    • PowerArchiver 2022 Final does not find external DVD-Burner

      U

      I have tried to burn a DVD with PowerArchiver 2022 Final, but it didn’t work because PA didn’t found the external DVD-Burner.
      I have tried several burners from Sony, LG, Dell.
      I have connected the burners with several USB-Ports but unfortunately without any success.
      With other burning software, e. g. Nero, all burner worked perfect on each USB-Port.
      The same problem occured with PA2018 and it was solved with an update, but I don’t remember the detailed software version.
      Could you check the possibility of an bug, please?

    • PowerArchivier don't save Created and Accessed timestamp

      W

      Quando creo un archivio zip con un altro programma ad esempio Winrar se apro il file con Winrar vi sono visualizzati anche le date originali di Accesso e Creazione.
      Se ottimizzo quel file zip con la funzione Ottimizza archivio di PowerArchivier (o creo un nuovo archivio) il file risultate non ha più le date originali di Accesso e Creazione.
      C’è una opzione per preservare questi dati? (Non l’ho trovata nelle impostazioni del programma e ho già abilitato le opzioni “salva info complete cartella” presente in “Profili di compressione”)
      /
      When I create a ZIP archive with another program such as Winrar, if I open the file with Winrar, the original Access and Creation dates are also displayed.
      If I optimize that zipper file with the Optimize Archive function of PowerArchivier (or create a new archive) the resulting file no longer has the original Access and Creation dates.
      Is there an option to preserve this data? (I haven’t found it in the program settings and I have already enabled the “save complete folder info” options in “Compression Profiles”)

    • Unlisted pbs files

      pirrbe

      Upgraded from 2021 to 2022. Selecting ‘backup’ no scripts are showed. Only after editing and saving an existing script (explorer) it shows up in the PA backup folder.
      So is the ‘backup’ icon to open the Backup screen only for creating ‘new’ ones. This means that you have to open ALL your old pbs files and to save them again… not user friendly.
      No way to improve this ? Thank you.

    • Access violation with scaling > 100%

      K

      Hi,

      I have a 31" 4K screen with 3840x2160 pixel, which PA is able to handle - except of a scaling other than 100%.
      When changing scaling for this screen to 125%, starting PA brings the following exception:

      Access violation at address 0000000..DF47A4 in module 'powerarc.exe'. Schreiben of address 0000...00330.

      After closing this message, PA seems to work fine.
      PA version 21.00.15 (03/2022) 64bit (tested with Win 10 and after upgrade Win 11)

      Is there any chance to avoid this access violation or this message?

      Thanks and regards,

    • Problems with registry restrictions on PA 2021 and sending reg codes

      BigMike

      Hi,

      I thought, I’ll give it a try and upgrade my PA 2018 Toolbox on my production machine to PA 2021 (20.10.03)

      Sending registration codes in your order recovery doesn’t seem to work at the moment (I also checked my junk folder), online activation works Using registry to disable modules (for example HKLM\SOFTWARE\PowerArchiverInt\General\DisableBurning) doesn’t work as expected with modern ui. The module is visible, but I’ll get the trial nag, if I try to open it. It’s almost fine in classic and ribbon mode.

      7989017c-3cd2-4a99-a1f6-06ce62329dec-image.png

      “DisableClouds” and “DisableExplorer” seem not to be respected at all, while the classic UI seems to respect the setting to disable any other unused module:

      Getting the very same problem since some pa2010 releases…opening any archive, small or big makes no difference, PA hangs for some seconds, and on a Core i7 965 with 12gb of ram (Vista 64 Ultimate sp1)!
      Deleting the registry key, or even resetting to default options I can get rid of the problem and archives open instantly again, but the problem comes back once I choose the Explorer with Folders view, with Modern Interface on.
      Hope you can track this down, as having to wait 4-5 secs even for the smallest archives makes using the program a real pain. :\

        that seems like very different problem - it might be related to your startup folder, change startup folder to something that has less files inside and then let me know).

          Looks like setting “Startup location” to a fixed folder (my Documents folder for me) solved the issue (was set on “Last open Archive” before).
          Double clicking on whatever Archive now makes PA instantly open it like it should. Setting the option back to Last open Archive, PA starts to hang again when opening Archives double clicking in Explorer.

            you have latest version right? Or older one? Check in Help> About, what version you have.

            How many files/folders are there in folder where startup is slow?

            Version 11.50.49

            Just tested with a folder containing just 2 archives…still hangs if option is set to “last open archive”.
            Not a great issue for me as I have no need to have it on…happy I found a way to get rid of it.

              how many files in that folder? (startup one?).

              There has to be something in that startup folder thats causing it…

              Can’t get what you’re meaning with “startup folder”, I’m sorry. I’m getting this with every archive, independently of the folder it’s stored in and of the number of files which are in that folder. Just having one folder with just 1 archive I get the hang when double clicking on it to open it with PA…

                When the problem is there, PA hangs 5-6secs before opening Archives. When it isn’t there, PA opens Archives almost instantly (depending on how big they are).
                The hang is there if I start PA directly too…that means, not double clicking on an Archive but just starting the program. And just having one startup folder which doesn’t include more than 4 small zip Archives (max. 1.4mb). Like I said, forcing PA to a fixed startup folder looks to solve the problem, no idea on what it’s trying to do with the other option set.
                My AV program is Avast…don’t think this could be it, as I never had this problem till maybe a pair of months ago (maybe even less)…if that would be the problem, then it would be there having one fixed startup folder, or?

                  can you please disable Avast temporary and try again… PA scans files when it starts, AV could be blocking access until it scans them.

                  Disabled all Avast resident protection modules…no difference noticed.

                    That will help us replicate this exactly.

                      @spwolf:

                      Got it… nothing special we could see from that.

                      Lets check this.

                      Create folder C:\1.
                      Copy those zip files that you have in folder thats slowing down PA startup to C:\1. Now set PA to start in C:\1.

                      Is it slower now as well? If it is slower, remove file by file from C:\1 and see if you can pin point what exactly is slowing it down.

                      Doesnt that make sense?

                      thanks

                      Tried this…I get the hang if I set PA to startup on that folder and if I double click on Archives stored in that Folder (I put 2 very small Archives into it).
                      What I noticed is that I seem to get the very same hang while browsing to that Folder while setting it in PA options, at the exact moment when I click on the “Computer” icon (to make my drives show up). That doesn’t occur with any other application I have on my PC.
                      The funny thing is that if I move my Archives to the default folder “My Documents”, I don’t get the hang (keeping PA set to a fixed startup folder).
