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.
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
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.
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

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.

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?
Hi,
From where I get PAVD2023.EXE? PowerArchiver 2023 tries to open it.
But it seems, it tries to download PAVD2021.EXE.
Thanks
I noticed that the version of ZPAQ used is older than the latest released 7.15 https://mattmahoney.net/dc/zpaq.html also there seems to be a newer fork that adds several features https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz
It would be useful to implement this latest version (it also maintains the same syntax and behavior as the latest official release if used the -715 flag) and add when opening a zpaq file a choice of the version of the files to show (e.g. as dummy folders represented the various versions present). Since any previous changes are stored with this format, it is possible to extract a snapshot of a certain date/version.
If I open a password-protected zipper file (created with WinRAR but I think that’s irrelevant), open it with PowerArchiver and run “Remove Encryption” on the same file, then reopen it and add a password with “Encrypt Archive,” the resulting archive will be protected with the old ZipCrypto algorithm and not AES as indicated.
(this can be verified, for example, by trying to open the archive files with Windows Explorer, which does not support the AES algorithm)
PA 21.00.18 running on Windows 7 64 bit.
I made a big .PA file and thought I’d check it was made correctly with Menu / Actions / Test.
Discovered:
a) PA always issues a UAC prompt to do this!
b) PA always says there are many errors in PA files.
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
http://www.virustotal.com/analisis/820b2659f2df0c864ecc53279560ec11 -
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 :-).
