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.
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
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.
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

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/
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1164/
As it seems, that PowerArchiver and PACL use the 7zip libraries, could you please update them to the latest version?
Hi,
From where I get PAVD2023.EXE? PowerArchiver 2023 tries to open it.
But it seems, it tries to download PAVD2021.EXE.
Thanks
I noticed that the version of ZPAQ used is older than the latest released 7.15 https://mattmahoney.net/dc/zpaq.html also there seems to be a newer fork that adds several features https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz
It would be useful to implement this latest version (it also maintains the same syntax and behavior as the latest official release if used the -715 flag) and add when opening a zpaq file a choice of the version of the files to show (e.g. as dummy folders represented the various versions present). Since any previous changes are stored with this format, it is possible to extract a snapshot of a certain date/version.
If I open a password-protected zipper file (created with WinRAR but I think that’s irrelevant), open it with PowerArchiver and run “Remove Encryption” on the same file, then reopen it and add a password with “Encrypt Archive,” the resulting archive will be protected with the old ZipCrypto algorithm and not AES as indicated.
(this can be verified, for example, by trying to open the archive files with Windows Explorer, which does not support the AES algorithm)
PA 21.00.18 running on Windows 7 64 bit.
I made a big .PA file and thought I’d check it was made correctly with Menu / Actions / Test.
Discovered:
a) PA always issues a UAC prompt to do this!
b) PA always says there are many errors in PA files.
Difference between "Pro Legacy" and "Pro" without BitDefender?
-
Is there a difference between the following two license types:
- PowerArchiver 2011 Pro International Legacy
- PowerArchiver 2011 Pro - Personal - International
I ask because I have a license for the first and there’s an offer for an upgrade to the second in my account’s ‘Orders’ page. But I’m not clear if there would be any difference in functionality between the two licenses.
-
First one is better (it is full PA version)… keep in mind that our system is not smart when it comes to figuring out if you already upgraded.
but hey, we appreciate you looking into it :-)
-
2011 Pro Legacy = Toolbox without BD
2011 Pro = Pa Standard + Backup + PAOP + PACL (no Burner, FTP, VD) -
Thanks for clearing that up for me.

2011 Pro Legacy = Toolbox without BD
2011 Pro = Pa Standard + Backup + PAOP + PACL (no Burner, FTP, VD)without confusing the matter, my memory recalls you saying on a thread that Toolbox users would get additional benifits that Pro/Pro Legacy wouldnot like additional format support, and maybe more advanced features.
This at the time made perfect sense… why else call something toolbox if it didnt contain usefull “tools”??

@Sir:

Well Pro Legacy is PA 2010 and PA 2009 Pro version, which we advertised as ultimate PA.
So I dont want us charging same users twice for the same features. Hence, PA 2009 Pro and PA 2010 Pro getting Toolbox features, without BD.
We didnt split Pro into Pro and Toolbox to charge same people twice, it was simply due to the feedback from our large users (which are majority of our sales btw), that said something like: “we want some of the extra features of Pro, but our bosses dont want us to buy Burner or FTP when we already have them”.
So we split them into 2 versions - Pro, tailored for Business users, and Toolbox tailored for home users.
Now if Toolbox gets some extra tools in the future, thats something else. But I think it would be unfair to PA 2010 Pro users to charge them again for updates to Burner and FTP, when year before we told them they get unlimited updates.
I already told you that Toolbox users will get some extra stuff in the future, because they are the ones supporting us the most - we have people that purchased PA several times just to support development and show appreciation…
-
I think it’s just confusing because of the year adaptation for professional.
It makes sense now you put it like that. Basically powerarchiver pro is perfect for home andbusinesses who want the best but without external elements that they may have already. And toolbox is for home users who want the best powerarchiver with additional features such as antivirus and firewall!?
Personally i would carry on buying the most advanced tool powerarchiver can offer even if I don’t use al its features. Why? That’s my way of supporting the development, including my continued support within forums.
If you have other methods I could support conexware et me know, I will do my best to help.
