PA Queue does not compress file optimally with same parameters if used in Queue mode.
Being able to save advanced option, and set a default profile and archive type for compression so I can save clicks.
The above two are majorly affecting my efficiency with archiving stuff with PA 20.10.03.
Can someone confirm if they are resolved with the 2022 RC1?

Hi,
I thought, I’ll give it a try and upgrade my PA 2018 Toolbox on my production machine to PA 2021 (20.10.03)
Sending registration codes in your order recovery doesn’t seem to work at the moment (I also checked my junk folder), online activation works Using registry to disable modules (for example HKLM\SOFTWARE\PowerArchiverInt\General\DisableBurning) doesn’t work as expected with modern ui. The module is visible, but I’ll get the trial nag, if I try to open it. It’s almost fine in classic and ribbon mode.7989017c-3cd2-4a99-a1f6-06ce62329dec-image.png
“DisableClouds” and “DisableExplorer” seem not to be respected at all, while the classic UI seems to respect the setting to disable any other unused module:
In settings I won’t be able to access the SmartAI settings and the settings for the internal editor if the FTP module is disabled

I’m running W10 Pro on an HP i-7 machine with now 32gb of RAM. The system drive is an SSD.
In the course of sorting out some inconsistencies in a couple of my .pbs jobs, I’ve been paying close attention to the system CPU resource and power consumption of PA Starter, as shown by the various resource management tools. I’ve also been trying to identify why my system seems rather sluggish despite some extensive tuning for speed etc.
When I have enabled Starter as a start-up programme, to use the PA Queue facility, I see that Starter consistently uses between 10-13% of CPU, with High Power consumption indicated. It runs, consuming this resource, irrespective of what may be happening with PA and any pbs script jobs.
I can understand a need to use a good chunk of CPU when Starter is actually handling PA jobs, but it shouldn’t sit and consume this amount when it really isn’t doing anything but wait for a job to start and for which it is needed.
Perhaps I’ve missed a way of lessening Starter’s impact, but in the meantime I’ve adjusted my set-up to running PA without it.
Suggestions, please.

Bug: When I use the right button on any folder to bring up the menu and click on e.g. compress or decompress, the program still requires registration even if it is correctly registered. When working with the folder, via the running Power Archiver, everything is fine. (Windows 10 - v. 20.10.03)

Hi,
The window size is suddenly “large” Resizing the window to normal size works for the current action, but isn’t remembered The next time I’m using the shell extension, the window is large again, so it seems the size change isn’t saved
I’ve got a strange behavior with the progress window in PowerArchiver 2021 shell extension:The progress window of PowerArchiver itself has its normal size.
Is there a possibility to reset the shell extension window size?

There would be many of us with Intel Processors.
and they have their own optimized zlib algorithm, which can result in more efficiency if used combined with their hardware processor.
Reference:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/zlib-compression-whitepaper-copy.pdfCan we get the same Functionality Under Hardware Acceleration Feature?
Zlib is not the only feature that intel has included with their processor, there’s many, which if combined can result in efficient and better compression ratios.

I have a “USB2.0” DVD-RW drive with a blank 700MB CD-R inserted.

I’m using 20.10.02. When I try to drag files from an opened zip to a folder in Windows File Explorer, PA does nothing. It uses a CPU core and starts the clock, but no action is taken. I have to end task in task manager to get it to close.

I’ve found a bug when trying to test an encrypted, 28-volume 7-zip archive of a 18.3 GB folder containing 41,751 files. The test fails, showing errors in all files.
Here’s the folder I compressed, and the 28 resulting files:Archives
Here’s the multi-volume compressed file opened in PA, showing the total file count and the full archive size:Opened in PowerArchiver
And here’s the test results screen after I click Actions -> Test…, showing an incorrect file count and archive size (this seems to be the file size of the first volume alone):Testing results
One important detail about the test screen above is that PA opens an UAC prompt asking for privileged execution before starting the test. Is this the expected behavior? It seems PA wouldn’t need higher execution privilege since everything it’s touching is owned by my own user.
In any case, granting or denying the UAC prompt results in the exact same screen.
Now, if instead of testing the archive I tell PA to extract the contents, the operation works fine (and with no UAC prompts):Extracting
With the Properties panel for both folders, the original and the extracted one, showing the exact same file count and total size:Extract results
I hope this helps. 🙂

