BETA: PowerArchiver 2023 - 22.10.02

[Keith Weisshar]

I just upgraded to PowerArchiver 2011 Toolbox from my account? Why does the About PowerArchiver box show PowerArchiver 2011 Toolbox Edition Business instead of PowerArchiver 2011 Toolbox Edition Personal? Previously I had PowerArchiver 2011 Professional Personal with my Pro Legacy key. Is there a way fix this issue?

[Danger.S]

I also just upraded to PA2011 Toolbox and the about box says “… Toolbox Edition Personal…”, so no problem for me after upgrading.

Btw. the download links for the Toolbox upgrades provided in “my account” do not work, I get a “The page you requested was not found” error.
I think to URL is wrong, with adding a “1” after RC the URL works.

You’re correct.

As an alternate, you could just use the link on Power Archiver download page.

[Keith Weisshar]

Spywolf, why is the about box showing “… ToolBox Edition Business …” instead of “… Toolbox Edition Personal …” even though I purchased a single user pack upgrade for home use on my own PC.

[Linkster]

is a 5-pack toolbox upgrade the most you are doing? Seems weird to have to buy 3 5-packs instead of just a single 15 user license. I certainly don’t want 15 different codes. How are you handling your volume pro users on the toolbox upgrade?

[Keith Weisshar]

I only purchased one single-pack upgrade with the quantity set to one in the cart and received one registration code but the about box still shows business, not personal. I did not install BitDefender since I already have Microsoft Security Essentials and having two or more antivirus programs can cause conflicts.

Hi Keith,

thanks for upgrading… No need to overthink it as Toolbox does not have Personal/Business versions, just single version (it is not meant for companies). We will adjust the text in RC2.

thanks!

There will be 10 pack as well for Toolbox users, this is due to how AV licensing works.

fixed that now, thanks…

The toolbox edition sounds interesting.

Is there a download link to a ‘trial’ version avail?
Also if purchased are you given a direct download link as I don’t see one currently on the accounts or download page.

Thanks.

There can be only one download!

It’s the license code that determines the flavour.
So the Release Candidate link on the “normal” download page is the trial version, if you want to think of it like that.</puts>

When going to upgrade to Toobox, the page that summarizes what’s in the cart has this wording:

Personal/Small Business License - Free lifetime upgrades, applied automatically to all orders of 5 or less licenses. Applicable to home or small business users with license totals of 5 or less.

I think it should be made clear that this doesn’t apply to the BitDefender portion (I assume that BitDefender will require an annual fee).

The same should go on http://www.powerarchiver.com/order/ when PA 2011 gets past RC stage, of course.

links come in the registration email you get… We have English and German BitDefender IS 2011.

Hi, I was thinking more of the BitDefender portion, as I don’t think that is not included in the download page, within the 9,164 KB file.

I know that the file on the downloads page goes between Standard and Pro. I have now tested it on my tst pc without a Serial Number thus in Trial mode, it gives all the features of the pro version but noting to do with the BitDefender portion of Toolbox.

To therefore test BitDefender is it a case of going to the BitDefender site downloading the trial of internet security from there, and then if liking it and wanting to go down the powerarchiver toolbox route, (thereafter purchase of toolbox) entering in the licence code for PowerArchiver Toolbox into that trial of BitDefender?

Don’t get me wrong I see where the integration seems to be going but I don’t see the BitDefender aspects currently intregarated with the product, such as they are with for Example: Acronis Backup & Security http://www.acronis.co.uk/homecomputing/products/backup-security/ Which integrates BitDefender directly within the product, and one single download.

Not having a dig etc, just seeking some clarification as the how it integrates with PowerArchiver 2011 or if it (BitDefender) in it’s entirety is a standalone application non intregarated into PowerArchiver 2011 of which the PowerArchiver Toolbox Licence Code actives BitDefender.

Any clarification greatly appreciated. Thanks. :)

@spwolf:

we will be sending upgrade offers via email tomorrow so you will see the pricing.

Have the emails been sent yet?
If so I’ve not received one. I even looked in my spam folder in case it had been mistakenly flagged as spam and it’s not there either. :(

haven’t seen spwolf around for several hours ‘Lux’…nothing in my email all day but I expect it there when I surface tomorrow…:)

OK. Yes, they are separate products.
To trial PowerArchiver, download from this site (as you have done).
To trial Bitdefender, as you say, you can download from their site - the 2011 Internet Security version.

When/if you’re happy, then purchase the appropriate PowerArchiver license.

If you go for the Toolbox (including Bitdefender) then
@spwolf:

links come in the registration email you get… We have English and German BitDefender IS 2011.

So I guess you would have to unistall the trail of Bitdefender and use the provided link to install the licensed version.

[PBMCMLXXI]

@ TBGBe, Thanks for the clarification, that is as I expected. I did try bitdefender when beta testing one of the acronis products, as that was bundled with it. I have now downloaded bitdefender on my test machine to see how it fares :) Thanks.
