Hello everyone
I hope that despite my poor control of English, you can understand me.
When compressing a file, by default the extension is included as part of the file name. for example, if the file is name.pdf, the compressed file will be name_pdf.zip.
Is there any way for the extensions not to be included in the compressed file name? As much as I have searched I don’t see such an option.
Thanks for your time

Hi,
I’m using Convert Archives on a local folder of .zip files, converting them to .lzh files, and I’m finding that perhaps 1 in 75 files is actually converting and outputting a file. Even then, the .lzh file is incomplete, missing most of the source files.
The progress bars completes OK, say 75/75 files, but only one .lzh file exists in the output folder.
It seems to be the same with different source and output folders on both local and USB disk - I can’t see a pattern.
The files extract and compress (to .lzh) without issue on their own.
Is there a log file I can check please, to see why PA does not like these files as part of the batch conversion?
Thanks very much, Rich.

I’m experiencing very slow extraction speed of multipart RAR files. For the first part the extraction is super fast but when PA reaches the part2.rar the extraction from there on gets super slow. PA needed for a 6,3 GB multipart archive 30 minutes to extract. I tested then with another program and it just took 70 seconds. I had this slow extraction speed with PA for quite a long time and I always thought that is maybe because of a high compression rate that the extraction would take longer. But it seems that only PA gets that slow.
I have lots of multipart archives that are 10+ GB and with PA it would be really time consuming. Is there any solution to this?

Hi -
I have powerarchiver licenses for powerarchiver standard and toolbox (and also as a result for pro).
I can successfully register powerarchiver with my pro/toolbox codes, and it unlocks the majority of the content/features. However if I try and create a .pa style archive I get the registration popup saying I need PowerArchiver Pro (if I go to help/about I can verify I have the relevant version and it’s registered to me).

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.

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:

Extracting files but no files exist??
-
Hey there… Here is my issue. I have around 70gigs of PowerArchiver files… I start the extraction… I can see the folders being created, and can see the actual files being extracted. Thousands of JPGs, MOV, AVI, etc files that are flying by the status box during the extraction. Then after about 2 hours of extraction time, it completes… Yet, NO files showup or seem to exist???
Am I missing something?
-
I don’t have an answer to your question. I’ll leave that to the right people. But could you add more info to help them.
What is your OS?
Where are you extracting the files to?
Type of archive etc. -
I will give as much info as I know. I am on Windows 7, and I have a PowerArchiver 10 archive that consists of 144 files marked Z1 - Z144. Each file is 700 megs. There is one other file called media.zip that is 305 megs. I am extracting starting from the 305 meg file. When I choose extract, it sorts the folder, lists 954.000 files. I choose to extract to my hard drive.
The extraction process takes around 2.5 hours. In the status box, I can see where it says it is extracting the actual files. I see filenames… When it finishes, it correctly extracts every folder which is around 15-30k different folders…
Problem is. The folders are there, but not a single file appears in any of the folders… Obviously we are talking a pretty large archive… But I see the files extracting correctly in the status window, but when all is said and done, no files are ever extracting.

Sorry, need a bit more.
Do you mean Powerarchiver 10 or PowerArchiver 2010?
If you open Help/About what is the version number?I am extracting starting from the 305 meg file. When I choose extract, it sorts the folder, lists 954.000 files. I choose to extract to my hard drive.
Is this from within the PowerArchiver Window (GUI) or via the exporer context menu (right click on the zip file)?
Have you tried to use PowerArchiver “test” function?

