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.
WinRAR 5 has a rather useful option in some cases, which is to be able to create an archive by replacing identical files with a reference to the first occurrence (hardlink) within the archive.
In case you choose to convert the file with PowerArchiver to another format, however, the resulting archive does not have all the files. It does not consider those that were present as hardlinks.
If you do a normal extraction of the RAR archive instead, even with PowerArchivier, all the files are extracted correctly.
PA2010 bug\spanned archive

I just noticed this with PA2010 Pro 11.50.20. After creating a spanned archive I get an error when trying to extract it.
I created the archive using the following settings…
All seems well until I try to extract it…
When I try to open the archive I get this….
If I open the archive by clicking on the smallest file it opens fine, but I still cannot extract it properly…
The PP presentation works fine and is not corrupted. I’m using vista 64 with office 2007. Thanks.

ok so when you open it with open button instead of doubleclick what happnes? Works?
-
If I open the archive from PA and select the first file it opens fine, if I select any of the other parts it won’t open and no error message is shown.

Hello,
There are (were) few problems. We hopefully detected and solved them all:
- Creating spanned zip archives had problem - corrupted spanned archive or archives with wrong naming were created
- Extracting spanned zip archives had problem - crc error while extracting correct spanned archives
- we now added a feature to detect “last” - smallest part of zip archive and open that part when you try to open any part either in main interface using “open” button, or in Windows Explorer.

Thanks. :D Looking forward to the next beta.
