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.
Problem with PA 2009 and some files created by zip 3.0
-
PA 2009 opens but does not extract the test zip file attached. The file opens just fine with 7-zip, Info-zip’s unzip (beta) and winzip.
attachment_t_3451_0_test.zip -
Works fine for me.:)

Doesn’t work for me.

Nor for me using GUI or shell but no error message.
Can see filelist inside GUI but view or extract doesn’t work. Test reports all files OK. -
OK. Now it doesn’t work for me too.
I first opened the attached zip file with PA GUI and the file extractet correctly.For few minutes I tried again and I realized, that the extracted file is the zip file that doesn’t work. The file has no ending, so that I don’t tried to open it.
I thought, that the attached zip file was the one that doesn’t work. But it is the file in the zip file.

file is broken zip file that is using zip bzip2 compression not supported by PA 2009. It does not work in 7zip, WR shows error and securezip shows error as well.
Maybe it is due to attachment issues?
In any case, if it is compressed with bzip2 method in zip, it will not work with PA 2009.
-
Yup, it is a bzip2 zip file created by Info-zip zip v3 - we use it to generate these and the corresponding Info-zip unzip 6.0 to unzip these for an in-house app. I can’t open these with PA tho’ - any hope of getting support for these type of files in PA?
-
And here I thought PA could extract anything. ;)
