Hello!
I’ve just created SFX-Archives both from ZIP and 7z-Archives and none has an Icon as it seems.
I use the new version 22.00.11.
Zwischenablage_10-22-2024_01.jpg
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?
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

FTP connection

Good day to all,
I can’t even get a single FTP connection, passive mode, port 21.
Been trying many sites, with no success.
I got KIS 2012, with PA autorisations all on green…
Could you please help ? -
maybe if you send it to me (drazen) via email, i could try the same sites myself and then let you know (in confidentiality).
-
hi drazen,
no problem with confidentiality, try this one :
ftp.kaspersky.com
anonymous login
-
Ironically I reported this as an issue over a month ago after a change was made during Beta trials and still to this day i have issues.
the frustrating this is i know the ftp feature worked great before a particular amendment was made.
Let me know if you get this working as it should!
-
thank you
that might be a small bug, it used to work well with the precedent version -
I am not having this problem so I suspect there is a setting somewhere. . . .
Still, it would be nice to figure out where it is.
-
thanks, i’ll try to look forward for any settings i could have missed, but no big hope, was on it all last evening !
-
I couldn’t connect to ftp.kaspersky.com but I’m having no issues with any of my own sites.
I realise that information doesn’t help matters but I thought I’d report it anyway.
I was however able to connect to kaspersky using ‘cuteftp’strange that I can connect with some sites using anonymous login in PA
but using cuteftp I have no issues at all. -
thanks
i too can connect with kaspersky with filezilla, but not with PA
-
Good day !
Me again, with FTP.
When you try anonymous login, password is set as an email adress, right ?
but PA doesn’t remember that adress, ,even after saving…hope it can help.
bye. -
you can put anything as the password in anon login, i dont think anyone actually puts their email anymore.
so you have to write in password each time?
-
hi,
yes, rewriting PW is needed each time
-
Anonymous password not saved when changed manually and not connecting to Kaspersky’s server either
logged them in, thanks guys!
-
I’m still having loads of issues with my PA working on ftp… its eaither not connecting or really slow doings so.
Dam shame!

Dam shame!
well thank you for submitting proper report!
-
well thank you for submitting proper report!
I am pritty sure i did post a explanation and no one could submit a real answer. ie everyone seemed to be fine and me being the only one with this issue we shrugged it off as my system.
Like i said, it connects at times then stops. Yet if i connect through windows FTP in windows explorer it has no problems neither does any other FTP program.
Yet i enter the same details into PA FTP and it either stays on connecting for ages then connects and is fine or it just doesnt work.
its a very strange thing… because during alpha testing in its 1st month it worked like a charm! in my mind its every since the bug was fixed with the password box thats when i think i had issues… but i did report that in a thread and no one could answer me because theres was fine.
hense why i mention it now.
-
we will update the ftp and see what happens then.

I am not having any trouble connecting or uploading, either from the FTP window or the shell.
On the other hand, I cannot delete files on the remote site using PA’s FTP.

this works with other utilities? Or is it due to lack of permissions?
-
Never had the problem before with any other FTP or remote connection.
I don’t think I even had the problem with some earlier version of FTP within PA.
-
Please try this version:
http://www.powerarchiver.com/test/alpha120/powarc120201.exe -
I can now delete files . . . no problem.