Hi,
Currently on the 2021 20.00.55, updated, and licensed.
I have been facing this issue since 2019 version.
Queues don’t actually do anything
That I run powerarchiver starter as admin, or without admin.Then I queue some files, and most of the files take forever, to go from 1% to 2%
and let’s say if the 5th of total 10 files are stuck that should mean the other 4 should be completed, but no, the directories are just like that.
Using Queue feature makes the Powerarchiver to process and compress files, but the PA archives do no appear, neither the disk’s total used space changes.
However if I manually compress files without queuing, no matter if I run multiple compression or one by one, there’s always success.
sometimes compression is stuck at certain percentage for a 50 or 200 MB file, forever.
I want to speed up multiple compression, I find the batch compression feature useless, as I cannot configure any custom parameters or advanced option under PA archive format
So, Let me save parameters(Advanced Option) of Profiles
i) Either I should be able to customize PA Default profile, so I don’t have to select files and manually select profile, but not even single parameter can be saved
ii) Or I should be able to create a new profile and be able to set that as default.
It’s end of 2020 and I have been trying to reach Powerarchiver team to add this, but no one wants to listen or do anything.Refer case PA-FCW-TLNFM-096
I still cannot save parameters under advanced options like DDL/EXE filter to delta, or PNG PDF Filter, or set zlib to 9 or dictionary size or experimental stuff.
Soo many Revisions and versions released but I still cannot have a profile saved with whatever I want, be it existing or new profile.
Don’t you guys at Powerarchiver labs get frustrated everytime you have to configure these parameters manually?
When I stop an ongoing compression process, that is stuck or let’s say it’s not stuck but I click on cancel and then on No, it still continues compression for no reason.
If I start compression and pause, the progress bar shortly(progresses) reaches to completion, but no compression is done, and then archive is stuck forever
Just cancel itFor all my claims above I have sent ticket today with screenshots from my registered email.
if you can:
Batch archive is good idea, but if I have multiple directories inside directories, then I want first child directory to have all of it’s subdirectory compressed to that same first child directory
Example
I have a folder in D:\pics
that folder has following folder
Cats
Dogs
FishesEach of the above folder has sub folder:
Black
White
Fluffy
ColorfulI want those sub folders(black, white, colorful, fluffy) not to be compressed individually, but the cats, dogs and fishes folders to be compressed individually

Dear PowerArchiver Team!
As I unfortunately found out, there is a big bug in Powerarchiver, which causes the compression rate to drop really significantly! I wonder if no one has noticed this yet? Are you guys still actively developing?
The following error occurs! (This is already as I find a blatant error!).ERROR:
File extensions and formats are not recognized automatically! If a file name e.g. Mütze.jpg is simply “renamed” in Mütze.txt, or
Mütze.png, Mütze.mp3, Mütze.pdf etc. each time a DIFFERENT compression algorithm is performed on the SAME FILE! Remember! The file extension was only renamed, so the file extension e.g. from .jpg to .txt is only by Rename changed! Just take a .jpg or .txt or .pdf file and change the file extension, you will see see this error! No headers are read automatically! Is this really wanted?Then the perfect compression algorithm can never be found and optimized by PowerArchiver? You should investigate this dramatic error once absolutely!Greetings from your trusty Konglomat!
Please stay healthy and make PowerArchiver more powerful than ever! I am looking forward to future updates! You are still awesome! Please keep up the good work! I love PowerArchiver, really more than just about anything!And will probably buy and use it for eternity!

Hi! I came across an issue when I tried to uninstall PowerArch 2013. I got an error “The specified account already exists” which broke the process. I got the same error when I tried to install the current version, without uninstalling the previous one.
So I can’t uninstall and I can’t install PowerArchiver. Any suggestions? OS Windows 8.1 x64.Dariusz

