It would be nice to be able to at least extract Zstandard archives.

I prefer to use light themes, and when, for example, I have set up my main archive screen to be Classic Toolbar with Blizzard Blue, files in the archive are highlighted (no checkboxes, full row select) with white text on grey background. They are easy to see .
However, in the Add screens, the files and folders are black type upon a pale blue background, which is not so readily visible, especially when highlighting separate files in lists with Ctrl/Click for addition. It would be ideal if the backgrounds to files in these screens could be set to mimic the highlighting of those in the main archive window.
I have tried experimenting with different themes and settings for skins, toolbars and so forth, but, unless I’ve missed something, none seem to give me the effect I want.

Re: Windows 11 Context menu support
It would really make me happy if you put .BH in the Windows 11 context menu. I know it’s in the “More Options” section, but this would make it more convenient. Don’t know why the option to add it to the menu isn’t there in the first place. P-L-E-A-S-E ??? :) Thanks You!

Any chance of including this format in a future release?

Exceptional compression levels.
Thanks.

Now that the Windows Store is making support for non-UWP apps mainstream, including those with their own update delivery process, it would be nice to see PowerArchiver in the Windows Store going forwards - at least as a channel for the product to be available.

Tell us what features you want from new format…

In Windows 11 a new explorer context menu is introduced.
The “old” context menu may still be accessed through an additional mouse click, to reach the PowerArchiver context menu functions, but this isn’t comfortable at all.Could you add PowerArchiver items to the first level (and ideally disable the Windows native ZIP entry)

I’m surprised that OneDrive for Business isn’t supported. I can’t link my company’s OneDrive account, but a personal (free) account works fine.

Hi,
I’d like to propose an improvement for password protected archives.
Actual behavior is:
If I open an archive, which is password protected and make a typo in the password dialog, I’ll get the message, that the password was wrong and I end up with an empty window. I need to reopen the archive to be able to enter the password again.Improved behavior:
Tell me, that the password was wrong and give me the chance to enter the correct password to decrypt the archive. -
Hello!
I know I have been asking for this feature some time ago, but as nothing has changed let me ask again:
The ZIPX-format offers an algorithm, that compresses JPEG-files by about 20-30%. Please add compression (packing) support for this in ZIPX-archives to Powerarchiver. Extraction of JPEGs packed into ZIPX by this algorithm is already supported by Powerarchiver for a long time, so it should not be difficult? Or is it a licensing problem?
Thanks! -
Hi,
I’d like to suggest, that the correct archive type is (always) selected, when adding files by drag & drop to an archive.
This is already happening if the archive has the correct extension. For example, if I’m adding files to test.zip, zip will be selected. If I’m adding files to test.7z, 7z will be selected as format in “Add dialog”.
But this won’t be working, if the archive has not the “right” extension.
So XPI files (Firefox addons) for example are ZIP files. PowerArchiver opens them without any problems, but if I try to add file by drag & drop, PowerArchiver won’t auto select “ZIP”, but use the last selected archive format, while PowerArchiver already knows, that I’m trying to add files to a ZIP. -
I love this, only there is one problem. The UAC elevation feature does not extend to Mount Image option in the add-on software PA provided. It is most annoying whenever I am on highest UAC settings and I mount an ISO, every time I open and create a virtual drive UAC appears. I also do not want to completely disable UAC.
Is adding UAC elevation for mount image feature possible?
-
The now defunct Bulkzip had Nanozip (nz) as an option this would be great to have for compatibility with my .nz files, so I don’t have to install Bulkzip separately.
Better iso support
-
better handling of all iso formats please as pa is limited to certain iso versions.
-
what ISO versions?
-
PA is limited to certain iso versions.
News to me??? i’ve never experienced any issues with ISOs. now that may be because i dont deal with them as much as you.
Keen to know what format.
-
I created a disc image with clonecd iso by the way and powerarchiver couldnt open it.
Another instance is that i have old iso very first versions of the iso format and pa cant seem to open them. I have iso over 4gbs which powerarchuiver has trouble opening. is there a size limit to isos powerarchiver can open
Can powerarchiver edit non-standard ISO image files?
-
Cheers David, I rip DVD’s with AnyDVD and CloneDVD all usually over the 4gigs. But have never had an issue with opening them with PowerArchiver and that goes back years.
However, you have raised a good point so on my next RIP i will play around more with PA and see if i have any read, write issues at any point.
If i find anything, i will post it here. Thanks Fella.
-
if the iso has a loads of directorys inside each other pa seems not to be able to open them, wwell not surprising as winrar can’t either. its a fault with the iso format itself.
-
I have tested iso made by hacking groups only to see how powerarchiver handles them and they seem not to open. Though it could be down to them, being corrupt. Though i have heard you can repair iso in the same way you can zip files can we have that feature.

thats a valid point for a request mate!! some form of PA ISO Integrity check and repair function…
Spot on!
-
point to make how do you know if a iso is corrupt with pa if other archivers work ok with it?

Hi,
I did have an issue a while back. I downloaded a kosher ISO (a Linux Distro based on Gentoo) IIRC. I wanted to have a peek inside the ISO before I used it. I complained to the webmaster that the ISO must be corrupt as it would not open in PA. Turns out the ISO was okay, but PA would not read it. This was the first and last time I have come across the issue.
