      I have tried to burn a DVD with PowerArchiver 2022 Final, but it didn’t work because PA didn’t found the external DVD-Burner.
      I have tried several burners from Sony, LG, Dell.
      I have connected the burners with several USB-Ports but unfortunately without any success.
      With other burning software, e. g. Nero, all burner worked perfect on each USB-Port.
      The same problem occured with PA2018 and it was solved with an update, but I don’t remember the detailed software version.
      Could you check the possibility of an bug, please?

    • PowerArchivier don't save Created and Accessed timestamp

      W

      Quando creo un archivio zip con un altro programma ad esempio Winrar se apro il file con Winrar vi sono visualizzati anche le date originali di Accesso e Creazione.
      Se ottimizzo quel file zip con la funzione Ottimizza archivio di PowerArchivier (o creo un nuovo archivio) il file risultate non ha più le date originali di Accesso e Creazione.
      C’è una opzione per preservare questi dati? (Non l’ho trovata nelle impostazioni del programma e ho già abilitato le opzioni “salva info complete cartella” presente in “Profili di compressione”)
      /
      When I create a ZIP archive with another program such as Winrar, if I open the file with Winrar, the original Access and Creation dates are also displayed.
      If I optimize that zipper file with the Optimize Archive function of PowerArchivier (or create a new archive) the resulting file no longer has the original Access and Creation dates.
      Is there an option to preserve this data? (I haven’t found it in the program settings and I have already enabled the “save complete folder info” options in “Compression Profiles”)

    • Unlisted pbs files

      pirrbe

      Upgraded from 2021 to 2022. Selecting ‘backup’ no scripts are showed. Only after editing and saving an existing script (explorer) it shows up in the PA backup folder.
      So is the ‘backup’ icon to open the Backup screen only for creating ‘new’ ones. This means that you have to open ALL your old pbs files and to save them again… not user friendly.
      No way to improve this ? Thank you.

    • Access violation with scaling > 100%

      Hi,

      I have a 31" 4K screen with 3840x2160 pixel, which PA is able to handle - except of a scaling other than 100%.
      When changing scaling for this screen to 125%, starting PA brings the following exception:

      Access violation at address 0000000..DF47A4 in module 'powerarc.exe'. Schreiben of address 0000...00330.

      After closing this message, PA seems to work fine.
      PA version 21.00.15 (03/2022) 64bit (tested with Win 10 and after upgrade Win 11)

      Is there any chance to avoid this access violation or this message?

      Hi,

      I thought, I’ll give it a try and upgrade my PA 2018 Toolbox on my production machine to PA 2021 (20.10.03)

      Sending registration codes in your order recovery doesn’t seem to work at the moment (I also checked my junk folder), online activation works Using registry to disable modules (for example HKLM\SOFTWARE\PowerArchiverInt\General\DisableBurning) doesn’t work as expected with modern ui. The module is visible, but I’ll get the trial nag, if I try to open it. It’s almost fine in classic and ribbon mode.

      I am running the latest rc of PA and just discovered a problem.

      I have a large, split zip that seems to hang at the 47% point during the unzip operation.

      The zip consists of three files, two files 4.7GB in size (the DVD size listed in the gui) and the third file is 418MB in size.

      Let me know what other info you require.

          The files in the archive are VMware image files. The archive was created by selecting the original directory and choosing the split option using the ‘DVD’ size for the split size. Here is a listing from the zip via PA’s print to txt file option:

            deflate method with maximum compression?

            anything else checkmarked other than “include system and hidden files”?

            and, mode selected for spanning? (you can see it in the drop down menu below the span size options.

              Method is Bzip2, compression is normal. The file was split using Winzip (I don’t see a split/span mode type option in Winzip).

                      The flow is rather strange. The archive was originally created with 7zip using Method=Bzip2, compression=normal. The archive was one large file.

                      After the archive was created it was transferred across a wan where it was decided it should be split. The user only had Winzip 11.2 (build 8094) and split the file into DVD sized files.

                      I can unzip the split archive on my local machine using 7zip, Winzip, and Winrar. The only problem is with the latest build of PA.

                            Is the new 11.60 build release today supposed to address this? If so, it still hangs. If not, never mind :).

                              nope, could not reproduce.

                              are these vmware image files downloadable somewhere? i have tried creating similar example, but everything worked fine. It might be something that was special to files compressed.

                                No, the image files are not distributable. I will see if I can come up with a reproducible scenario and set of accompanying steps.

                                  that would definetly help us solve the issue…. i created several similar files (filename and filesize), compressed it to bzip, normal in 7z and then spanned it in WZ and works fine here. It probably is more specific that simple spanning on bzip does not work.

                                    I just recreated the problem using the rfdc tool I referenced in this post:

                                    I then used 7zip to create a zip file using the settings mentioned earlier in this post. Next, I used Winzip to split this zip into DVD sized files. Finally, I used PA to unzip the split zip. PA eventually hung trying to unzip the split files.

                                    Hopefully you can recreate the problem using these steps.

                                    Let me know if you have any questions.

                                          check it out and see if it solves your issue.
                                          It seems that split bz2 zip files were not properly supported!

                                          thanks
