    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.

    Convert archive is incorrect for some WinRAR 5 archives
    W

    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.

      I often need to compress folders which include CVS or SVN subfolders without including those in the ZIP. I’ve figured out how to do this easily when it’s always the same folder using a backup script, but I’d like to be able to do this on-the-fly using profiles… Is that supported in the current version of the 2009 branch?

        Thanks for your suggestion.
        We do not support that currently, we’ll see what the developers say about adding it in.

          you mean filter out subfolders?
