The online update feature within the program suggests there is a later version than the ‘.17’ available on the web site. But clicking either download or update just reinstalls version .17.
Either there isn’t an update OR
the “download” and 'update" links should be repaired. -

Hi,
When you click on the Buy Now link, you come across four tabs - Home or Work, Enterprise Unlimited, Educational Discount, & Gift Discount.
What is the difference between a licence purchased via Gift Discount and a Home/Work licence?
Also, how can I renew the PowerArchiver Select plan a year after the purchase? Will it remind me automatically?
Best,

I’m running PA 21.00.17 64-bit on a 64-bit i7 desktop with W10 Pro, latest version. This 32gb of installed RAM.
As I use the PA pbs system for a number of scheduled archiving operations throughout the day, PA Starter is set to load and run at system startup.
In the course of trying to identify some causes of slowness and bottlenecks in other processes, I notice that PA Starter (PAS) always runs at between 11% and 15% of CPU (see screenshot), usually at about 12-13%. This is by far the highest demanding process on the system, as shown by Task Manager. In Performance Monitor, PAS Average CPU is 8.32, with every other process at less that 1 i.e. in decimal places only.
Task Manager also shows PAS Power Usage as “Very High”, and is the only process shown thus.
I have looked again at the information about PAS at https://wiki.powerarchiver.com/en:help:details:powerarchiver_starter, which was last modified in 2016. The article states a low memory usage for PAS of 784k, which is fair enough, but it is the large CPU overhead which is of concern.
It is of course possible to change the PAS priority, but this has no effect on CPU overhead.
However, is it possible to change PAS, which is required only at intervals to initiate PA scheduled tasks, from consuming so much system resource for every moment of the day?

I’m experiencing very slow extraction speed of multipart RAR files. For the first part the extraction is super fast but when PA reaches the part2.rar the extraction from there on gets super slow. PA needed for a 6,3 GB multipart archive 30 minutes to extract. I tested then with another program and it just took 70 seconds. I had this slow extraction speed with PA for quite a long time and I always thought that is maybe because of a high compression rate that the extraction would take longer. But it seems that only PA gets that slow.
I have lots of multipart archives that are 10+ GB and with PA it would be really time consuming. Is there any solution to this?

Hi. The “Move” Action seems to be Not Working when used in the Tool – Batch Archive.
Using the Options – Configuration – Compression Profiles ---- I created a Profile with the Action of Move. Also set were Zip, and Method Deflate.
When I use the Tool - Batch Archive – It appears to me that the Action Move does not Move the compressed files (basically add to zip, and delete the added file from original location on the same disk). Zip file(s) are created and look ok.
Typically I on the Batch Archive process – I have selected options to use a Profile with the Move Action.
File’s Current Folder Group files from same folder into same archive Add subfolders to separate archivesMy PowerArchiver version is 21.00.17 .
Can you reproduce ? – Or do you need additional details or information?

Hello,
PowerArchiver Command Line 7 support file greater than 2 Go ?
Thanks
-
i just registered my own copy and i need some help to set it…
if i set the ‘configuration>shell extension>open folder after extracting’ checkbox, after decompress an archive is opened the file manager on that folder but… if somebody is using a different file manager how to open XYplorer or Directory Opus for example and NOT the MS file manager?
consider this as a feature request also if not available within the 2022 version

I am looking for a way to stop the UAC elevation prompt when running Powerarchiver. In an old post about PA 2019, someone asked this and got a response to uncheck “all users” at the prompt but I am not seeing where one can do this. It definitely seems like the way to go though as if I click on “More Details” at the prompt I see that it is trying to run “_pautil.exe /paassociate /allusers /my(long binary string)”. Can you let me know? Thanks.
PS I tried renaming _pautil.exe and this worked, but I don’t know what the consequence of doing this may be so I would like to do this properly, thanks.

Just a question is Ashampoo zip pro 4 built by Powerrachiver as it is very similar and uses the pae encryption.

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.

FTP logon issues!

How the heck do I log on to a FTP server on PowerArchiver 2009?
I see nowhere to enter the address.
I use SmartFTP which works great and easy.
But I thought I would give PowerArchiver 2009 FTP a try.
With SmartFTP all I had to to was have have SmartFTP running and then highlight and copy the FTP address and it would add it to SmartFTP automatically
I am trying to make up my mind if I should upgrade to the Pro version.
-
Did you open FTP Window?
-
-
Did you add a profile by clicking on the Profiles button ?
-
You can click on Profiles and set new profile. Or you can use box right to the profile to enter ftp info!
If you use profiles, you will be able to use them everywhere in PA…

Thats the thing I don’t understand. What is this profile thing all about? And what do I enter?
All I want to do is goto someones FTP site. -
you enter ftp address, what else would you enter? :)

Ok the problem was that those FTP sites that I was trying are down.
Having said that I think I will stick with SmartFTP as it can do way more then Power Archiver can.

definelty, PA FTP is meant for quick upload download, etc, it is not and wont be fully featured ftp client with queues and what not… But is it quite usable, yes…
-
If you do not want to use profiles, you can just enter ftp address, user name, password and click on Connect button just like as in “SmartFTP”. This way of connectings either directly or by profiles is almost the same in SmartFTP.

Yes I understand that.
The thing that seems to be missing form PowerArchiver FTP is there seems to be noway to click on lets say for example a folder with picture and download which ever one you want. You I do this with SmartFTP
Try this FTP for Example
nssdcftp.gsfc.nasa.gov
port 21
When you logon to that FTP address look for a folder called “photo_gallery”
With Smartftp it will show you all the photos in the smartftp interface and you can download what you want.
With PowerArchiver FTP I don’t even understand how to see any of the photos. Its just shows the folder but not whats in them.
-
I connected with username anonymous to a server you specifed, I was able to browse to any folder including photo_gallery and then download and of files/folders. If you want see also a local folder on your computer so you can either use D&D as in other programs - set “Explorer with Folders” Folder’s display style.

I really think PowerArchiver 2009 FTP sucks!
It does not work good and just adds bloat to PowerArchiver.
I can’t see anyone who uses FTP a lot wanting to user PowerArchiver 2009 FTP. It just seems like a big waste to me.
Guess I’ll be sticking to the standard version.
I really think its a mistake to add these so callled Pro features. Because you now have what should be called PowerArchiver 2009 Bloat Edition.
You should keep PowerArchiver light and simple and just focus on Archive stuff.
It does not need all this other extra stuff.
But nothing against you guys this is just one person opinion.

then dont use them and voila. Thats what Standard is there for.
I personally use both ftp and burner myself.
Complete point of Pro edition is to use it for something not specific for PA.
Now, we could have made bunch of things Pro such as Backup, Preview and other things… would that make you any happier? I dont think so.
-
And one more thing after I entered my new user name and password for PowerArchiver 2009 standard Edition how come I still have the FTP option listed?
-

FTP Window or? And where?
thanks.
p.s. more constructive would be to tell us what you want improved in FTP. When it just came out in 99, PA was quite sucky compared to big players then and look at us now :)
-
p.s. none of the basic compression utility features will ever be in Pro only, they will always be in Standard version of PA. Thats our promise :-)