Whilst I know not supported, only good to advise you at this time of installation issues.
During the install on CN W8 -Dev *64 the installer had an error at the part where it removed backup files.
I could see that Powerarchiver appeared to be installed and therefore launched task manager to close the hung installer.Powerarchiver launches and seems to work ok, other than the hang as mentioned in install.
The other thing to note is that the file association does not seem to work fully via the Powerarchiver interface, you click to apply, it seems to but does not. However when launching a example zip file with no associated icon, CN W8 dev asks what application to open with. When selecting Powerarchiver it changes the icon and remembers the selection.
As say, don’t expect support at this stage, it is to bring it to your dev’s attention to help aviod any issues further down the road.
-
hm, i wonder if both are due to Win8 buggies. Those things should stay the same in Win8.
-
could well be some issue with explorer in w8.
The only other bit of software I use which may have an issue pertaining to explorer is dropbox (selective sync) dialogue box does not appear.
At least it is something to keep an eye out for when the beta comes out. Always good to pass on findings rather than keep them to ones self :)
Have not come across any other Powerarchiver discrepancies since this morning, contextual menus work as they should - as does the main programme :)
-
absolutely… well it should be very much the same as Win7 when it comes to system things. So Windows Installer not working I would definitively call an bug.
Let us know if you notice anything else.
-
Hi spwolf, I have done some further testing this morning to manually uninstall the previous version a install the latest 1201.
During the uninstall I got the following screen shot of an error
then the uninstaller just hung.
During the install I got the following screen shot of an errorand then the installer just hung, leaving this on screen
Using task manager I closed the hanging apps.
Just for testing I did thereafter try WinRar to see how that would install, and that did not provide any install/uninstall errors.
Hope the above info gives you some Idea of the errors and more technical screen shot of code errors help.
PS also briefly caught glimpse of some message (not exact wording as it was quick) ‘installer database does not have the required logic to’
Kind Regards
Paul.

you can do this test - extract the pa installer, and run .msi file… does it work then?
-
Hi just caught me, off for weekend in a mo…
Just done as requested, extracted the setup file.
The .msi installed without any issues.The integration/association still does not default correctly,
you have to right click and open with, choose default program, which when selected changes the icons and defaults ok. Doing so within PA did not.Hope this helps :)
-
coool… thanks!
-
Just provide an update: Seems quite a few things I have installed do not automatically pick up the default viewer/app icons. You click on example a .pdf and then it asks what .pdf viewer out of the ones installed you like to open it with.
Am sure MS will improve explorer functionality by the Beta.
Regarding PA not come across any further issues :) -
You can check this installer here:
http://www.powerarchiver.com/test/alpha120/powarc120103new.exe -
let us know if this installs in Win8.
thanks!

Hi,
Just tested it on my VM for you. Unfortunately it sort of failed. It runs then stops with the error - after closing the error message it hangs on the final screen, removing backup files.
Hope this reply helps you.Error screen as included.

I have also just checked for you, as before - if the .msi is extracted that runs and installs fine.The only proviso to that ‘installs fine’ is what I believe a W8 issue where certain icons don’t show until initially selected with the open with dialogue. Once windows is informed example .zip is to open with PowerArchiver the icon shows for .zip
There are a few programmes that this icon issue happens with, so I personally believe nothing at this stage of W8 the icon issue is nothing to worry about - I would be more concerned if it was Beta…

@pjb:
Hi,
Just tested it on my VM for you. Unfortunately it sort of failed. It runs then stops with the error - after closing the error message it hangs on the final screen, removing backup files.
Hope this reply helps you.Error screen as included.

Much appreciated?

Hi,
I have extracted the file, and then ran the setup as requested from the extracted file.
It looked like it might go through quicker & ok, but then it failed. At a glance same error as before:[EXCEPTION_UNHANDLED] (0xc0000005) at address [0x761c7075]

Hi,
Please check if this improves it:

Just a quick thing i noticed… on a windows XP Pro SP3 OS.
When i downloaded 12.02.02… it said i didnt have admin rights… however, i do! so i uninstalled PowerArchiver and ran the Install again and it worked ok no issues…
So not sure if this is a bug, but it isnt allowing users to upgrade PA from Prior Versions.
EDIT: Just a quick note that on my Home Systerm Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit SP1 It updated the OS without an admin error message but then hung and prompted me to restart. After restart PA worked like a charm so no noticible curruption on install.
Sounds like the Install just needs updating, and checking on Older OS’s

-
can’t recall it in detail…very lengthy message which just indicated that I couldn’t install over a previously installed version…at the time I assumed you as the dev team had instigated a ‘clean’ installation only.
I realise now that this wasn’t the case…the clean installation however had no hiccups whatsoever.
I could probably recreate if you wish by reinstalling previous version ?

Hi sorry for the delay, only just seen it was updated.
Have tested powarc120202.exe on Windows 8 *64 and can confirm that: that installer worked well. The application installed without any errors.
The application works as it should. :)As such this issue I believe is now resolved and as such I believe this topic can be now marked as ‘Fixed’
Many Thanks. :)
