    Windows 11 Shell Extension crash
    W
    Copied the Take Command shortcut, changed Target to be wt.exe -p “Take Command” and saved it. Right-clicked to get to properties and Explorer crashed. (wt.exe is the Microsoft Terminal program, which I have installed from the Microsoft Store.) The Target path had changed to: C:\Users{username}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\wt.exe -p “Take Command” Created a new shortcut in a Start Menu folder and set the command line to the same, and it crashed the same. Created a new shortcut and set the command line to mspaint.exe (also a Windows Store app) and Explorer crashed on right-click on the shortcut. It appears PowerArchiver shell extensions doesn’t handle Windows Store apps in shortcuts properly. Perhaps it needs better defensive coding around checking the Target of shortcuts, or just ignoring shortcuts altogether. Running PA 22.00.11 on Windows 11 24H2 Build 26100.6584

    Ultimate zip was made by powerarchiver
    D
    From google search AI Overview Yes, that’s correct. UltimateZip was indeed a product of the same company that developed PowerArchiver, and it was essentially a rebranded version of PowerArchiver. It was discontinued and replaced by PowerArchiver.

    News/Update on PowerArchiver/Connexion in 2024
    TheAndyMacT
    Hi everyone, some good news about PowerArchiver… I’ve managed to get in touch with the original developer of PowerArchiver, Ivan Petrovic, and he has confirmed that the product is not dead or abandoned, in fact it is still very much alive! There has been a hiatus over the past months for various reasons, but that we should expect to see stuff coming through in the coming months (hopefully the next 2 months).

    Zip extraction from windows 11 by windows
    D
    Basically I used powerarchiver context menus to zip up a folder then i used windows 11 own built in zip extractor via the context menu to extract all and this is where it throw up a fault. , I’m using windows 11 . The file that was a problem in the zip that windows 11 could not extract was iva “babe” cotton.jpg I know it has non standard quotes in it. However I had winrar on the computer and tried the exact same method with their context menu compress to zip and then I extracted the file with windows own extract all context menu and it had no problems. This indicates that powerarchiver is doing something different with iva “babe” cotton.jpg compressing to zip. Then I changed iva “babe” cotton.jpg to iva babe cotton.jpg and compressed it with powerarchiver and then tried it with windows 11 extract all and had no problems. It looks like powerarchiver is doing something to that one file that has quotes in it. Please note that powerarchiver extracted both zip files with no problems, only windows built in zip extraction had the fault. Reason I’m letting people know in case they send zip files with special characters in files names to people who do not have powerarchiver. When will a fix be implemented?

    PA2023 22.00.09 trying to delete a directory from a tar file.
    Brian GregoryB
    I had a large .tar file (a backed up WSL) and I want to delete a few directories and their contents from it using PA2023. PA just destroys the whole archive as soon as I try to delete a directory, leaving it in a state where PA2023 won’t even open it any more. I tried several times and also tried compressing it to .tar.xz instead - same result. This should either actually work, or it should say operation not supported and do nothing.

      Ok, we might have a clue here to what is going on. After I installed the Outlook plugin, I installed the Snagit that installs a plugin in Outlook (OfficeAddin.dll). Aand after that I installed Windows Search for Outlook (mssphtb.dll). Does this help at all?

      try disabling each one of them and see what happens.

      thanks

        I got it working again, I uninstalled it an re-installed it and now it is working. Disabling the other plugins didn’t help. I think what happened is one of the registry entries for the plugin either got deleted or messed up. I have been beta testing a registry cleaner and that might have caused the problem. Might be a good idea to adjust the permissions for the registry entries so no cleaner can delete them.

                Make sure you do an uninstall of the plugin first. I did a re-install over it the first time and it didn’t fixed the problem. It doesn’t seem to repair the registry entries if you install OVER it.

                I doubt it’s a plugin causing it as none of mine were the problem. I think the plugin needs to be update.

                      of course, it was more of an comment about other plugins - as there could be interfeerence and it could be blocked.

                        Unless they installed a plugin that would interfere AFTER they installed the Outlook plugin, I don’t see how it could be a plugin, is all I’m saying. Especially if it stops working after a PowerArchiver upgrade. Something has to have changed in PowerArachiver for an upgrade to cause that, I would think. But going through the plugins in Outlook one by one to be sure doesn’t hurt, either. At least that should narrow it down some.

                          well thats assuming if someone knows whats caused it… i doubt they do. People install/uninstall things every day. Most of them dont remember it.

                          There is no chance of PAOP stopping working after RC1 update itself, since PA doesnt do anything that affects PAOP. If shell extensions work, PAOP should work too. If it works here, it should work there, nothing really complicated.

                            I thought for sure it was an Outlook plugin problem with another plugin, but it almost had to be something in the registry that got changed when beta testing the registry program. The uninstall and re-install worked for me. Other than that, I am at a loss as to what their problem with it could be. I’ll be curious to see how it plays out.

                              I had it installed last week and it was showing in the options tabs but wouldn’t give me any options to zip when using attachments…today however I installed vista service pack 2 and it doesn’t even show in the outlook tabs anymore even after a fresh reinstall and reboot.

                              Just tested it with Rc2 11.50.49 but same result I’m afraid…it still refuses to show in the outlook options tabs so I had to uninstall it.

                                PA 2010 has nothing to do with Outlook plugin being installed or not.

                                So installing/reinstalling PA 2010 has not effect on Outlook plugin.

                                What you need to do is uninstall Outlook plugin (uninstall!) and then install it again. See what happens.

                                p.s. there are default exclusions that you need to check in PowerArchiver tab in Outlook once PAOP is installed, as not all files will be compressed by default.

                                  I’d already tried what you suggested…uninstall and reinstall and even cleared registry entries from the plugin…the tab won’t even show in outlook anymore I’m afraid.

                                    see if it is on list of disabled plugins in Outlook.

                                    Also what Vista - 32bit, 64bit?

                                    as to the preview window, try clearing defaults, old settings are messing it up, once cleared, it worked for me fine.
