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).
New version:
PowerArchiver 2023 - 22.00.10:
Download:
https://u.powerarchiver.com/pa2023/powarc220010.exe
New build for some bug fixes and issues - full list to come with new update. Please test and see if you have any issues.
Thanks everyone for your assistance!
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

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/

As it seems, that PowerArchiver and PACL use the 7zip libraries, could you please update them to the latest version?
[FIXED] Self Extracting EXE + Extract To… + Extract to Filename\ subfolder
-
I downloaded the latest Nvidia drivers which are in a self extracting executable. Right clicking on the file and going to “Extract To…” context menu brings up the “Extract” dialog box as usual.
In here I click the “Extract to filename\ subfolder” check box then pick my directory to install to and click “Extract”.
The folder is never created with the name of the file, instead all the files are directly extracted to the selected directory.Example:
I told PA to extract to “C:\Nvidia Drivers” which should have created a sub folder called “285.62-notebook-win7-winvista-64bit-international-whql.exe” and extracted the files\folders there, but it just extracted them to “C:\Nvidia Drivers”.
-
you told it to extract to that directory if you wanted it to extract the files into its subdirectories you should of selected that.
Powerarchiver only extracts where you tell it.

AluminumHaste,
If you do the same thing but from Main PA, open archive in main PA>click extract Button>Check same option, does it work then?
Seems to work fine in main PA for me, but not through shell. -
logged in for fixing!

Seems to work fine in main PA for me, but not through shell.I will try that now thank you.

you told it to extract to that directory if you wanted it to extract the files into its subdirectories you should of selected that.
Powerarchiver only extracts where you tell it.
No crap lol, re-read my post I did exactly what you just said and it didn’t do it.:rolleyes:
-
Okay opening the exe with PA then telling it to extract works correctly.
It only fails to extract to sub directories when you use the right click context menu to select “Extract To…”If you want to try this your self I’ve used 2 different exe’s on two different computers. The last one I just tried was this one:
http://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/285.62/285.62-desktop-win7-winvista-64bit-english-whql.exe
-
thanks, Mili will write it up.
-
please patchbeam the latest update to see if this has been fixed… thank you!
