    End of Powerarchiver

    Windows 11 Shell Extension crash
    W
    Copied the Take Command shortcut, changed Target to be wt.exe -p “Take Command” and saved it. Right-clicked to get to properties and Explorer crashed. (wt.exe is the Microsoft Terminal program, which I have installed from the Microsoft Store.) The Target path had changed to: C:\Users{username}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\wt.exe -p “Take Command” Created a new shortcut in a Start Menu folder and set the command line to the same, and it crashed the same. Created a new shortcut and set the command line to mspaint.exe (also a Windows Store app) and Explorer crashed on right-click on the shortcut. It appears PowerArchiver shell extensions doesn’t handle Windows Store apps in shortcuts properly. Perhaps it needs better defensive coding around checking the Target of shortcuts, or just ignoring shortcuts altogether. Running PA 22.00.11 on Windows 11 24H2 Build 26100.6584

    Affected by winrar/.rar vulnerability?

    Was Power Archiver affected by the WinRAR/.rar vulnerability discovered by ESET researchers recently? Not sure if PA is using their libraries for extraction.

    Ultimate zip was made by powerarchiver
    D
    From google search AI Overview Yes, that’s correct. UltimateZip was indeed a product of the same company that developed PowerArchiver, and it was essentially a rebranded version of PowerArchiver. It was discontinued and replaced by PowerArchiver.

    News/Update on PowerArchiver/Connexion in 2024
    TheAndyMacT
    Hi everyone, some good news about PowerArchiver… I’ve managed to get in touch with the original developer of PowerArchiver, Ivan Petrovic, and he has confirmed that the product is not dead or abandoned, in fact it is still very much alive! There has been a hiatus over the past months for various reasons, but that we should expect to see stuff coming through in the coming months (hopefully the next 2 months).

    Zip extraction from windows 11 by windows
    D
    Basically I used powerarchiver context menus to zip up a folder then i used windows 11 own built in zip extractor via the context menu to extract all and this is where it throw up a fault. , I’m using windows 11 . The file that was a problem in the zip that windows 11 could not extract was iva “babe” cotton.jpg I know it has non standard quotes in it. However I had winrar on the computer and tried the exact same method with their context menu compress to zip and then I extracted the file with windows own extract all context menu and it had no problems. This indicates that powerarchiver is doing something different with iva “babe” cotton.jpg compressing to zip. Then I changed iva “babe” cotton.jpg to iva babe cotton.jpg and compressed it with powerarchiver and then tried it with windows 11 extract all and had no problems. It looks like powerarchiver is doing something to that one file that has quotes in it. Please note that powerarchiver extracted both zip files with no problems, only windows built in zip extraction had the fault. Reason I’m letting people know in case they send zip files with special characters in files names to people who do not have powerarchiver. When will a fix be implemented?

    PA2023 22.00.09 trying to delete a directory from a tar file.
    Brian GregoryB
    I had a large .tar file (a backed up WSL) and I want to delete a few directories and their contents from it using PA2023. PA just destroys the whole archive as soon as I try to delete a directory, leaving it in a state where PA2023 won’t even open it any more. I tried several times and also tried compressing it to .tar.xz instead - same result. This should either actually work, or it should say operation not supported and do nothing.

      **PowerArchiver 2011 Toolbox with BitDefender Internet Security 2011
      **
      **What is it?
      **
      For 2011, we reviewed what our customers were purchasing and decided to better align our offers towards competition. So we have created 3 products and we have separated our extra tools into separate applications.

      Here is brief overview:

      **PowerArchiver 2011
      **

      • Compression Only version of PowerArchiver. No extras. All of the compression and extraction features are there. Zip/Zipx/Unrar, all the tools, preview window, UAC support, etc.

      PowerArchiver 2011 Pro

      • Designed for business use it contains: PowerArchiver, Send to FTP/Burner ability, PACL, PowerArchiver Outlook Plugin. We asked our business clients what they wanted and this is what Pro version is all about.

      PowerArchiver 2011 Toolbox with BitDefender IS 2011

      • This is our premium offer that will include all of our separate apps, so you will get PowerArchiver 2011 Pro, PowerArchiver Burner with Virtual Drive, PowerArchiver Backup with VSS, PowerArchiver Secure FTP and BitDefender Internet Security which is full security suite from BitDefender that has excellent ratings (Check TopTenReviews).

      IMPORTANT NOTE
      **There is NO forced upgrade for anyone to Toolbox.**So please do not get mad at us for something we did not do :-). If you have purchased Pro in the past, you will still get those features via license we call Pro Legacy. However if you use PowerArchiver a lot, and love all the features and developed, are excited by prospects of new format and new features, please do consider upgrading to Toolbox. For VERY low fee, you will get great AV (you can use it yourself or give it to your family members), and upcoming apps like our next standalone backup utility which will feature our PAF format. And you will be supporting PA development of course.

      Upgrading
      We will be sending emails with fantastic upgrade offer for all current customers. Upgrade price will be different depending what version of PowerArchiver you own (Standard or Pro and what year). So check your mailbox to see for yourself :-). In the meantime, if you have free upgrade to PA 2011, you can login to your account and get it. We do ask you to check Toolbox offer and support PowerArchiver development if you can!

      **More about PowerArchiver 2011
      **PowerArchiver 2011 has many new features, from addition of many new formats, many compression/speed improvements to completely new Secure FTP, Improved Burner and Backup. Million new features as well as significantly improved old ones.

      We hope you will like PA 2011, PA Team worked really hard to please everyone and we definitely consider it our best release ever.

      We are incredibly thankful that our users recognize our hard work and continue rewarding us for it. Thank you once again! Even more exciting times are ahead of us with new PAF format.

        Do you have Pro Toolbox without BitDefender since I already have Microsoft Security Essentials installed and I cannot use more than one security products on the same system. BitDefender is not made by ConeXware, it’s a third party software product. BitDefender is also a subscription product that only works for a year.

          consider BitDefender as a free offer to Toolbox users… pricing will be like that too. we will be sending upgrade offers via email tomorrow so you will see the pricing.

                Once again, let me double bold this:
                **
                IMPORTANT NOTE
                There is NO forced upgrade for anyone to Toolbox.So please do not get mad at us for something we did not do :-).**

                Meaning above new versions do not restrict people who purchased before from using features in new version.

                If you purchased PA 200x which had Outlook plugin inside, and this current license for PA 2011 does not, you WILL still have Outlook plugin!

                          PowerArchiver 2011 was released but the Toolbox version is still not available to purchase or upgrade? Will it take another few hours for the store to be reconfigured?

                            My PowerArchiver 2011 Pro Legacy key doesn’t appear to be working. It restarts after I enter the key but shows the nag screen again.
                            My PowerArchiver 2011 - Personal key works fine though.

                            Also, I don’t see the option to upgrade to the toolbox in my account either.

                                    Is the PA 2010 Pro key from a lifetime licence also working with PA 2011 Pro or do you need a new key?
