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

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.

PA can't extract; xxx does :|
-
download the new version of PerfectDisk, the defrag utility:
http://ftp.raxco.com/pub/download/pd70/pd70ds.exethen try to extract it with PA (9.0.2.1)…it will fail, saying: “Error in ZIP structure. Continue?”
the operation won’t go on.when you use xxx, it will smoothly extract the file…
bug?

Please try not to advertise our competitors… :p
and thanks, we will check it out…
p.s. this is possibly zip sfx with bad (non-updated) header that PA can not read due to… bad header… we will still check it out

happy to hear that…unfortunately I’ve got no access to alpha builds…so I must wait for the bug to be fixed in a public release…

another similar issue found.
download the latest eTrust EZ antivirus here:
ftp://213.35.101.4/pub/myeTrust/apps/EZAntivirus.exeit’s again a self extracting cab archive.
try to extract it wit PA…and the operation will fail.
Win***, on the contrary, makes it smoothly.are you going to fix it in the next release?
check it out…and thank you! -
Not to worry, it’s already been fixed in the alpha. :)
-
just to state that with the latest 9.10.06 the two files I mentioned here are correctly decompressed! :)

an ealier version of pa before it was shareware had a feature which detected the struction of a archive and told you what it was. i tried it on the file and it correctly told me ir was a cab sfx
thought this feature should be included with pa again

Isn’t that just under properties? Although, I do agree there should be more information listed. But, that’s on the wishlist.

Yes, it is unrelated post, however FYI that feature was removed because it did not support a lot of newer archives not did that component have support for Delphi 5 when we moved to it long, long, long time ago :-).
Problem has been solved, I am closing the thread.
thank you,
