Icon in file replace dialog

[nameless]

I know this is minor but I wanted to mention it anyway.

When I extract files from an archive using PA, and I get an overwrite confirmation as shown in the attached screen shot, the source file doesn’t have an icon shown. I’m not sure why this would be, given that the source file at that point has already been extracted to a temporary folder.

Hm, this is not PowerArchiver overwrite dialog - someone else utility. No PA Overwrite dialog has file icons on it.

That’s the dialog that appears when I drag a file from a PA window into a folder where a same-named file resides. The icon comes (or should come) from the file itself. Maybe this is “a Windows thing”, I don’t know, but it does happen when dragging from a PA window.

if you are drag and dropping, it is standard Windows copy dialogue thats controlled by Windows.

Try overwriting via Extract and you will see the difference.

So why is it that when open a given archive in WinRAR, and drag from it, I do get an icon shown for the source file… But if I open the same archive in PA and drag, I don’t?

good question, maybe it has something to do from where file is being copied… Ivan will check it out.
