PowerArchiver 2010 crashing when hitting "No To All"

[gate1975mlm]

I have a set of 1-25 RAR files and if I start to unzip them and the “Confirm File Overwrite” window popups and I click “No To All” then hit cancel PowerArchiver 2010 freezes and then crashes.

I am running Windows 7 64 Bit and PowerArchiver 2010 Build 11.62.04.

Is this a known bug and will it or can it be fixed?

I tested the same rar files with WinRaR and no freezing or crashing with WinRAR.

Update!!

I do not even need to click cancel.

As soon as I click “No To All” PowerArchiver 2010 crashes and says Not Responding!

Another update!

It does not freeze and crash on small Archives only on big Archivers. How big? I don’t know but the current Archive size that is crashing is 4.40GB 25 part rar files.

Hope this info helps.

This was not an known issue.

Does it happen with different set of rar archives as well? To make sure it is not due to one of the filenames.

thank you!

i am thinking it might not be crashing… just has no progress to report possibly and then that looks like it is stuck.

It might be actually extracting all the files, and not just using file name to decide if not to overwrite it. I will check with devs and let you know.

thanks,

Ok I just downloaded a different set of Rar files with 23 parts 6.49GB total and once again when I clicked “No To All” PowerArchiver crashed!

Its seem PowerArchiver has an issue when there are lots of rar files.

I will upload a video to show you what is happening.

This has got to be a bug.

just try it again and dont touch it for few minutes… see if it goes away gracefully.

Ok I did what you said and it went away on its own after almost 5 Minutes!

Doing the samething with WinRar takes like 2 seconds!

Is this something that can or will be fixed?

it extracts the files, hence taking it long… I will see with devs if there is an reason for that.
