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).
New version:
PowerArchiver 2023 - 22.00.10:
Download:
https://u.powerarchiver.com/pa2023/powarc220010.exe
New build for some bug fixes and issues - full list to come with new update. Please test and see if you have any issues.
Thanks everyone for your assistance!
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
344c6c52-f03f-407b-ad76-8130b31936bb-image.png
PA 22.00.09 shows a nag screen, when I try to open some setting windows. I have already PA 2023 Toolbox and PA shows, that it’s licensed in the info dialog.

Some labels in the help toolbar are not translated:

I’m looking forward to deploying PowerArchiver 2023 to my users. Can you tell us when the MSI will be available for download and distribution?
Thanks.
Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1165/
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1164/
As it seems, that PowerArchiver and PACL use the 7zip libraries, could you please update them to the latest version?
Still virus warning from AVG 8
-
Sorry about reopening this thread again.
PABURNTOOLS.EXE is cleared in the latest AVG 8 (270.6.6/1623) update, but I still get a warning about PAVD.EXE.
I have tried to send the file for analysis but it always fail. Maybe thats because it’s the free version?
-
nobody ever said there was an pavd.exe warning. Eh.
We need to report that again. Anything else?
-
No, thats the one I get warnings about.
As I am using the free version of AVG I’m not able to report the problem? I have tried to send pavd.exe for analysis several times but it always fail.
My workaround right now is to exclude the Powerarchiver folder.
It would be nice if you could make Grisoft aware of the problem.Otherwise I’m very satisfied with PA 2009. I really like the modern toolbar.

already reported last night, did not receive anything back.
False virus reports are not our issues but issues from AV vendors who dont do their jobs too well :)
-
Yes, I know that it’s not your issue, but if you rather than me, emphasize the problem I’m sure they will do something about it.
-
did this get solved?
-
Nope, I still get a warning about PAVD.EXE, and I’m still not able to send the file for analysis.
But as I have the PA folder excluded in AVG it doesn’t bother me to much.
I check from time to time by copying the files to another folder, as I did right now. -
any updates?
-
Checked all PA executables today, PAVD.EXE still gets a warning.
Maybe I should change to another anti-virus program, AVG is not the only free one but I like it.Anyway PA is working very well and I am glad I paid for the pro version. Burning is little bit slow but everything I tried works well.
-

That’s what I did so I can’t check now.
This “problem” was not the only reason, however, that would be off topic… -
should have been fixed by now?
-
Sorry but no, I still get a warning for PAVD.EXE
Win32/NSAnti
AVG 8.0.169 / Virus DB 270.7.0/1683Latest PA installed.
-
grrr
-
Looks like PABURNTOOLS.EXE is showing a false positive Again.
-
what about pavd?
-
I’m new to Power Archiver so im using a evaluation copy, so i don’t think i have that file? Wheres it located?
It wouldn’t stop me from buying, but it might to others?
-
it is only for registered users - can someone else chime in for pavd.exe please? I see I need to send them an email again…
-
As to the buying, unfortunatly it is not up to us. If AV company keeps repeating the same mistakes, i think it tells more of their product and question is what else will they get wrong?
-
I’m not getting anything on pavd but paburntools is definitely coming up as infected with Win32/NSAnti. That’s with the latest free version of AVG.
-
thanks, will (once again) email them… anyone else sending report to AVG will be helpful as well.
thanks,
-
Just to confirm “false positive” - it is only AVG reporting problem see

they are month behind on their support emails, we just got back response from them about pavd.exe that was sent in 30 days ago :-)
-
I’m getting this as well. I pay for AVG so should I report this to see if they will fix it for a paying customer? And yes I’m getting it as well.

more reports the better… although it didnt help last time…
-
I have been in daily contact with them since last week when I reported the problem. Today I have received the confirmation that it will be fixed with the next virus database update.

Oops:
http://www.itworld.com/windows/57647/flawed-avg-antivirus-update-cripples-windows-xp-pcsTheir latest update seems to have indentified some Windows files as false positives, so heads up people who have AVG as your XP will not start anymore :-).
