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

Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:

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.
Windows 7 ISO Files
-
I have had the installation ISO images of several language versions (US English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese) of Windows 7 DVD for some time. Sometimes I need to extract files from the DVD ISO but PowerArchiver (2007, 2009 and now 2010) always failed to do so. When I attempted to open the ISO files using PowerArchiver, all I see are 2 or 3 files named “no_emul.000” and “readme.txt” or similar.
I am forced to use other softwares such as the free 7-zip or another paid software PowerISO to do this. Interestingly, when I convert the Windows 7 ISO files using PowerISO to the ISO format, PowerArchiver will then be able to open the converted files successfully.
My question is, are the Windows 7 ISO files of a different format than “normal” ISO files? Will PowerArchiver ever have the ability to directly open them, if not now, in future versions? Do you plan to implement such a functionality?
I find it hard to understand why the free 7-zip have this ability while the paid PowerArchiver does not have it.

Bond! (always wanted to say that)
PA 2010 does not support extracting UDF ISOs, that is something we have implemented in PA 2011 which should be out very very soon.

I’m sure he will be unmistakably ‘shaken’ & not ‘stirred’ at that news Mili…:)

If you download PA 2011 in few hours from now (when it becomes available), you will get that ISO functionality… plus you will also be able to create ISO UDF files :-)

ok, so PA 2011 is out on download pages, and you can download it now!
