For example:
Download this ZIP file: http://dslstats.me.uk/files/dslstats32W-6.5.zip
Everything in the ZIP file is in a directory “dslstats32W-6.5”.
However when I extract using right click “Extract Here” the name of the directory created is “2W-6.5” !
I am running PA 22.00.09 on Windows 11. I have seen the same happen with some other kinds of archive too.
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
If I compress a folder to a .pa using right click, Compress to folder.pa and use the new Windows 11 menu then the Options, Configuration, Miscellaneous, Use normal relative path setting is always enabled.
But I like this option disabled so I have to use the old style menu in order to get PA to compress a folder in the way I wish.
Just tried using the Modern (Windows 10) Icon set and seeing a few missing icons in both PowerArchiver Burner and PowerArchiver Encryption screens . They are all there in the Minimalistik icon set and the only difference I can see is the former is blue and the latter grey. In version 22.00.9

PA 22.00.09 shows a nag screen, when I try to open some setting windows. I have already PA 2023 Toolbox and PA shows, that it’s licensed in the info dialog.

I’m looking forward to deploying PowerArchiver 2023 to my users. Can you tell us when the MSI will be available for download and distribution?
Thanks.
Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1165/
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1164/
As it seems, that PowerArchiver and PACL use the 7zip libraries, could you please update them to the latest version?
Hi,
From where I get PAVD2023.EXE? PowerArchiver 2023 tries to open it.
But it seems, it tries to download PAVD2021.EXE.
Thanks
I noticed that the version of ZPAQ used is older than the latest released 7.15 https://mattmahoney.net/dc/zpaq.html also there seems to be a newer fork that adds several features https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz
It would be useful to implement this latest version (it also maintains the same syntax and behavior as the latest official release if used the -715 flag) and add when opening a zpaq file a choice of the version of the files to show (e.g. as dummy folders represented the various versions present). Since any previous changes are stored with this format, it is possible to extract a snapshot of a certain date/version.
If I open a password-protected zipper file (created with WinRAR but I think that’s irrelevant), open it with PowerArchiver and run “Remove Encryption” on the same file, then reopen it and add a password with “Encrypt Archive,” the resulting archive will be protected with the old ZipCrypto algorithm and not AES as indicated.
(this can be verified, for example, by trying to open the archive files with Windows Explorer, which does not support the AES algorithm)
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.
Statusbar: File info
-
1. open PA
2. open zip file
3. enable ftp window
4. close ftp windowThe file info in the status bar is now on the right side of the screen and is partly missing.

Cannot reproduce it here - XP SP3.
Any other options (I can see you also have Backup Window open in screenshot) ?
-
you also need to have the backup window enabled before you open the zip file :-)
thanks TBGBe
-
still can’t reproduce in vista 32 bit with backup window enabled.
-
you also need to have the backup window enabled before you open the zip file :-)
thanks TBGBe
You’re welcome.
However, I still can’t reproduce the problem :(
Tried in b3(50.41) and pre-rc1(50.45). -
if it doesn’t work step out of the archive using up and select a different archive.
I’m using .45
-
using .45 here also but still can’t reproduce the fault following your instructions…it still works fine for me.
sorry.
the alignment of my text is different to yours…
mine seems to align more to the left as opposed to yours…see screenshot.
-
I also have PA maximized. I see you do not have this. But i’m able to reproduce it without PA being Max.
-
if it doesn’t work step out of the archive using up adn select a different archive.
I’m using .45
Tried switching between 4 different zip files; preview window on or off; backup list empty and with file listed - still no problem :confused:
-
I also have interface set to explorer and selected a zip file from the filelist.

Can confirm here by following the steps you posted guido.
See the attached image.

Yes!!! :D:D:D:D:D

Interesting, I’ve tried everything and cant’t reproduce it.

Finally reproduced this.
How I did it:-
a) PA maximised
b) Explorer view
c) Preview window open
d) Backup Window open
e) FTP window button on QA ToolbarIn explorer double click zip to open.
Press FTP Window button in QAT (on).
Press FTP Window button in QAT (off).Note: if I restore PA window (not maximised) - no problem.
