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.

Is it possible to add a jumplist option to PA that contains the tools like burner, etc.
I have PA added to the start menu but is contains no jumplist.
-
currently when you add PA.exe to the taskbar, it adds MRU for archives and backups, it doesnt add one for burner yet…I think there might be limitation on how many items we can put there, we need to check.
-
I would like the same style as steam does in the start menu.
-
no clue what it means… PA has full blown jumplist menu, expand it to 16 items to see everything.
-
this is what I mean. It’s the start menu. I do not have PA in the Taskbar.
-
Seems to be connected to a checkbox in the taskbar properties. I had this turned of. You can close the thread.
-
can we get screenshot of PA jumplist in full force? its pretty!
-
here it is in all it’s glory

you are not cool, boss :-).
so what displays at your side?
-
I can get it to display ‘recent’ files such as the archives I’ve used but it fails to show the virtual drive or the burner even after I’ve used them.
tried several times to achieve ‘guido’s’ look but yet to have success…I’ll experiment some more today.

you need to expand your number of items on jumplists to 16 if you want to show full jumplist
-
still no luck upto now and it is at 16…strange thing is even after having over a dozen archives open and several virtual drives and burning it still refuses to show…wonder if another setting in PA is preventing it maybe?..I’ll play some more during the day.
-
it might be that it does not recognize you as pro user for some reason, we will figure it out tomorrow…
-
this is all I can get to show no matter what I try…
opened 30+ archives and added several virtual drives but still only shows the 4 recent files used…damned if I can get it to do anything more and I’ve rechecked the settings in w7.

-
maybe you disabled jumplists? dont know… thats not jumplist ;-)
-
no…haven’t disabled them in any way…it’s a wierd one this but I can live with basic operation I guess.
tried everything I can think of but same result each time. -
what does your internet explorer jumplist look like? screenshot?
-
IE Jumplist…
-
are both checkboxes under Taskbar> Start Menu> Privacy checked?
-
yes…tried them with tick and without.
-
you need to test it with taskbar jumplists, not with start menu jumplists… it seems as if start menu jumplists dont get updated at the same time you change options, but taskbar ones do.
