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.
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
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.
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

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.

I’m looking forward to deploying PowerArchiver 2023 to my users. Can you tell us when the MSI will be available for download and distribution?
Thanks.
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?
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.
Powerarchiver Offer License Valid?
-
I found this offer for Powerarchiver 2010 pro: https://www.cleverbridge.com/691/uurl-g61d6368j1
Is this a valid offer supported by Powerarchiver? In other words, is the license real and will it also give me the oppertunity to upgrade to the 2011? Is it the same lifetime license as offered on your own site? Because I read the license codes changed from version 2010 to 2011 and to get a new one you had to login to you site, but if you buy it from cleverbridge, how you would you obtain a new license code then?

My advise for anyone reading this and thinking “Hmmm ill buy that from cleverbridge” would be Dont!!
Always buy from source, as far as I am aware ConeXware sell direct ie from source. It might be possible these guys are a reseller but im not aware nor have i ever in 6 years heard from the PA Team about Cleverbridge…
My guess is they have a volume of purchased licenses and maybe they have upgraded to 2011 or another supplier as such are selling off their old licenses… “that isnt illigal, but it can infringe on T&C’s”
If a user wants basic free zip use PA 2010 Free, that should tick 100% of all current compression requirements. Anything more advanced like FTP, Outlook email, backup facility then my advise would be to buy PowerArchiver 2011.
If any user has any other questions before buying just ask and either myself or any of the alpha team / developer team will be more than happy to help, advise and guide you through the process.

Okay, I don’t mind paying for the pro version, only the offer seemed ok. Think I’ll stick to buying it here then.
Thanks for your response!

in this case you are still buying from us, just via special offer from softpedia i believe?
so it is real offer, you get account auto created once you order and you. can login to get free upgrade to Pa 2011
