On installing the program I am getting the error message:
"Unable to execute file c:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\pashutil.exe
CreateProcess failed: code 2
The system cannot find the file specified"
This can’t be right!
I am using the latest official build of Windows 11

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 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).
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.
Hello!
The regular version of PA 2023 is out for over 6 months now, but there is still no sign of the portable release.
(When) will there be one?
Thanks!
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
Win 11 64 bit
I have some archives which have been encrypted, using the encrypt option either in pbs or when interactively creating a zip. When I open these, and look at files, I am asked for passwords, which I know, and then can view items or decrypt the files in the archive (tools>decrypt files).
However, when I use the Actions>Remove Archive Encryption (whether using the same zip or asking to write another), the routine shows progress bar to the end, but then just hangs i.e. “OK” never activates. All process information shows this stalled/hanging.
What can I do to sort this out?
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.
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.
PA 22.00.09

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.

Cannot Install Eval Version
-
I downloaded evaluation version several times after it did not work the first time, but had the same (non) results. Double-clicking on the powarc911.exe (either on the Windows desktop or inside a folder) causes it to do nothing. [Actually, it does make a Windows error-beep sound, but nothing else happens!]
Is my system too low in reqources? Using MS Windows 2000 Pro (5.00.2195 SP4) on an Intel Penium 4 CPU , 2 GHz, 512 KB RAM. (Free RAM XP Pro reports I have 259 MB of RAM free.) I do have McAFee Virus Shield enabled. What else could be the problem?
If you need additional information to diagnose this problem, please let me know what else I should let you know. All help will be much appreciated.
What a pity! This looked just like the thing I needed right now!

it should work i would suggest going into safe mode and trying to install the setup package if that fails wait for an answer from the experts. Do you use download software that can cause the program setup to get corrupt i suggest using download accelerater. (DAP) it works and does not cause a problem here. it caould also be a virus or something on your system is preventing that type of setup starting.

Silly question, do you have admin rights?

Hi,
It could be that:
- your download has been corrupted and you have been re-downloading bad but cached copy
- you dont have admin rights or your MCAFEE is blocking PA’s execution.
Assuming that you have admin rights and that McAfee is not causing problems, can you tell us what is exact size of powarc911.exe when you check it in Windows Explorer? You might want to redownload it by holding shift and then clicking on the link PLUS saving it as with different name.
thanks,
