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.
What kind of archive is .tls?

Hi
Another archive question. Tuneup Utilities uses there own extensions .tls for logon screen packages and .tbs for boot screen packages.
I can open the files in PA, change the contents (image) and save the file again, but does somebody know what archive it really is?It would be nice if PA could show that information, or perhaps it already can?
-
I havent used TU since v2006. But if I remember right…
.TLS (TuneUp Logon Screen)
.TBS (TuneUp Boot Screen)I used to rename the file extensions to .Zip so assuming nothing has changed from v2006 they should still be zip files.
I also (vaguely) remember using the same method to open/modify/save TuneUp visual styles.
Here is a way to find out. Open a TLS/TBS and extract the files to a folder. Create a new Zip and add the files to it. *****Then rename the .zip to .tls and see if TuneUp recognizes the file and is usable.
*****Assumes you enable displaying file extensions in Windows Explorer

Or if you have a utility to show file contents in text / hexadecimal - check if the first two characters in the file are “PK…” [0x504B0304]. PK are the initials of the zip “inventor”.

Thanks guys :)
Yes, it seems to be a regular .Zip file. I had no problem renaming, extracting and zipping it again.
The first two characters in the file was actually “TK” but PA didn’t have problem with that.It’s so nice to be able to use any image for logon or boot screen.

PA is PowerArchiver, and these are PowerArchiver forums :-).
Click on download top right to download and install.
