ZIP files áfter having all selected them

Situation now: PA asks for the name of the zip file first, thén users can add files.

Suggestion:
PA to have an option to use Windows Explorer to drag and drop files in the left window panel of PA and thén have PA zip the files.

Also, currently, after clicking on ‘new’ - adding a filename - and thén on cancel at the flwg popup-window (i.e. I have an ‘empty’ zipfile), when dropping files in the left window panel using Explorer after each filedrop PA shows me the drag n drop popup-window asking me they way I want to zip…etc.

Is it possible to add a tag/untag option as to surpress this ?

Hi, You should add a option that creates independent spanned zip files, based on approximate file size or maximum amount of files per zip. For example, I’m working on a project that requires ~2,000,000 files that are ~272GB in size. The machine I’m working on has only 60GB of free space, so I can’t put all of these files on the machine at the same time. Current span zip option allows me to split the zip files, but is dependent on all of them for extraction. I would like to create 5GB zip files and move them one by one for processing. After processing I’d delete the extracted files and move in the next zip file. I currently use a software called “SpinZip” which does the above, but I’d really like if it could be implemented in PowerArchiver.

Recently I tried the explorer view again (you see dir-tree on the left). However it’s pretty useless because you can’t select directories or even right-click on them. I would like to see options to select multiple subdir’s, view the properties, select them for extraction, test or virusscan the files within those subdir’s, etc…

One of the features I use a lot in PA is the renaming of individual files inside the package. Unfortunately this action does not have a key command set for it, which I would like to request for the next version. Note: I do /not/ mean the rename archive (F2) function, but the rename function for individual files which is hidden in the actions menu or file context menu.

@manuangi: Just a little thing…in PA options, one must check the “Compress to ??? + Options” to have the “Compress With Options” voice shown…I think that checkbox in “Options” should go away, and we should have one, maybe @1st place, in “Menu Items”. No? Try it with only one or two formats active. You’ll see why it is this way Sort of “half & half”.

A very useful feature (for the users of the new epub format (which is a simple zip file)) would be if PA allows arrangement of files inside the zip archive (useful after a file modification or addition of new files inside the zip). It would be enough if users could put a specific file (mimetype) first in the zip table or at least if PA doesn’t change the order of files inside the zip (preserve the place of edited files and add the new files at the end of the zip table).
