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.
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

Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:

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.
No spanning while using queue!!!

Hello
Although I managed to change the default settings for the .zip archives (custom spanning works while uding default shell compress to xxxxx.zip) it turns out there’s no spanning applied while using the queue option!
Also, is there a possibility to change the default naming policy for the .zip files? (e.g. like filename+text)
P.S. Using latets version 11.50.66
-
so queue does not apply spanning in any case or?
as to the naming policy, start an new thread in wishlist forums please and explain a bit more.
-
That’s right in any case, meaning when the queue option is used the final reasult is a single .zip file = no spanning.
It doesn’t matter if I queue files with ‘+spanning’ option or using default .zip profile (includes spanning).

thank you!

Hi,
please check following release:
http://dl.powerarchiver.com/2010/powarc1160rc1.exeand let us know how it works now.
thanks!
-
It installed correctly and all looked good but when I started using the queue option the atarter/queue program crashed and now it crashes on every attempt of me enabling queue.

Hi Axeldor,
you need to re-download PA from our pages, it will work correctly… that older version had an issue, it is not the same as official preview release released 2 days ago…
-
Oh! Seems like there’s no rest for me :/
It works ok now (I can add item to the queue and it spans files correctly), but queue resets itself when the first file is compressed. Goes blank = no queue / working but not queueing! :)
-
how do you mean queue resets itself when first file is compressed? Queue monitors pa.exe when it exits, it deletes the job, not before?
-

Yes, I open the queue window for preview and I can see that after the 1st file it compressed the rest of the jobs gets deleted!

Version 11.60.10 is up, this should be working properly now… please check it out!
