    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.

    Missing Icons
    LuxorL

    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

    BigMikeB

    Hi there,

    there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:

    https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1164/

    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

    Better ZPAQ support
    W

    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.

    Bug with "Encrypt Archive" action
    W

    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 Action / Test behaves oddly for me on .PA files
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

      does anyone else suffer from intermittent flickering of drop down menus when using certain areas of PA ?
      in particular these windows as seen in screenshot.

      I’ve only started noticing it since installing Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and wondered if other users have encountered it.
      the menu opens but flickers about 3 or 4 times before stabilizing…
      PA/W7 or Graphics Card I wonder ?

      I don’t recall ever having this problem in Vista 32bit.

      Windows 10 Pro x64

        Don’t see it myself moles42, but I am using Vista not Win7, so that tells you nothing. ;)

        Is it worth checking for an updated graphics driver or are you up to date on that one?

          I’m using latest drivers for my card…a process of elimination I guess…PA/Windows 7 or my card.
          strange thing is it doesn’t happen on any other software I’m using with drop down menus.

                  Hey moles42, I noticed something similar here, in that the menu flickers, but only once, before stabilizing. Sorry I’m a bit slow with the updates, but I am still recovering from my “Twitter” affliction. :D :rolleyes:
