Hi,
I just saw, that on the Website, PowerArchiver 2021 20.00.73 is advertised as latest version. (Actually, the downloaded version says, it’s 20.00.70 in the about dialog)
But it still comes with the “red icon set” for preview versions and has some known unfixed bugs, as I read here.Is it sufficiently stable to be used on production systems?
Kind regards

Hi I recently bought PowerArchiver and found some bugs and issues that I hit testing some of the features out.
If you are doing a backup and on the compression options screen its default is compression format is PA with no option to change disk spanning. If you change to 7-zip you can change disk spanning. If you change the disk spanning then move back to PA format the field for disk spanning disables but the option stays set to what you changed it to. When you do a backup it will use PA with files spanning but PowerArchiver says that its not a valid format when you open it. If PA can’t really do file spanning then this screen is allowing it.
I have attached an image where the progress bar is in the middle of the CD/DVD/BD Tools screen.
alt text
I have a 7-Zip file I created using the backup tools doing an increment backup. It opens and extracts just fine but if you using the Test option PowerArchiver locks up. Link to file: Backup-2021-02-05-20-35-36 TEST LOCKUP.7z
On any Zip/PA/7-Zip process the pause and cancel buttons do not work. You have to hard kill the entire application to get out.

There would be many of us with Intel Processors.
and they have their own optimized zlib algorithm, which can result in more efficiency if used combined with their hardware processor.
Reference:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/zlib-compression-whitepaper-copy.pdfCan we get the same Functionality Under Hardware Acceleration Feature?
Zlib is not the only feature that intel has included with their processor, there’s many, which if combined can result in efficient and better compression ratios.

Hi,
After the batch archiving is complete, and if I click on whitespace of the PA app, I get this error.
PA Batch.png
I did check for ongoing process and ensured no archives were corrupt, It seems like activity did complete successfully but the error is shown for no reason, and only after clicking the whitespace.
Please see if this can be removed.

I’m using the Kaspersky Total Security.
I have configured PA as exclusion as followed:
PA Exclusion.png
and also is set us trusted application
PA Trusted Application.png
Scenario:
My Antivirus likes to scan for everything, and it’s safeguarding behavior is to prevent the access to the file until the file is properly scanned for.
The issue:
PA when losses the access to file, it is stuck, consumes Resources, and never completes the process or throws any error
Recommendation:
PAStarter should also work as PAMonitor:
There should be a monitoring process, at least if I’m using queuing feature, that should check for never ending compression processes and terminate them so the queue can be little bit automated.Also,
There should be multiple attempts at retrying if PA loses access to or is denied, instead of having to see process was stuck for longer duration.Or, better, save the parameters I used for keeping the files in compression, and automatically restart the whole compression process after termination the same, of same folders and files set, this should happen in case if compression was stuck.
-
If you use Queue Feature, you are not saving on space, you are just squeezing less.
Here’s explaination:
https://youtu.be/XcxG2wxyink
I did test the same on multiple files, and of different types.
It does have large difference for each large file you are trying to squeeze.
Folders with multiple files, just have no benefits if you use Queue Feature

Hello!
I am using the portable version of PA2021. After switching from build 58 to 73 I have problems with the color-scheme:
While 58 behaves like expected and showed everything in light or dark colors according to the settings, 73 always shows the lower part of the window in dark colors, no matter whether I select automatic, light or dark.
This happens on a clean installation of 73 as well as on an update from build 58. I have attached two images generated on the same machine at the same time with the same settings. The upper shows build 73, the lower 58. Is it a bug or some changed setting I miss?
Thanks for help!

Hi.
I currently own the PowerArchiver Select - lifetime free upgrades and support for PowerArchiver Toolbox English license.
This license is active on 1 device. Does the license allow me to activate PowerArchiver on a second device that I own? Or do I need a separate license for that?
Thank you ! :)
-
Hello!
While the installable version of PA 2021 has already received two updates and is at version 20.0.73 the portable version still remains at the initially released build 58. Are there plans to update that version, too?
Thanks for a reply! -
I’ve been dealing with an intermittent explorer.exe crash for 5-6 years now. It happens randomly and will usually occur multiple times within a single session of an hour or two on my machine when manipulating files through Windows Explorer. explorer.exe is the only thing that ever crashes, so it’s not hardware IMO. I’ve done all hardware diagnostics and RAM is good. I’ve even swapped out motherboards with different brand and even the exact same one and it still crashes. sfc /scannow indicates system files are fine. I’ve done multiple reinstalls of the OS with no positive results. This crashing has happened on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10 64-bit. It seemed to get more frequent with Windows 10 after upgrading last year. I’ve also been using PowerArchiver throughout that time period (upgrading over time with new releases). I recently disabled all non-Microsoft extensions via ShellExView and saw no crashes for about 10 days, which is really unusual. I turned back them all back on after 10 days and saw another explorer.exe crash within the hour. So I disabled all 32-bit extensions and saw another crash. Following that I disabled all the PowerArchiver shell extensions and haven’t seen a crash after a day of heavy usage manipulating files within Windows Explorer, which doesn’t happen for me. The crash dumps I’ve captured don’t seem to indicate PowerArchiver is involved but I have a hunch it has something do with PowerArchiver shell extensions. The system even feels smoother with the PA extensions disabled. Windows 10 reliability monitor always has the same type of problem:

I can provide the crash dumps and additional information if necessary.

When you select “Deflate (.zip, compatible)” as the method, it still converts the archive to a ZIPX format.
-
Would like to see uha archives supported compression as well as extraction. I use this all the time and it is a very good compression format
-
In windows 10 you can right-click and select send to and the compressed zipped folder and the zip folder will contain the name of the last selected file.
Does PowerArchiver have a similar function?
Tom
-
Converting an archive to .zip (using both the “Deflate (.zip, compatible)” and “Store” compression methods) always creates a .zipx file instead.
pa-convert-zip-1.jpg
pa-convert-zip-2.jpgUsing the “Store” method sometimes creates a .zip file; I have seen it happen just now, but I cannot reproduce it.

While I’m not a “Power User” because I don’t post on these forums much I have been a PowerArchiver user for years and am very tech savvy. PowerArchiver is also one of the programs I use every single day multiple times a day….so if you can overlook my forum title I’d make a great tester for you.
I’ve beta-tested many versions of Windows (Win 98, 98 SE, Win2K, etc.) as well as more fun beta testing testing opportunities like Diablo II & Total Annihilation - my name is even in the TA manual.
Tech specs if you’ve read this far:
Windows 7 x64 Ultimate
Intel i7 930
Radeon 5850
6 GB DDR3I run my system hard, too…40 tabs open in Firefox & a full taskbar of 15-20 programs running at all times is the norm for me so if you need ‘stress testing’ I may be your guy.
And oh yeah…I’ve got a fervent desire for PowerArchiver to become even better than it already is. My friends are already tired of me telling them how superior it is to what they are using & tired of me proving it to them. ;D

it pays off to write an short essay… look at the bottom of the forums ;-)

Hi, If possible please could you add me to the alpha testers.
I generally test a lot of betas, enjoy using such products and informing the devs of any issues I find.
I have Windows 7 *64 on my main PC, testing PC, and Windows 7 *86 on my testing laptop and also use Sun VM.
Many Thanks.

meh….I don’t like to create huge essays…all they do is reassure my extreme awesomeness and make others jealous :cool:
Long story short, I was a betatester for Battlefield 2142 and Universe at War. I’m extremely nick-picky, and will make comments about anything no matter how small the problem is. I’m a GUI freak, also.
Did I mention I’m also a Professional license owner?

Not that standard license owners wont, just that price for the Pro will seem like quite an steal ;-)

scince winzip stopped supporting windows 2000 only powerarchiver and winrar support it. i’m proud that powearchiver supports it. My computer is 12 years old tomorrow and still able to run powearchiver that is the testement to the developers who look after their customers.

