      Q

      Hello, I used the support form to ask this a couple weeks ago but never received a response. Perhaps here would be better? Here’s the issue:

      Powerarchiver 2019 was locking up testing a .7z file so I looked for and found a new version (note- new version didn’t fix this- I ended up using 7-Zip itself. Archive was large and contained a ton of files)

      Upon installing it, I was prompted to register it or “continue unregistered” so I logged into the website and used the order recovery option to get my new codes for PA2021. However, after cutting and pasting my name and registration code, upon restart when I click on the help button it still shows as unregistered (it did not show the nag dialog again). I tried two different codes (see below). I also tried installing again using the link in the email but there was no difference. Where do I go from here? Thanks.

      Update: After a couple weeks it still hasn’t negged me, but continues to show as unregistered in the (?) area- will this stop working altogether soon?

      OS: Windows 10 Pro version 2004

      File installed: first used PA 2019 to check for and install update, then used link in email which downloaded powarc200073.exe and installed that.

      Codes used: first tried the toolbox/english code in first email, then tried the standard/international code in second email

    • PA2021: Cannot close ZIP Comment

      Hi,

      I can’t close ZIP archive comments. Neither in archive nor in explorer view the “x button” works. I’m testing with PA 20.00.73 (x64 and x86)

    • Issues converting a folder of .zip files to .lhz files

      O

      Hi,

      I’m using Convert Archives on a local folder of .zip files, converting them to .lzh files, and I’m finding that perhaps 1 in 75 files is actually converting and outputting a file. Even then, the .lzh file is incomplete, missing most of the source files.

      The progress bars completes OK, say 75/75 files, but only one .lzh file exists in the output folder.

      It seems to be the same with different source and output folders on both local and USB disk - I can’t see a pattern.

      The files extract and compress (to .lzh) without issue on their own.

      Is there a log file I can check please, to see why PA does not like these files as part of the batch conversion?

      Thanks very much, Rich.

    • Do not include the extension in the file name of the compressed file

      Mario Lopez

      Hello everyone

      I hope that despite my poor control of English, you can understand me.

      When compressing a file, by default the extension is included as part of the file name. for example, if the file is name.pdf, the compressed file will be name_pdf.zip.

      Is there any way for the extensions not to be included in the compressed file name? As much as I have searched I don’t see such an option.

      Thanks for your time

    • Slow multipart RAR extraction

      A

      I’m experiencing very slow extraction speed of multipart RAR files. For the first part the extraction is super fast but when PA reaches the part2.rar the extraction from there on gets super slow. PA needed for a 6,3 GB multipart archive 30 minutes to extract. I tested then with another program and it just took 70 seconds. I had this slow extraction speed with PA for quite a long time and I always thought that is maybe because of a high compression rate that the extraction would take longer. But it seems that only PA gets that slow.

      I have lots of multipart archives that are 10+ GB and with PA it would be really time consuming. Is there any solution to this?

      Hi -

      I have powerarchiver licenses for powerarchiver standard and toolbox (and also as a result for pro).

      I can successfully register powerarchiver with my pro/toolbox codes, and it unlocks the majority of the content/features. However if I try and create a .pa style archive I get the registration popup saying I need PowerArchiver Pro (if I go to help/about I can verify I have the relevant version and it’s registered to me).

      Hi,

    • Bugs I found and wanted to share with the team.

      B

      Hi I recently bought PowerArchiver and found some bugs and issues that I hit testing some of the features out.

      If you are doing a backup and on the compression options screen its default is compression format is PA with no option to change disk spanning. If you change to 7-zip you can change disk spanning. If you change the disk spanning then move back to PA format the field for disk spanning disables but the option stays set to what you changed it to. When you do a backup it will use PA with files spanning but PowerArchiver says that its not a valid format when you open it. If PA can’t really do file spanning then this screen is allowing it.

      I have attached an image where the progress bar is in the middle of the CD/DVD/BD Tools screen.

      alt text

      I have a 7-Zip file I created using the backup tools doing an increment backup. It opens and extracts just fine but if you using the Test option PowerArchiver locks up. Link to file: Backup-2021-02-05-20-35-36 TEST LOCKUP.7z

      On any Zip/PA/7-Zip process the pause and cancel buttons do not work. You have to hard kill the entire application to get out.

    • Does PA supports Intel's zlib?

      G

      There would be many of us with Intel Processors.

      and they have their own optimized zlib algorithm, which can result in more efficiency if used combined with their hardware processor.

      Reference:
      https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/zlib-compression-whitepaper-copy.pdf

      Can we get the same Functionality Under Hardware Acceleration Feature?

      Zlib is not the only feature that intel has included with their processor, there’s many, which if combined can result in efficient and better compression ratios.

    • PA and conflict with Antivirus

      G

      I’m using the Kaspersky Total Security.

      I have configured PA as exclusion as followed:

      PA Exclusion.png

      and also is set us trusted application

      PA Trusted Application.png

      Scenario:

      My Antivirus likes to scan for everything, and it’s safeguarding behavior is to prevent the access to the file until the file is properly scanned for.

