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.
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
If I compress a folder to a .pa using right click, Compress to folder.pa and use the new Windows 11 menu then the Options, Configuration, Miscellaneous, Use normal relative path setting is always enabled.
But I like this option disabled so I have to use the old style menu in order to get PA to compress a folder in the way I wish.
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

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.

I’m looking forward to deploying PowerArchiver 2023 to my users. Can you tell us when the MSI will be available for download and distribution?
Thanks.
Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1165/
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
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.
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 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.
PA main page is misleading.

Following on from deipotents post
http://www.powerarchiver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=405I looked at the home page http://www.powerarchiver.com
The second paragraph states
PowerArchiver is a truly global archive utility, fully localized in over 10 languages, including French, German, Italian, Czech, Finnish and many others.
and links to http://www.powerarchiver.com/translations where it states
PowerArchiver is a truly global archive utility, fully localized in 12 different languages.
and links to http://www.powerarchiver.com/download
Where versions of PA 2004 are available in
English, French, German, Polish, Slovak and Italian. :confused:I realise there is/will be delays for translations, but couldn’t the pages at least be consistent?
Reading the main page gives the impression that PA 2004 is available in “over 10 languages” and the language page gives the impression that PA 2004 is available in 12 languages.
This is misleading as PA 2004 is only available in 6 languages.
PowerArchiver has been translated into French, German, Italian, Polish, Slovak, Czech, and Finnish. Older versions of PowerArchiver are available in Greek, Croatian, Portuguese, and Malaysian.
The previous version (PA 2003) is only available in Finnish and Czech.
The older version (PA 2001) is only available in Greek, Croatian, Portuguese and Malaysian.I realise there is a distinction between the general term “PowerArchiver” and “PowerArchiver 2004”, but how many casual browsers would, especially as both pages use the general term? At least, Finnish and Czech should be incorporated into the “older versions list”.
Similarly, the comparison chart “Championship Manager Test” refers to “PowerArchiver 9.0” - again given the distiction between names above, is this supposed to be a different version to PowerArchiver, PowerArchiver 2001, PowerArchiver 2003 and PowerArchiver 2004 ?
