I noticed that the option to add the optimize archive function to the context menu is missing on Windows 10.
Opening each archive with the interface in order to click it becomes tedious with many files.Same for others functions like Remove Archive Encryption

It would be nice to be able to at least extract Zstandard archives.

I prefer to use light themes, and when, for example, I have set up my main archive screen to be Classic Toolbar with Blizzard Blue, files in the archive are highlighted (no checkboxes, full row select) with white text on grey background. They are easy to see .
However, in the Add screens, the files and folders are black type upon a pale blue background, which is not so readily visible, especially when highlighting separate files in lists with Ctrl/Click for addition. It would be ideal if the backgrounds to files in these screens could be set to mimic the highlighting of those in the main archive window.
I have tried experimenting with different themes and settings for skins, toolbars and so forth, but, unless I’ve missed something, none seem to give me the effect I want.

Re: Windows 11 Context menu support
It would really make me happy if you put .BH in the Windows 11 context menu. I know it’s in the “More Options” section, but this would make it more convenient. Don’t know why the option to add it to the menu isn’t there in the first place. P-L-E-A-S-E ??? :) Thanks You!

Any chance of including this format in a future release?

Exceptional compression levels.
Thanks.

Now that the Windows Store is making support for non-UWP apps mainstream, including those with their own update delivery process, it would be nice to see PowerArchiver in the Windows Store going forwards - at least as a channel for the product to be available.

Tell us what features you want from new format…

In Windows 11 a new explorer context menu is introduced.
The “old” context menu may still be accessed through an additional mouse click, to reach the PowerArchiver context menu functions, but this isn’t comfortable at all.Could you add PowerArchiver items to the first level (and ideally disable the Windows native ZIP entry)

I’m surprised that OneDrive for Business isn’t supported. I can’t link my company’s OneDrive account, but a personal (free) account works fine.

Hi,
I’d like to propose an improvement for password protected archives.
Actual behavior is:
If I open an archive, which is password protected and make a typo in the password dialog, I’ll get the message, that the password was wrong and I end up with an empty window. I need to reopen the archive to be able to enter the password again.Improved behavior:
Tell me, that the password was wrong and give me the chance to enter the correct password to decrypt the archive. -
Hello!
I know I have been asking for this feature some time ago, but as nothing has changed let me ask again:
The ZIPX-format offers an algorithm, that compresses JPEG-files by about 20-30%. Please add compression (packing) support for this in ZIPX-archives to Powerarchiver. Extraction of JPEGs packed into ZIPX by this algorithm is already supported by Powerarchiver for a long time, so it should not be difficult? Or is it a licensing problem?
Thanks! -
Hi,
I’d like to suggest, that the correct archive type is (always) selected, when adding files by drag & drop to an archive.
This is already happening if the archive has the correct extension. For example, if I’m adding files to test.zip, zip will be selected. If I’m adding files to test.7z, 7z will be selected as format in “Add dialog”.
But this won’t be working, if the archive has not the “right” extension.
So XPI files (Firefox addons) for example are ZIP files. PowerArchiver opens them without any problems, but if I try to add file by drag & drop, PowerArchiver won’t auto select “ZIP”, but use the last selected archive format, while PowerArchiver already knows, that I’m trying to add files to a ZIP.
PowerArchiver 2010 unable to make a playable music CD?
-
Hello I am using the latest Beta PowerArchiver 2010 Pro Build 11.50.41 Beta 3.
I burned 13 Wav files from my hard drive that I had ripped from a music CD.
And the new burned CD does not play in my stereo.
Is PowerArchiver unable to make a playable music CD that would play in a home stereo?
My computer does see the 13 files on the CD however. But not my stereo.
Am I doing something wrong?
-
As I understand it PowerArchiver can only create data disks, not music disks.

Yes, for now. :)

Yes it would be very nice to be able to make an audio CD that you can play in a car CD player for example.

I this amusing mental image of spwolf’s jaw sitting on the floor shortly before typing that reply. :)
Put in my vote for “please no.” Audio CD burning in a file compression program is the epitome of feature creep and bloat.

you do know it is completly separate part of PA, not same executable at all :).
It would increase installation by 200kb, but it would not affect actual PA at all :)

Hello to you,
Excuse me, but allow me to disagree with you.
I do understand your idea, but like to comment as flws:What burning-software do users need?
-
When they need specific DVD-burning software, that is removing DVD-protection, split DVD’s from DVD9 to 2x DVD5, remove movie-subtitles, etc. they need DVDFab, AnyDVD, DVD Cloner, or such kind of applications.
-
These applicatons cannot burn single non-DVD files though, like documents, photos, folders.
For this a 2nd burning program is required, like Nero.
Nero cannot remove DVD-protections, so, 2 applications are required, 2x licenses, 2x prices, 2x installation, -
PowerArchiver can burn single files, but not audio cd’s - for this again another burning software (like Nero, or free CDBurnerXP).
-
Users who are having Nero, will usually burn with Nero, i.e. the burning features or PA are often forgotten and unused. That’s a waste of possibilities, don’t you agree?
Now… PowerArchiver could take over the basic burning-functionality of Nero/CDBurnerXP…
Nero has become a bloat program now, with all multimedia stuff included. Any user having dedicated media software (like PowerDVD) will not interested in all the extra Nero stuff.In specific cases like removing DVD protections, for that dedicated software wud still be needed…
But personally I would be very, very … happy should PA have the same features as CDBurnerXP or Nero.
This is my view…:)

You guys want ability to burn Audio CD’s?
Yes pls…
- burn files to CD/DVD (already available)
- burn audio CD’s - new
- burn movie DVD - new
- burn .iso (already available)
It would be great…
-
If it saved me having to install another CD burning program (Nero/Roxio et al.) which frankly are full of bloat these days, I would be all for it