      The issue:

      PA when losses the access to file, it is stuck, consumes Resources, and never completes the process or throws any error

      Recommendation:
      PAStarter should also work as PAMonitor:
      There should be a monitoring process, at least if I’m using queuing feature, that should check for never ending compression processes and terminate them so the queue can be little bit automated.

      Also,
      There should be multiple attempts at retrying if PA loses access to or is denied, instead of having to see process was stuck for longer duration.

      Or, better, save the parameters I used for keeping the files in compression, and automatically restart the whole compression process after termination the same, of same folders and files set, this should happen in case if compression was stuck.

    • Using the Queue Feature affects Compression Ratio negatively

      G

      If you use Queue Feature, you are not saving on space, you are just squeezing less.

      Here’s explaination:

      I did test the same on multiple files, and of different types.

      It does have large difference for each large file you are trying to squeeze.

      First of all I know that no question is a stupid question…but boy do I feel stupid.

      Since I’ve updated to 2010 ver 11.50.30 (using zip) I’m having difficulty doing backups. The scripts I have used forever no longer works. Help menu says that I can give the backups whatever name I want, but the only backup name that will work is PowerArchiver backup_.

      What am I doing wrong? I’m probably not giving enough info here, please let me know what you need to know.

      I’ll be more than greatful for your help!:confused: :confused: :confused:

        Is the problem only with old scripts - if you create a new script does that work OK?

          On first screen, you can change the name of the backup, on 2nd screen, you select location of the backup…. maybe thats the issue? I doubt it since it was same in PA 2010, but i have to ask.

              On first screen, you can change the name of the backup, on 2nd screen, you select location of the backup…. maybe thats the issue? I doubt it since it was same in PA 2010, but i have to ask.

              thanks!

              First screen says select Backup Archive and it defaults to PowerArchiver backup.zip. I would like this to say Mentor daily server backup. When I use the Mentor file name it will not back up. Next screen I’m directing it to where we save our daily backups. We do encrypt with PK v2.04g and a password, but I removed the password from the attached file.

              There is a zip file in my Documents and Settings\My Documents\Backups\PowerArchiver Backup.zip that is 1kb.

              I also tried to create a new archive with the name Mentor daily server backup and all that happened was a backup was created. I have also tried creating a new script as well.

              I feel so incredibly lost! Thank you for your help, it is truly appreciated.

                I got it to work over the weekend and of course I messed with the b/u script again because I wanted to change the name of the saved b/u file, so now I can’t get it to work again unless I force a b/u.

                Windows XP

                what is b/u? I am truly confused too, so you are not alone :-)

                  Sorry…

                  B/U = backup

                    ok, is the problem that PA will not rename old backup files? because if you change backup name, it will only change future backup filename, not previous one…. ?

                      No, it will not run the backup at all

                        so you basically rename the backup and then when you click to run the backup, what happens?

                        Is it possible that you dont have write priviledges to that folder?

                        What if you try to save backup to your my documents folder or desktop - does it work then?

                        thanks

                          When I click to run the backup to run manually it will start to run, but not add files. For 3 minutes now it shows b/u status with nothing going on and no b/u file created. Also, it will not run automatically. :confused: :confused: :confused:

                          Ooops, I take that back…it has been 8 minutes since I started the manual back up and it is now compressing files.

                            aha… so how many files are you compressing? is that an network drive that you are compressing from?

                              Yes it is a network drive
                              5.93GB
                              27,750 files
                              5,128 folders

                                it is slower since it has to look through network folder for 28,000 files.

                                but it works, right or?

                                It should be slightly faster or a lot faster in beta 2 (didnt test it on network drive, but on local drive, instead of 10 seconds, file list building takes 1 second). It might still be slow on network drive since it has to take info from the network…

                                  Beta 2 is out, please check it out via web update or download page.

                                  It will be interesting to see if it gets faster for network backups!

                                  thanks

                                    I have downloaded Beta 2 and have scheduled an auto backup to start shortly. I will let you know if it starts and is successful. crossing fingers:eek:

                                      I GIVE UP!!! Why won’t this back up start automatically? I have it scheduled. Maybe I should go back to 2009? How would I go about doing that?:mad:

                                        wait, so problem is that your backup does not start automatically?

                                        You need to decide what the issue is :-).

                                        For windows scheduler backup, you need to check schedule and make sure login/password is properly entered, or else Windows Scheduler will not start the schedule.

                                          I have 2 issues going on. One that I cannot name the backup what I want to name it unless I rename after the b/u is complete and two is, it will not run automatically. I have login/password properly entered, etc. I will try again today :-S

                                            One issue fixed (auto backups), now onto the naming issue. I will test that next. Sometimes a fresh mind helps :cool:

                                              what happened with slow startup of backup due to the network? Is it faster in b2?

                                                  Crossing fingers PA has auto started and is compressing under the file name I gave instead of default.

                                                  I said last week I felt stupid…this just justifies it. :-)

                                                    I have accomplished success. Thank you all for listening to my rants.

                                                    The solution to the 2nd issue (not doing auto backups) was the missing password under scheduling in Windows. As many times as I had entered it, I must have been doing it wrong.
