    • PowerArchiver 2022 Final does not find external DVD-Burner

      U

      I have tried to burn a DVD with PowerArchiver 2022 Final, but it didn’t work because PA didn’t found the external DVD-Burner.
      I have tried several burners from Sony, LG, Dell.
      I have connected the burners with several USB-Ports but unfortunately without any success.
      With other burning software, e. g. Nero, all burner worked perfect on each USB-Port.
      The same problem occured with PA2018 and it was solved with an update, but I don’t remember the detailed software version.
      Could you check the possibility of an bug, please?

    • PowerArchivier don't save Created and Accessed timestamp

      Quando creo un archivio zip con un altro programma ad esempio Winrar se apro il file con Winrar vi sono visualizzati anche le date originali di Accesso e Creazione.
      Se ottimizzo quel file zip con la funzione Ottimizza archivio di PowerArchivier (o creo un nuovo archivio) il file risultate non ha più le date originali di Accesso e Creazione.

    • Unlisted pbs files

      pirrbe

      Upgraded from 2021 to 2022. Selecting ‘backup’ no scripts are showed. Only after editing and saving an existing script (explorer) it shows up in the PA backup folder.
      So is the ‘backup’ icon to open the Backup screen only for creating ‘new’ ones. This means that you have to open ALL your old pbs files and to save them again… not user friendly.
      No way to improve this ? Thank you.

      Hi,

      I have a 31" 4K screen with 3840x2160 pixel, which PA is able to handle - except of a scaling other than 100%.
      When changing scaling for this screen to 125%, starting PA brings the following exception:

      Access violation at address 0000000..DF47A4 in module 'powerarc.exe'. Schreiben of address 0000...00330.

      After closing this message, PA seems to work fine.

      Is there any chance to avoid this access violation or this message?

      Hi,

    • PA Starter - CPU Overhead

      PA_Fan

      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.

          But a question.

          I didn’t think you used to be able to delete single files in 7z? Or was that only with a solid archive?

            Don’t know about a solid archive. This problem was in ver. 11.71.04. Upgraded in hopes it was fixed. Right now my only work around is to extract and re-compress using the ‘Encrypt filenames’ option.

                Sounds like the process in which is recompiles the archive doesnt include encrypting the names again.

                PA team should have a new version out soon, it contains many bug fixe’s so its worth keeping your eye open and updating patchbeam so it checks on start.

                  My observations:
                  1. If solid archive is selected in the 7-zip format and Optimized, LZMA or LZMA2 is selected, the Delete is unavailable.

                  2. If solid archive is selected in the 7-zip format and Store is selected, the Delete is available.

                  3. If solid archive is selected in the 7-zip format and PPMd is selected, the Delete is unavailable, but the file names are NOT encrypted.

                        I was initially perplexed when one user talked about exactlng a single file from a 7z file.

                        I thought that perhaps this was a new development.

                        I realize the problem is more complex.

                        Suppose. when I create an archive, I create a 7z file; then I can delete an individual file without a hitch (although it then no longer hides the names of the individual files – still a problem).

                        But I tried something else.

                        If I CONVERT the file from zipx to 7z, the option to delete an individual file is greyed out, whether it was a solid archive or not.

                        So perhaps there’s a hitch in the convert program (which is one of the great features of PA).

                                  I think I must be misremembering the thread. My 7zip filenames are hidden until to enter the encryption key.

                                  Is there some special way you are adding the files?

                                  It is true that it doesn’t do it automatically from the shell (compress to 7 z) . . . but that is because (as far as I can tell, that is not an option when determining compression profiles.

                                  BTW, I am still using 12.12.

                                            The bug is still logged into our system from initial report. Going to put it on the next list of bugs to be taken care of, so let’s see what happens!
                                            Thanks for bringing it up again!

                                              I can confirm as well.

                                              Don’t know enough about 7zip to know if this is a common problem with non-solid 7 zip encrypted files, or if it is unique to PA.

                                                      I checked this out. I had been a problem before version .22.

                                                      It is not a problem anymore.

                                                        If I convert an encrypted zipx file to a 7zip file, it doesn’t encrypt the 7z file. Perhaps it would be too difficult to do, but it if wasn’t, it would be a nice touch.

                                                          I cant see how it’s too hard to do as PA technicaly exports to a temp location and then re-compresses the folder into the required format.

                                                          If it can encrypt a file or folder’s names from scratch surely it should a convertion?

                                                          it sounds like there is a bug within the convertion tool itself.

                                                              it seems to remove encryption completely when converting encrypted files

                                                                That’s why I found too. But perhaps there is no simple way to keep it.

                                                                But since you have to enter the encryption key to convert it . . . I thought it would be nice to use the same key for the new archive.

                                                                    S 1 Reply Last reply Reply Quote 0

                                                                      However, PA has to know that it is encrypted since it asks me for the password before it can convert the file.

                                                                      And, since it already “has” the password (I had to enter it) why couldn’t it use that password when creating the converted archive?
