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.
Multi-part RAR file bug 2010 b1

Hi,
Just come across this.
Double clicking on any part of the multi-part archive (.rar, .r01, .r02 etc) should open the acrchive.
However, I have to double click on the .rar file, trying it with any of the .r?? files brings up a Drag and drop box.
Cheers

The developers are aware of this and a fix is forthcoming.

it seems to work with part3.rar, etc in upcoming release…

I don’t know how it is from a programming point of view, but could *.rar files be treated differently to *.r01, *.r02 etc?

I have also had the same box appear when right-clicking on an EXE file (self extracting installer) and choosing ‘open with PowerArchiver’ (I do this quite often).

Edit: The above was a 40MB file, just had it happen with a 2MB file (of a different format that I can ALWAYS examine…happy to send it to you if you wish - it’s legit from MSoft).

please check with official beta 1, and let us know if this has been fixed… thank you!

Can now open the MSoft file. Will check on a multi-part RAR file the next time I get one.
Have the previously reported graphical issues with the gray column headers under XP been noted by the developers? Looks okay under Vista (32-bit).

not if you reported it in wrong thread (not its own)… as you can see, with many reports in, it gets hectic, and if issue does not have its own thread, it will most likely be overlooked.

thats why they should be in separate thread… its very hard to find things when there are multiple things in thread called “pa 2010 b1”

Will bear that in mind for future posts.
Would you like me to repost? I’m really not being funny by asking, I know you must be very busy…just trying to be helpful.