Hi,
Just wondered if any possibility of being added to Alpha Testers.Many Thanks.
-
and quick question are you going to release the new format as a format like zip as freeware or only the unpaf feature.
People would like to know as the more camatible the format ids the better chance people will use it
-

I’m unsure personally, but in my mind i think the ability to Read PAF format will be made available to all PA Versions. But possibly writing PAF would be a pro/toolbox advantage only.
Again, this is for PA to confirm.
-
i was talking baout it for other archivers otherwise making a new format only for pa use would make it rather limited.
are they going down the rar route
-
I Think thats the plan! Obviosly, thats where the money is! developing their own version and enabling users to implement it via other software.
But, the only ones who know are the owners and they are rather hush hush about things :D im sure all will be come clear :)
-
at very least, rar/ace route for sure….

Hi Chaoskiller,
The alpha team’s a pritty tight team to get into. But, one way to show your interested is to start using the forums.
Give the Developers & Alpha team a feel for your idea’s on ways to improve powerarchiver and it’s plugins.
Not to mention identify Bugs and remember to make it step by step with potential pictures to help the team try and replicate that sinario.
Its also advised you list your primary PC spec’s, you will notice the alpha team do this and other Beta public testers.
If you show your desire to help conexware make their software better! then come the next alpha vote im sure you will be considered.

The alpha team’s a pritty tight team to get into. But, one way to show your interested is to start using the forums.
Give the Developers & Alpha team a feel for your idea’s on ways to improve powerarchiver and it’s plugins.
Not to mention identify Bugs and remember to make it step by step with potential pictures to help the team try and replicate that sinario.
Its also advised you list your primary PC spec’s, you will notice the alpha team do this and other Beta public testers.
If you show your desire to help conexware make their software better! then come the next alpha vote im sure you will be considered.
Good points made there.
Let’s start with my computer’s specs:
Itel Core i7-2630QM (2 GHz Quad Core)
8GB RAM
NVidia GT 555M at 1920x1080
Windows 7 Professional with Windows 8 Release Preview dual-boot -
Great!,
Now it’s the norm to keep your “primary” system specs on the forum as a signature.
Obviosly, if you are like me you may have 1 work system and one home. Just use the PC that you use the most and have admin rights too.
Because you may be asked by the dev team or you yourself may want to change settings to see if it resolves an issue at some point.
Other than that, write your posts clearly. if you have any ideas that you have about powerarchiver tools, features or even new requests please post them.
If you feel it’s for the dev team only which can happen, just email them via the support page.
Your a programmer, so you are more than aware that at Alpha “prealpha” you are accessing potential unreliable software and even more importantly a glimse into the future of the program.
So it takes time for the dev team to trust a person to reach alpha level as you can fully understand.
We obviosly dont want the competitors to get wind of any new features in the testing motion before it’s offical.
;) If you are a PA fan, you will remember the time we brought out the 1st ever archive tool with ribbon interface.
Winzip soon followed… and in our opinion they still cant get it rite :D
Ow, and speak your mind! if you feel pasionate about something dont give up but explain why. I still remember arguing the toss over why PA should have FTP! and adjustments to the way it looks or works in certain aspects and many of them are still in thought and some are in the program and to me thats the rewarding aspect.
hope this all make sense and welcome!
PS: Remember, there is 2012 Beta 2 out now so start testing buddy!

I am an unofficial tester….I like stealth mode :P

I am using Powerarchiver 2012 at the moment, it’s stable, but has a few issues which need addressing but other than that it is a vast improvement.
I am installing VMware tomorrow and will be running Windows 8 and will be trying this on Windows 8 to see if it works as well.

Hi Jonessie,
We hope that you have reported any issues you find need addressing. You can report it here on the forum, in the Tech Support section or email support which you can find in the support section on the main page.Tx!!!

I would like to become a alpha tester, in our company we use PA 2013, and always before we put new version via group policy, we are testing if everything works as it should.
We use Win 7 Enterprise, Win 8, and Win 8.1 on the different hardware

keep in mind these are not for production environments - well at least not to install on co-workers computer… Alpha’s are really alpha’s, not beta’s that we release to general public. However, they will not burn the house down :P

It is very clear to us, the alpha version would be here in our IT division tested on a dedicated PC that are designated for such things, and we would like to help with the development, and by the way we have good security against fire :P :D :D :D

As I can already access the Alpha testing forums I’m guessing that I need not apply.

I think big colorful Alpha Tester sign next to your name should be indicative :-)
