      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

      W

      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.
      C’è una opzione per preservare questi dati? (Non l’ho trovata nelle impostazioni del programma e ho già abilitato le opzioni “salva info complete cartella” presente in “Profili di compressione”)
      /
      When I create a ZIP archive with another program such as Winrar, if I open the file with Winrar, the original Access and Creation dates are also displayed.
      If I optimize that zipper file with the Optimize Archive function of PowerArchivier (or create a new archive) the resulting file no longer has the original Access and Creation dates.
      Is there an option to preserve this data? (I haven’t found it in the program settings and I have already enabled the “save complete folder info” options in “Compression Profiles”)

    • 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.

    • Access violation with scaling > 100%

      K

      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.
      PA version 21.00.15 (03/2022) 64bit (tested with Win 10 and after upgrade Win 11)

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

    • Problems with registry restrictions on PA 2021 and sending reg codes

      Hi,

      I thought, I’ll give it a try and upgrade my PA 2018 Toolbox on my production machine to PA 2021 (20.10.03)

      Sending registration codes in your order recovery doesn’t seem to work at the moment (I also checked my junk folder), online activation works Using registry to disable modules (for example HKLM\SOFTWARE\PowerArchiverInt\General\DisableBurning) doesn’t work as expected with modern ui. The module is visible, but I’ll get the trial nag, if I try to open it. It’s almost fine in classic and ribbon mode.

      I have a variety of comic book archive formats that I deal with:

      .cbr == RAR file
      .cbz == ZIP file
      .cb7 == 7z file

      I’m not sure if I did something myself to cause this, but I see that both CBR and CBZ files are listed under PA’s File Formats list in Options. In addition, the shell has those file types described as “PowerArchiver RAR File” and “PowerArchiver ZIP File” respectively. In the case of CBZ files, I can drag-n-drop with the right mouse button and get the drop menu actions I’ve got configured in Options - namely, Extract Here and Extract to <folder_name>. But for CBR files, I get no such drop menu action. Using an alternative File Manager (Directory Opus) I can force the drop menu to appear, but PA just creates an empty folder from ‘Extract to <folder_name>’ action. My guess is it’s trying to process the CBR file as if it were a ZIP format archive instead of a RAR format.

      Theories aside… is there an official way to add an extension to be treated like specific type of archive format? If the CBR and CBZ files appear in the File Formats list because they’re supposed to (and not because of somethign “I” did), then would PA not treating CBR files as RAR be a bug…?</folder_name></folder_name>

        this post should be in the wishlist. though has been asked for before. Basicall you want a windows style assocation window that ou can associates different formats too. I would much prefer if pa can automatically detect the format without changing the extention or having to associate the extension. this can be done

          steje, what version of PowerAchiver are you using?

          Check under “Configuration / File Formats” - near the bottom there should be an entry for both CBR and CBZ.
          Are these ticked (associated)?

          Edit: Just reread your post - sorry I misunderstood.

          Can you confirm that the shell extension options are correct for CBR. If so, then you may have found a problem.

          Adding extensions by user is already in wishlist

                  @__TBGBe__: I am using PA v12.12.03

                  And yes, I do have both the CBR and CBZ formats checked in the File Formats page under Options->Configuration. I don’t know how I can really “confirm that the shell extension options are correct for CBR”. The shell extensions are enabled to my preferences, and work on all other normal file extensions (most notably - all of the same CBR files simply renamed to RAR, extract fine using the drop-menu shell extension).

                  So… is PA defining these file associations itself? As I mentioned - I couldn’t recall if I had monkeyed around with Windows file type associations to make that happen somehow. If PA is already supposed to be ‘aware’ of CBR files - then it would seem this may in fact be a bug.

                  To davidsplash point… the ability to specify our own extensions (and either manually associate it with a known archive format - or have PA figure it out dynamically) would be great… but if PA is ‘supposed’ to know about CBR files - then I’d prefer to keep this thread focused on that topic rather than enhancement requests.

                  @__Mili__: by “logged in” - does that mean you’re acknowledging this is a bug - and it’s been logged with support or something?

                        Thanks for the replies…

                        @TBGBe: Yep - just wanted to be clear and specific.

                        About the context menu / shell extensions. I wasn’t (don’t) normally just right clicking on the file - I’m right-click drag and dropping to produce the ‘drop menu’.

                        In any case, if I right click on the CBR file… I get the ‘extract’ context menu option… It seems to run but extracts nothing. However, if I open that same file (without even renaming it to RAR ext) in the PA GUI… it lists the file contents fine, and I can then extract them from within the PA UI to a folder by either hitting the Extract button on the toolbar, or by dragging them from the PA UI to a folder.

                        So, it appears to be a bug in the context menu handler / shell extension…?
