[PA9.1] Cannot display all files w/ long paths in TAR archive

[cuicui]

Hello,

It is known that previous versions of PA had problems dealing with TAR archives and long paths. Files were displayed as “@longlink”.

The behaviour of PA 9.1 is not the same, now, such files (w/ long paths) do no appear anymore!! Here are some screenshoots of PA 9.1 and Winzip 8.0 opening the same TAR test file.

On Winzip, all files and subfolders appear (44 files), on PowerArchiver, only 17 files are displayed!!

Is there any way to display the whole content of the archive? Is the Command-Line version of PA also concerned by this issue? (i’m using the french version of PA).

If you want to check on the TAR test file, it can be found here.

Winzip 8.0

Power Archiver 9.1

BTW - What utility did you use to create this file?

This file as been made with a GNU tar program (running under Cygwin). For test, i also make a TAR archive of the same files using the 7-zip software, same behaviour when opening Winzip and PA.

Archive file made with tar “Cygwin” version here.

Archive file made with “7-Zip” version here.
