@davidsplash: … why do we really need an internal viwer… Well, normally using associated applications would lauch an application which can do other things besides just show the contents. Remember the problems caused by the simple change to file extensions caused by the ILOVEYOU “virus” (.txt.vbs). If everyone used a simple file viewer for email attachments as well as archive contents, it would have made this a non-event. By default graphic files (gif jpeg) are associated with InterNet Explorer. This opens you to various virus/trojan attacks. And the various “helper objects” such as .scr/.vbs files are even more likely to be dangerous. Using a simple viewer which cannot/does not perform any running/launching of the file is usually much quicker, safer and less wasteful of system resources.

You can backup to USB stick in PA Backup as well, up to 3 different drives (including USB sticks) at the same time, plus dvd and plus ftp. Just select drive that USB stick is and it will back it up there.

Feature / Bug: MSI Plugin Uses Wrong File Name

Hello, I was reviewing the MSI plug-in and see that it is using the MSI File table column called “File” to list the filenames and for creating the file upon extraction. This column contains an abstracted file name, not the final file name that the MSI would create if installed. This is done so that the same MSI can contain multiple files with the same name - like when the same file “something.exe” needs a 32 bit and 64 bit version in the same package, but has the same name when installed on the target system. The “File” column is the key to the table and must be unique. The “FileName” column contains the name of the file as it would appear if installed by the package. This is a fairly frequent occurrence on Microsoft SDK MSIs which are exactly the kind I’d rather do an extract on than do a complete install. Would it be possible to change the plug-in to use the FileName column when displaying and extracting files? Thanks, D.

I took a few to toss together what might be the start of such a chart. I am sure the questions need to be more fine-grained (e.g., more file types). Some cells might just include a ‘Y’ or a ‘N’; for others we might rank the files (1,2,3). I realize this should go on the back burner 'til 2013 is fully out and you’ve had an update or two. And maybe ZTE. But I do think it would be a valuable service and could help sell PA. attachment_p_31522_0_which-formats-are-best-for-what-purposes.7z

great improvement ! You can even drag/drop from one panel/directory to the other panel/directory even multiple selected files. One question : does it request a lot of program coding to ‘automate’ this process ? Adding a ‘move’ icon, that you can hit after selecting files to activate the transferts ?
