On installing the program I am getting the error message:
"Unable to execute file c:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\pashutil.exe

This can’t be right!

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 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).
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.
Hello!
The regular version of PA 2023 is out for over 6 months now, but there is still no sign of the portable release.
(When) will there be one?
Thanks!
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
Win 11 64 bit
I have some archives which have been encrypted, using the encrypt option either in pbs or when interactively creating a zip. When I open these, and look at files, I am asked for passwords, which I know, and then can view items or decrypt the files in the archive (tools>decrypt files).
However, when I use the Actions>Remove Archive Encryption (whether using the same zip or asking to write another), the routine shows progress bar to the end, but then just hangs i.e. “OK” never activates. All process information shows this stalled/hanging.
What can I do to sort this out?
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.
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.
PA 22.00.09

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.

PA Burner Freezes
-
Why does PA Burner freeze when I try to run it while there is a CD with data in the DVD RW drive?
-
what mine does is start the burn process and buffering process and then reports a 100% completed message even though it’s nowhere near finished burning….it has in fact buffered the in formation and is waiting for the burner to write to my cd/dvd disc but whilst this is happening the burner screen reports a ‘not responding’ message and I’m forced to wait until it’s completes the process.
the task completes successfully but some users may see this as a bug perhaps?not sure this has relevance to your post but thought I’d mention it in case developers find it useful.

Keith,
Please wait a few seconds for windows/PA burner to read the information on your inserted CD/DVD.
Moles,
Is your issue on the regular PA burner or the Image Burner?

thanks!

I’m still having the same issue as in 11.50. The HDD light stays on as it did in 11.50. The optical drive light is off and when I eject the CD the CD ejects but the burner tool won’t unfreeze. The CD only has a few MB of burned data.

how long do you let it work?
-
10 minutes
-
does that happen with any DVD-RW disc or just that specific one? Can you do full erase on that disc and see what happens then?
thanks!
-
It doesn’t happen with DVD media. It only happens when using CD media unless the CD is blank.
-
do you have erase option enabled?
-
well that doesnt help if it doesnt even show the window…
We will contact you next week with info on how to turn on the logging support so we can get logs from the burner…
thanks

The issue is the same in 11.60.10. How do turn on logging support so I can get logs from the burner?
-
I am having this problem as well. I recently installed a Plextor DVD burner and was trying to make an ISO from a CD. The computer would freeze and require a hard reboot.
The computer froze a few seconds right after I selected to “Copy DVD to image” when there was a CD in the drive. If I did this without the CD in the drive the burner window would popup.
I tried different versions of PA but have not been able to resolve the problem.
On the same computer I also have the original CD burner. If I put the same CD in that drive I don;t have any problems with PA.
Is this a general DVD burner problem?
-
This issue with the burner freezing to me seems to be localized to only external burners. Am I correct?
If that’s the case then it looks like PA CD/DVD burning can only work if you use internal burners. I’ve burned CD/DVD using my internal one and had no issues. It’s the external burners that I experienced the freezing and the need to do hard rebooting.
PA seems to have issues with external burners for some reason.

did you try 11.60.10/12 release? Was your burner internal or external?
-
To your answer your two questions, I did try 11.60.12, I don’t think I saved a copy of 10, and the burner is internal.
I also tried to burn from the CD burner but it end of creating an invalid ISO that could be opened but seemed to contain no contents despite it’s size of 380MB.
