Still bug with reuse window function

My problem is the opposite as mentioned in the other threads about this.

I want to use one instance of PA for each file. I disabled the option reuse window but PA still opens the files in the same window.

Im using v. 11.50.30.

You cannot drag and drop folders into Archive Converter window when you start PowerArchiver with Admin rights. If you start PowerArchiver without Admin rights, you can drop and drop folders into the Archive Converter window correctly.

Hi “spwolf”, Your suggestion could be useful. What about a dialog that says “Backup Successful” and one that says “Backup completed with errors - see logfile” or “Backup completed - some files skipped”. Thanks. Joe

Hello, trying PA my girlfriend heavily dislikes the file-icons that PA gives to zip-files in Windows Explorer. May one change this icon manually, or is there any possibility to keep the original winzip icons. Every time PA is run icons are changed albeit zip-files are not connected with PA. Second she would like to change the yellow menu icon of any PA command in Windows Explorer context menu (Power Archiver 2004, compress and e-mail and so on). Any way to do that? Thank You very much in advance. Christoph

@razor19 said in PowerArchiver shell extensions possibly crashing windows explorer.exe: I have done additional testing and have confirmed my crashes are 100% caused by PowerArchiver. I did a fresh clean install of Windows 10 and this time did NOT install PowerArchiver along with all my other programs. I saw no crashes for a month. So I installed PowerArchiver again and got a crash within an hour. I have since uninstalled PA again and have seen no such explorer.exe crashes since. Unfortunately, this is annoying enough to me that I will not be re-installing PA. Enough is enough. @razor19 As I mentioned above, we have taken some measures in PA 2019, so if you want to test and contribute, please let us know via support at conexware dot com and we will get you latest internal release… thank you!

@Big_Boss said in hang when using the Test function with 7z archives: I seem to have found a bug :o I’ve tested with several different files, and PowerArchiver always hangs indefinitely when the Test function is used with a 7zip type archive (at least files created with this version of PowerArchiver, I did not have files created with other software to test with). It just does not work, and the process needs to be manually terminated. With other types of archive like zip the Test function does work properly, the problem is only with 7z files. Windows 8.1 64-bit, latest PowerArchiver version in x64 Thanks for the report, @Mili will write it up

Solid archiving significantly increases compression, especially when adding a large number of small, similar files. But it also has a few important disadvantages: slower updating of existing solid archives (you have to repack all the files); to extract a single file from a solid archive all preceding files must be analyzed. This makes extraction from the middle of a solid archive slower than extraction from a normal archive, but, if all files are to be extracted from a solid archive, the extraction speed will not be affected. if any file in a solid archive is damaged, it will be impossible to extract all files which follow the damaged area.

@spwolf: glad it works now, but the problem with cab is due to Windows version itself. It seems that Window’s cab dll is registered in the system and takes over. We will have to investigate better if we can force usage of version of cab.dll that works. Ya I can record a video to show you what I mean unless you know what I mean? On windows 8.1 If you can fix this this be huge big thank you Here the driver set if you wish test your self on win 8.1 http://www.hardwareheaven.com/downloads/pax/PAX%20MASTER%20PCIe%20Titanium%20Driver%20Suite%202013%20V1.10%20Default%20Tweak%20Edition.7z You have extract the cab support then recompress then click next on setup then when you do you see that error on it :).
