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.
Power archiver insult me with a big error message….

Hi,
I m using power archiver v6.0.0.5 (free version) with windows2000 sp4.
All my computers have the same hardware configuration and are masterized thank to an image file (.gho) so they are perfectly identical.
Unhappy i have in 25% of cases the following error message when i launch power archiver.“Access violation at adress 00054568B in module ‘POWERARC.EXE’. Read in adress 00000000”
After this message power archiver is running but without any icons in the toolsbar.
Does someone can help me about this problem, that will be very cool.
thx,
Yannis

I never used that version…too old…and maybe buggy, I dunno…
you can’t expect devs to still support that, I believe…anyway, there may be some incompatibilities with the operating system or other sw you have installed on your machines…
if you want to be sure about that, what you can do is, on a clean installed machine, put on PA6 and check whether it works. if id does, install a new software you need, then check again…an so on, you may well find the culprit!

that version is definqately not supported. I would move on up to the latest version of pa. I have been using pa ever scince it was free right up to its present status shareware. I have found no problems in paying for the sharware version. It does more things than winzip and support for it is second to none. I would recxommend upgrading its only a mere £25 and is well worth it.

In fact it s not a pb on software or os but an ntuser.dat corruption. :rolleyes:
Indeed my users was unable to update or add key in their registry without replace their ntuser.dat with a blank one.Thx davidsplash & manuangi for your help
