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.
Zwischenablage_10-22-2024_01.jpg
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?
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

Hi
I’m trying PA2009 for the first time today (18Jul2009).
I installed it and registered but I was not able to try PRO features because it says my 30 days pro trial is over… :confused:
Anyway, I’d like to know if PRO version allow me to FTP a file (via context menu) without compressing it first.
If not please accept this as a suggestion: right click a file in Explorer (like an image) and FTP it without compression. It’d be really useful.
Thank you in advance!
:)

Hi Carlospr,
With regards to your registration try uninstalling PA, deleting the registry links (if you are comfortable in doing do) then reinstall Beta 1.
Also in reflection of your question on FTP PowerArchiver 2009 Can only FTP Compressed Files.
If you select a standard uncompressed file and right click it to FTP it PA will compress and then transfer over.
This has been discussed in Alpha Testing. And PA Plan to make even more improvments to the FTP Side of things in the future.
The developers just had so many things to work on for the PRO version! as you can probably tell.

sorry, that should not happen and we tripple checked it before… we need to check again :).

As to the FTP - it has fully featured client in the PA window. You can do whatever.
But currently, it will not show upload to FTP for all files in shell extensions…. good idea.
How about Implementing it as Send to> FTP, standard Windows Send to Extension for shell?
-
I uninstalled and installed PA2009 again but this time I didn’t register it and now I can test PRO features. :)
Thank you.
Regarding FTP: since the PRO version has a real FTP client (quite handy by the way) it could be a PRO option to add “FTP It” for any file (a complement to PRO FTP client).
So the PRO version would have “Compress & FTP” and just “FTP It” in context menu for uncompressed files.
I really think it should be a context menu item and not a Send To item.
In resume, FTP any file with context menu support will be a nice addition to FTP client feature in the PRO version.
If you add such feature I’ll probably not use my FTP client anymore. :D

oh right, you registered standard.
I know, thats the issue - we wanted to Remove Pro links for Standard owners so they wouldnt think we are forcing them to buy Pro.
But that of course means Standard registered owners wont be able to try Pro options.
-
it may be a little checkbox in the Setings - “enable Pro features for the trial period”? plus, we can ask this when user registers program
