    Bug extracting from ZIP etc using Extract here with PA 22.00.09
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

    Windows 11 bug in PA 22.00.09
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

    Missing Icons
    LuxorL

    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

    BigMikeB

    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?

    Better ZPAQ support
    W

    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.

    Bug with "Encrypt Archive" action
    W

    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 Action / Test behaves oddly for me on .PA files
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

    PA crashes when I try to burn an ISO.

      Hello - Every time I try to use the ‘burn’ tab in PA, it crashes and Win Vista HP 64bit closes PA. I get a Windows message saying something about ‘Data Execution Prevention’.
      It seems to have started after I updated to the latest version-11.64.01, although I hadn’t really tried to use ‘burn’ for some time in previous version. Really wierd thing is that it had been doing this for 2 or 3 days in a row, then on Sunday morn. I shut down my computer for the day. Came home later that day, booted up and burned 3 ISO files to
      disc with PA and no problems; worked great. Then on Monday PA is again shutting down when I try to use ‘burn’ function and it has been that way ever since.
      I have added PA to a list to not use DEP but that didn’t work.
      Hope someone here can help because what really sold me on purchasing PA was this ‘burn’ function.

        strange… did you try uninstalling PA 2010 and downloading and installing it again? Maybe some files got modified or something, or possibly some setting somewhere… this would be the easiest way to check.

        I am glad you like burner function, it will be even better in PA 2011!

          I did uninstall & reinstall but it didn’t help.
          I will try that again, though-you never know.
          I submitted a support request.
          It is Ticket #:16923.
          I’m not sure about the status of it.
          I really hope I can get this sorted out because that burn function is very cool when it works.
          I also like the virtual drive a lot - that has been working great.
          Do you think it would help to try installing the previous version and can I even get a copy of it ?

              I first bought PA 1162 Standard in June or July 2010.
              Upgraded to PA Pro 2 days later.
              Somewhere along the way I must have updated to 1163 because I still have that setup file on my computer.
              However; I’m not sure if it is standard or pro version. I was under the impression that each one was a separate file, or is that determined by the license that the user inputs upon installation?

                it is all the same, license lets you use the Pro features… so try installing 11.63 (you have to uninstall current version first). thanks!
