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.
Power Archiver 2010 b3 doesn't compress to cab

On Vista Ultimate 64-bit, the shell command of “compress to cab” operates as “compress and FTP”.
It might be worth mentioning that PA2009 behaved the same on my computer.EDIT: it is possible to create cab files from “compress with options”

fine in vista 32bit for me…problem has to be the 64 bit once again I would figure…:(

That’s my guess too. Since the new version is in beta stage, I figured it’s as good a time as any to mention this issue. Is there somewhere else I should post this problem?
