    • Powerarchiver 2021 incorrectly extract tar.xz file

      E

      Configuration:
      Powerarchiver 2021 20.00.73
      Windows 10 Education 10.0.19042 Build 19042

      When extracting gcc-arm-10.2-2020.11-mingw-w64-i686-arm-none-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz , Powerarchiver wrongly thinks some .exe files have a length of zero:

      Once extracted:

    • Is PowerArchiver 2021 stable?

      BigMike

      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?

    • Bugs I found and wanted to share with the team.

      B

      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.

    • Does PA supports Intel's zlib?

      G

      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.pdf

      Can 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.

    • PA and conflict with Antivirus

      G

      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.

      Tech Support
    • Using the Queue Feature affects Compression Ratio negatively

      G

      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

    • Problems with Color-scheme after upgrade to build 73

      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?

    • PowerArchiver shell extensions possibly crashing windows explorer.exe

      U

      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:

      Description Faulting Application Path: C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe Problem signature Problem Event Name: BEX64 Application Name: explorer.exe Application Version: 10.0.17134.165 Application Timestamp: 4031a9f8 Fault Module Name: StackHash_e78e Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 00000000 Exception Offset: PCH_8D_FROM_ntdll+0x000000000009AA54 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Data: 0000000000000008 OS Version: 10.0.17134.2.0.0.256.48 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: e78e Additional Information 2: e78e327659b46c9a0c6916396b253cbf Additional Information 3: cebf Additional Information 4: cebf952c5db535ae7880488aafce55d9 Extra information about the problem Bucket ID: 1a57e4e784fbc735c231c68bd88581a9 (1311047270476906921)

      I know this is a very nebulous explanation but is there any way to link this up to PA shell extensions as the cause? I can provide the crash dumps and additional information if necessary.

        we need more information on what exactly you did and how.

        It should import last session to the new session - last session is what is read by Windows. So you always have single session that is being read.

          First, I recorded 700 mb of data to a Sony DVD+RW disc, starting a multisession. Several days later I tried to add 1.4 gb of data to the disc, starting the burner from the tray icon, however I did not see the previously burnt data listed in the window - just the name of the disc (“New”). All attempts to import session manually failed - however “use last session” was ticked as I imagine it should have bee. Refreshing did not help.

          I decided to start burning anyway. When the process finished, it turned out that only the newly added data was accessible.

              And one other thing - while I have your attention. Why is there no option to verify recorded data? This is a standard feature (and a very helpful one) of all burning software products. If you do not include it in the final version of PA, users will have to start some other software verifier (like CDcheck for example), but that means buying another license and simply makes no sense…

                    OK, it’s been two weeks now, and I have received no reply to my question.

                    If customers are awarded with silence for investing time into testing for and reporting bugs, they may not deem it viable next time round.

                    :(

                    i suggest that you check with beta 3.

                      And one other thing - while I have your attention. Why is there no option to verify recorded data? This is a standard feature (and a very helpful one) of all burning software products. If you do not include it in the final version of PA, users will have to start some other software verifier (like CDcheck for example), but that means buying another license and simply makes no sense…

                      it is already added to upcoming beta 4 :)

                        Thank you for your answer. I did check and here is the result:

                        1. This time it imports the last session correctly
                        2. However, I found another bug with multisession:

                        • I recorded several files
                        • I set a couple of them to be removed and at the same time added another one for recording
                        • Recording failed before even starting - with an error message
                          3. Other things I have noticed: When selecting files to burn one has a choice of Add folders… and Add files… buttons. Whatever is selected first the window closes and has to be opened again to make a second selection. Isn’t it better for this window to stay open until it is willfully closed (this is how it is done in Ashanmpoo Burning Studio for example)
                          4. There is still no way to verify the recording was correct - a function that is present in all onther recording software that I have tried or I own.

                            Here is my feedback:

                            1. Thank you for including verification! :)
                            2. Also: Having an option to easily set to erase, then burn then verify with just ticks on a single screen is great! :)
                            3. However, the program does not show any progress bars for the erasure and verification tasks when they are ticked at the start screen (not the separate erasure screen). :( Users like to see progress displayed while burning/erasing/verifying and all burning software take this into account.
                            4. When the window is minimized during verification and then reopened before the end of the process, it remains white (blank)
                            5. There is no need for two separate add buttons - one for folders and one for files. Instead, a double click could open folders (to choose a file for adding from those inside), and a single click could just select the folder for adding.
                            What if I want to add 8 folders and 10 files? With the present disposition of the buttons, I will have to go back to the start screen 18 times and maybe every time choose a different button to proceed!
                            6. Burner tray should not open automatically. What if I have changed my mind and want to change the contents right away? Why not open the tray when the burner section is closed or - with a special button?
                            7. And finally: the problem with the simultaneous adding of new and removal of older files for recording still exists. Please, fix that! :confused:

                            Yours sincerely,

                              4. - thank you.
                              7. we can not reproduce this, please include more details.

                              5. Thats how it has to work for now, same system is used throughout PA.
                              6. Thats "requirement: of Windows, otherwise burner will not work properly.

                              3. create wish in wishlist forums please.

                              It is very hard for us to track issue reports where we have several issues in same thread. Please try to open several threads if issues are not the same.

                                  Here is the problem in 7 above:

                                  1. I recorded and verified several files filling in a rewritable CD to the brim - in a single session
                                  2. closed the burner tray went back to start screen and
                                  3. removed a recorded file with the remove button
                                  4. added a new file for burning and started the process

                                  The process ended with an error - just like before (prebeta 3)

                                        I don’t want to sound pessimistic, but this b5 version seems simply unworkable with regard to its burner function. The drag and drop feature is a disaster. I use Servant Salamander v2.5 file manager and I tried to drag and drop files from it for burning by selecting four folders in it and here is what happened:

                                        1. Instead of dropping the four selected folders, it just copied 1 folder and filled it with four copies of the original files.
                                        2. I tried to remove them and add some more files. The program crashed.
                                        3. I started over again. Copied the four folders one at a time. This worked. For some reason though the bar at the bottom of the screen (where empty space is shown) filled up although the files were not big.
                                        4. I removed the files the bar did not clear.
                                        5. I tried to add the files again but the program crashed on me and that was that.

                                          nothing pesimistic there, bug with adding folders… will be fixed next version. Thats why we have betas :-)
