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.

hi,
wouldn’t it be nice to integrate all languages in one package instaed of offering an exe for each language?
in other software i purchased (example easy-cdda-extractor) there are lang. files offered by users of the board. in the menu you got “options - language” wiyh all languages available in the list. bex-cause i see now in download the english and german are ready first but all the rest we’ll have to wait for. -
problem is that translations are quite big when you have a lot of them… so full installer would be 15-20 MB instead of 8.
We have planned to have international version in the future with integrated languages however we will leave English as it is.
-
p.s. unlike many programs, we fully translate help file. Thats where the big difference is size comes from.
-
hi,
yes, you where right. the intl. version 11.63 is indeed very bloated with the translations, licence txt, readme txt, what’snewtxt and all the rest. maybe it wasn’t a good idea of mine :(
and the german version isn’t ready yet, installer and programm have still some EN txt.
so feel free to release a pure german version again……
and by the way, programm have some problems to start up, so i’ll install the 11.62 again. -
OK,
i had some troubles by installing v 11.63 on top of 11.62.
so i can only reccomend to de-install the 11.62 first.
after i de-installed all language related files i don’t needed. but stll some english text in german version -

spwolf,
as i’m a beta tester for some programs, i think it is in my genes :Di just wanted to see if they were fixed previously :)
-
we will have to update international as 32bit shell extensions are from english version, somehow… so there will be an update today.
-
sorry about that… it will be a LOT easier once we have new update working in next release!
-
we updated PA International installer so all should work fine now… thanks!
