    • PowerArchiver 2022 Final does not find external DVD-Burner

      U

      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”)

      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%

      K

      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.

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

    • Problems with registry restrictions on PA 2021 and sending reg codes

      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 using the virtual drive system more and more…what a time saver.

      Is there any way to unmount a drive other than by opening PA? I can mount a drive without doing so via a right-click which is very quick indeed.

      If there is not, would it be possible to add a context menu to unmount either to the virtual drive or the mounted image file?

      Regards

        I have mentioned this option in the past and would find it very useful indeed but admin advised me that it is available when you use the PASTARTER option in the systray…but I must agree it would be great to have the option in the context menu.

        personally I’m not a pastarter user.

            yes, right clicking the PA starter will give you the option to remove the VD.

            The whole process shouldn’t take more than 1.5 seconds :)

              unfortunately if like me you choose not to have PA starter sitting in your systray it takes a little bit longer to get to where you want to be.

              I’m a context menu user through & through…it’s very rare I see much more of PA unless I’m specifying certain changes to an archive…or alpha/beta testing of course…:)

                That’s me too! That’s exactly how I use PA. Seems a bit strange to have a context item to do something and not have the reverse similarly presented to users.

                @ infimum couldn’t get your tips to work at all. If they did, a right-click would still be easier and faster ;).

                    PA does not display like that here. It used to though IIRC. Do you know what that part on the right is officially called so I can find out how to fix it? At present only two apps do this; Windows Media Player and Windows Live messenger. Using PA 11.61.07.

                              only program I do use from time to time is ccleaner.

                              but even that program I avoided using just to avoid it cleaning my recently used entries.

                              tried again earlier today but I can only get PA to display recently used archives…I can’t get it to display like guido’s start menu no matter what I try…:(

                                  If you were to do a search for “virtual drive” or “unmount”, you’ll discover there are a lot of postings.

                                  Indeed once of the enhancements would be to have the unmount feature as a context menu item.

                                  Another one is to add an option to assign a fixed drive-letter, e.g. “X”, rather than having PA assign
                                  the first available free letter.

                                  Right now, it takes the first available free letter, which in my case, is also my external backup.
                                  So I need to mind that I need to unmount any VD before switching on the backup drive.

                                  I think the context menu thing is on the wishlist since somewhere mid this year.

                                  =
