    News/Update on PowerArchiver/Connexion in 2024
    TheAndyMacT

    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).

    BETA PowerArchive 22.00.11 - Windows 11 Context Menu duplicated/additional tier
    TheAndyMacT

    The Windows 11 context menu for PowerArchiver on normal files (to be compressed, etc.) is now showing multiple tiers with two identical menus. See attached captures of the issue:

    No Icons for SFX-Archives
    MerowingerM

    Hello!

    I’ve just created SFX-Archives both from ZIP and 7z-Archives and none has an Icon as it seems.
    I use the new version 22.00.11.

    Zip extraction from windows 11 by windows
    D

    Basically I used powerarchiver context menus to zip up a folder then i used windows 11 own built in zip extractor via the context menu to extract all and this is where it throw up a fault. , I’m using windows 11 .

    The file that was a problem in the zip that windows 11 could not extract was iva “babe” cotton.jpg
    I know it has non standard quotes in it.

    However I had winrar on the computer and tried the exact same method with their context menu compress to zip and then I extracted the file with windows own extract all context menu and it had no problems. This indicates that powerarchiver is doing something different with iva “babe” cotton.jpg compressing to zip.

    Then I changed iva “babe” cotton.jpg to iva babe cotton.jpg and compressed it with powerarchiver and then tried it with windows 11 extract all and had no problems. It looks like powerarchiver is doing something to that one file that has quotes in it.

    Please note that powerarchiver extracted both zip files with no problems, only windows built in zip extraction had the fault. Reason I’m letting people know in case they send zip files with special characters in files names to people who do not have powerarchiver.

    When will a fix be implemented?

    Missing Icons

    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

    PA2023 22.00.09 trying to delete a directory from a tar file.
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

    PA 2023 Toolbox - 22.00.09 - Remove archive encryption
    PA_FanP

    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?

    Bug extracting from ZIP etc using Extract here with PA 22.00.09

    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.

          So what is the right command to put in scheduler

          something like pabackup.exe /silent /…/blabla.pbs

          right?

            simply selecting an pbs file will work, without any refference to pabackup - thats the same way it works when you click on pbs in explorer.

            What backup does is calls pabackup.exe with /silent switch (if so set).

            However thing to note there is that you have to put “” around any long paths or else you will be getting that error (cant find script) that you are getting… so it should be:

            “C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\PABACKUP.EXE” /silent “C:\Users\user\Documents\Backups\Scripts\test.pbs”

                  so now doubleclicking on pbs does not work either? :-).

                  Maybe we should try everything from the start, to see what actually works or not, because it has been rollercoaster ride ;-)

                    Doubleclicking did never work.

                    Only thing worked is starting the pbs file from within the PA app. Doing my backups now like this.
                    Open PA, klick on pbs and then click on run. Works perfectly…!!

                      thats very different ;-).

                      do you have different versions of PA installed?

                        its getting clearer now - when you say it works from inside PA, you mean via backup list, right?

                          As I said some posts above I did a complete uninstall and reinstall. So only one version installed.

                          Yes via backup list…

                            well PBS files dont seem to be properly registered with windows explorer. There are several possible reasons for this.

                            Did you try cmd line i suggested before? Did that work?

                            “C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\PABACKUP.EXE” /silent “C:\Users\user\Documents\Backups\Scripts\test. pbs”

                            just replace it to proper path to your files.

                              (when you click on run on backup script in backup window, that is what PA does, it runs shell execute command, which is basically same thing as command line prompt).

                                  it has to work, reason it didnt work was because of long paths and you probably did not use “”… but i figured that out before, problem was that I thought that you wrote how you tried it from explorer and it works :-)

                                  anyway, now schedule an task using the same thing… it HAS to work… I will not accept no for an answer ;-)

                                            A small step further…
                                            I made the file association between pbs files and PA again and now at least a double click on pbs file starts PA correctly and files are backuped.

                                            But start from scheduler still doesn’t work. PA gets started and does nothing.

                                              check your task, make sure that backup it is starting is the right backup (that it points to proper file).

                                                it should be something like this:

                                                “C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\PABACKUP.EXE” /silent “C:\Users\user\Documents\Backups\Scripts\test. pbs”

                                                        can we do this by chat or something? Would be faster. R U in skype or something?

                                                          OK next step I tried.

                                                          Wrote a batch. Thought if I can’t schedule the pbs maybe I can schedule a batch that starts the pbs.

                                                          –-------
                                                          @echo off
                                                          start “Sedi Backup” /MIN “C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\PABackup.exe” “/silent C:\PAscripts\sedi.pbs”
                                                          :end

                                                          Ends up in an oleaut32.dll access violation. Does that help?

                                                            I did not catch those newer responses to the thread, this is what the command line is:
                                                            “C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\PABACKUP.EXE” /silent “C:\Users\user\Documents\Backups\Scripts\test. pbs”

                                                            If that works, then it works in batch file if you properly enter it.

                                                              Hey there… Can we get this thing working again please? I do backups manually every day now.

                                                              DoubleClick on pbs file starts backup properly. Still no chance at all to get it run in scheduler. Can we do this b telephone or remote whatsoever.

                                                              I want my scheduled backup to work again please…!!

                                                                    well what happens when PA starts but does not backup?

                                                                    did you try scheduling .bat file which works? Maybe that could be workaround… It still seems like something with permissions, because only difference between your running it like that and scheduler running it with same command, is the user that starts the process.

                                                                                        When I run it with user logged on option it fails with the following error: Task Scheduler failed to start “\nowijan.pbs” task for user “ritfs\Administrator”. Additional Data: Error Value: 2147943645.

                                                                                        Somehow the local admin machine account does not work.
                                                                                        But when I change the account info to domain admin account and the option user logged on the backup starts as normally.
                                                                                        Option run logged on or not with domain account does start the pabackup but the does nothing further. Behaves like dead.

                                                                                                      EXACTLY the same behavior. User logged on runs great.
                                                                                                      User not logged on dead task…

                                                                                                      wait - so it runs completly fine with option user logged in?

                                                                                                          so task scheduler cant schedule task unless user is logged on, that means something is wrong with task schedulers starting tasks as another user. I guess we need to google for solutions. I wonder if it might be some service that is disabled.

I had a change in die admin password. I think the tasks stores the passwords locally. I guess task scheduler has a bug when passwords are changing.

                                                                                                            So I will create a new backup user and create the jobs again. Hopefully that works…

                                                                                                                        OK… Tried on another server. Same issue. Seems to me that the scheduler functionality is broken. PAB starts does nothing…
                                                                                                                        Please send me asap the debug version.

                                                                                                                        i have spent an hour on Win2k3 Server trying to reproduce this…

                                                                                                                        How was PowerArchiver installed on the server? There has to be something specific in the way you are using something, as on whatever computer we try, it works fine. There has to be an reason.

                                                                                                                        Debug version can be ready within 10-15 days and it is quite pain to setup, there is no easy solution for that.

                                                                                                                        1 Reply Last reply Reply Quote 0