OK - the problem is clear, but not necessarily the cause.
Don’t take it the wrong way but we will assume that you have enough free disk space for the uncompression (about 100 GB) :D
-
Another thing - are the folder and/or filenames using “Unicode” characters (eg non-english language characters)?
-
one million files ;-).
Was the archive also created with PA2010?
-
additionally, it would be swell to know what settings were used to create archive, so we can try to reproduce the issue… I am assuming uploading archive is out of question ;-).
-
and definitely check how much free space is there in temp and destination drive.
-
I can find out what it was created with. My web developer created it from my Windows web server, which is why it is so huge.
Uploading it somewhere would be impossible. It took me like 2.5 days to grab the files using broadband.
I might not have enough disk space to open it to be honest… I have around 154 gigs of free space, so I was really kind of assuming I had enough space. I figured that during the entire 2.5 hours of extraction time, that as I was watching the filenames being extracted in the progress window, that some files would write, even if I eventually ran out of disk space. The folders were being written, just not the files.
I do appreciate everyone’s help on this. You have no idea how valuable these files are, and I have no backup other than this powerarchiver files that currently… don’t seem to want to extract.
-
and to followup. I never get any sort of error message. It finishes to extraction complete to 100% without any sort of error. It just returns cleaning to the PowerArchiver 2010 program when complete.
-
it is hard to say like this - maybe also some kind of permissions issue, what OS do you use?
-
It is installed on Windows 7… extracting to my internal hard drive… It would not bother me as much as it does if I got some sort of error message, or if I didnt see the actual files flying by during the extraction process in the progress window… I mean literally I see the correct files… but they never actually write to the drive… I know I have said that a million times… Just so frustrating on files that are so darn important.
-
What happens if you try a partial extraction - e.g. just one folder?
-
did you try starting PA as administrator? maybe it is some kind of permissions issue (you should get error with it but….).
-
or just one file…. small file.
-
The problem is. .that even though my computer has 3 gigs of RAM, which I guess really is not a lot anymore, and it is such a huge number of archived files and a huge size PA tends to “stop responding” every once in awhile. It sticks so to speak, but then starts running without issues…
So maybe it is a size or ram issue on my end… But the folders seem to write fine… just not the files… In theory, I assume that it should write the files in the folder, after the folder is created, and then move to the next folder…
Maybe I am wrong…
But you have no idea how much I need these files… Could I be better off using a command prompt version of the software?
-
You need to do this:
1. Start PA2010 by right clicking on PA icon and selecting Run As Administrator
2. Select single file and select extract to> Desktop.Just let it work. Since there are million files in archive, it might appear as if PA is not responding, but it is actually working in the background.
So just leave it be and let us know if that file has been extracted properly and we will go from there.
thanks,
-
As we don’t have access to your archive and (as far as I know as another user) are unaware of existing problems which would cause this, you will have to help by answering what might appear to be “silly” or “non-relevant” questions - please be patient.
P.S. Be sure you have a copy of the archive for safety.
Still might be relevant
@TBGBe:Do you mean Powerarchiver 10 or PowerArchiver 2010?
If you open Help/About what is the version number?P.S. 3GB ram should be plenty (even with Windows 7) :p
But with such a large archive things will appear to “hang” occaisionally - don’t “kill” PA, let it run. -
Believe me, I have no problem answering questions that are silly. Right now I will answer any question you ask including my eye color to get this archive opened. I tried opening that way, and PA hung for 9 hours and never moved. When I say moved, I mean the progress bars never go above 0%… So I think that technique did end up freezing it up. I cant imagine 0% progress for 9 hours is working. Also for whatever it is worth, when I go into task manager to close it down. (I have done this more than once while trying to extract this) It is showing memory usage for PA between 800megs and 1.4 gigs of RAM being used.
Again I dont know if that has any bearing. The next thing I will try is to hook up an external drive with 1TB free and see if maybe it is a harddrive space issue.
I can attach some screenshots of the progress bar during actual extraction if that helps at all.

It Might be worth you uninstalling PowerArchiver, deleting the Program Folders and Registry Values if you are comfortable in that and then reinstall the latest stable version.
That has helped some people in the past with issues like this. Obviosly that was them and not you but if you have not tried this method already just give it a go.

Believe me, I have no problem answering questions that are silly. Right now I will answer any question you ask including my eye color to get this archive opened. I tried opening that way, and PA hung for 9 hours and never moved. When I say moved, I mean the progress bars never go above 0%… So I think that technique did end up freezing it up.

Might want to try with PACL to external drive… Use paext.exe and it will show you list of commands and examples. Download it from download page.

The issue in this thread is actually my issue and I’d love to bounce some more ideas off of you guys to see if I can resolve my problem.
I’m on Windows 7 and PowerArchiver 2010. The archive was also created with PA2010.
I have 6GBs of RAM and I am only trying to move a few files from the archive, so I know I have enough space for that. Unless someone can confirm that I need to have space for all the files on the archive before I can move even one file?
I am able to load the main zip file and see the folders and files within that archive. I can even drag just one file from the archive into a new folder on my hard drive. I can preview all the files in the archive.
However, if I try to move say, 5 files, I end up with the same issue described above – 0% progress and Not Responding. Each time I try to restart the process, it takes 15-20 minutes to get the archive open and I try again with the same result.
