1870PA002 : PowerArchiver 2002 Personal Lifetime License : Licenses : Key
so… how long is a lifetime considered to be… :confused:
just found that there is the option for the free update at the bottom of the code-list. so cheers and thanks again for the great program.
but i think that pa + outlook plugin is more than worth the $7, so i’ll start a new life today :)

business customers from PA 2004 got 2 upgrades for free, which is the difference in this offer. Personal license customers always got free lifetime upgrades.

I’m a bit confused about the Outlook plug-in and PA 2009.
The Outlook plug-in is free for PA 2007 users. But when ordering PA 2009, you have to choose between Standard Edition or Pro Edition with Outlook Plug-in. Does this mean the Outlook plug-in only works with PA 2007 and PA 2009 Pro and not with PA 2009 Standard and thus now the Outlook plug-in became a Pro feature only?

If you purchased PA 2007 or any previous version of PA, PAOP will work with every version of PA 2009 and every future version of PA.
If you purchased PA 2009, PAOP will work with Pro version only.
I hope that explains it.
thanks!

Big thanks to all of our users. Many, many have upgraded to Pro version and liked its features.
As promised, we are extending this special offer for next 2 weeks, it will end October 10th.
Here is new thread created for that offer specifically:
http://www.powerarchiver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3358As PA 2009 is officially released, this thread will be closed. Translations are coming soon (all should come within month), and of course, this is not end of PA 2009. Those who have been with us for a long time now (10 years!!!) know that we will have at least 4-5 updates before PA 2010, a lot of them being feature updates so please continue writing on wish list and reporting bugs.
We have some pretty big new features planned for next 6 months and you guys WILL LOVE THEM.
Once again thanks everyone!
