    Thanks.

    Missing Icons
    LuxorL

    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

    BigMikeB

    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

    Better ZPAQ support
    W

    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.

    Bug with "Encrypt Archive" action
    W

    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 Action / Test behaves oddly for me on .PA files
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

          Are you referring to the background in Shell (context) menu?

            Hm, I tested with vista x64 and xp x64 and worked fine. Can you please check what is the version and a date of a PASHLEXT.DLL in Program files’ directory?

                  Hi there, here is Franky again. I’ve to agree to Cristian. The transparant background problem is still not fixed with Windows Vista x64.
                  I’ve installed the lasted 2010 Beta 1 refresh. (11.50.30) :-(

                    yeah, not fixed yet… it has same image, but apperantly it works differently in 32bit and 64bit.

                    It was lower on the priority list so we didnt take an look at it yet.

                      just an update, it is the same for beta 2… apperantly for x64 very differently than for 32bit version, so you will need to be patient a bit… it seems that we need to manually paint the resource via GDI which is a lot more work than simply putting icon with proper transparency which we do for 32bit.

                        Still the same problem with 11.50.41. :-(
                        Will it be fixed with the RC or Final version? I hope so.

                          and let us know if this has been fixed :).

                          thanks

                            Yes, now it looks great. No more white background!
                            When there will be the real RC1 with German language?

                              we are waiting for 2 more fixes before real RC1

                              thanks… it was insanely hard to make it work properly as it is completly different from 32bit version…
