Will PA 2022 still support windows 10 as majority of people can’t upgrade and won’t till 2025

Hello,
PowerArchiver Command Line 7 support file greater than 2 Go ?
Thanks
-
I’ve found a bug when trying to test an encrypted, 28-volume 7-zip archive of a 18.3 GB folder containing 41,751 files. The test fails, showing errors in all files.
Here’s the folder I compressed, and the 28 resulting files:Archives
Here’s the multi-volume compressed file opened in PA, showing the total file count and the full archive size:Opened in PowerArchiver
And here’s the test results screen after I click Actions -> Test…, showing an incorrect file count and archive size (this seems to be the file size of the first volume alone):Testing results
One important detail about the test screen above is that PA opens an UAC prompt asking for privileged execution before starting the test. Is this the expected behavior? It seems PA wouldn’t need higher execution privilege since everything it’s touching is owned by my own user.
In any case, granting or denying the UAC prompt results in the exact same screen.
Now, if instead of testing the archive I tell PA to extract the contents, the operation works fine (and with no UAC prompts):Extracting
With the Properties panel for both folders, the original and the extracted one, showing the exact same file count and total size:Extract results
I hope this helps. 🙂

Hi,
Currently on the 2021 20.00.55, updated, and licensed.
I have been facing this issue since 2019 version.
Queues don’t actually do anything
That I run powerarchiver starter as admin, or without admin.Then I queue some files, and most of the files take forever, to go from 1% to 2%
and let’s say if the 5th of total 10 files are stuck that should mean the other 4 should be completed, but no, the directories are just like that.
Using Queue feature makes the Powerarchiver to process and compress files, but the PA archives do no appear, neither the disk’s total used space changes.
However if I manually compress files without queuing, no matter if I run multiple compression or one by one, there’s always success.
sometimes compression is stuck at certain percentage for a 50 or 200 MB file, forever.
I want to speed up multiple compression, I find the batch compression feature useless, as I cannot configure any custom parameters or advanced option under PA archive format
So, Let me save parameters(Advanced Option) of Profiles
i) Either I should be able to customize PA Default profile, so I don’t have to select files and manually select profile, but not even single parameter can be saved
ii) Or I should be able to create a new profile and be able to set that as default.
It’s end of 2020 and I have been trying to reach Powerarchiver team to add this, but no one wants to listen or do anything.Refer case PA-FCW-TLNFM-096
I still cannot save parameters under advanced options like DDL/EXE filter to delta, or PNG PDF Filter, or set zlib to 9 or dictionary size or experimental stuff.
Soo many Revisions and versions released but I still cannot have a profile saved with whatever I want, be it existing or new profile.
Don’t you guys at Powerarchiver labs get frustrated everytime you have to configure these parameters manually?
When I stop an ongoing compression process, that is stuck or let’s say it’s not stuck but I click on cancel and then on No, it still continues compression for no reason.
If I start compression and pause, the progress bar shortly(progresses) reaches to completion, but no compression is done, and then archive is stuck forever
Just cancel itFor all my claims above I have sent ticket today with screenshots from my registered email.
if you can:
Batch archive is good idea, but if I have multiple directories inside directories, then I want first child directory to have all of it’s subdirectory compressed to that same first child directory
Example
I have a folder in D:\pics
that folder has following folder
Cats
Dogs
FishesEach of the above folder has sub folder:
Black
White
Fluffy
ColorfulI want those sub folders(black, white, colorful, fluffy) not to be compressed individually, but the cats, dogs and fishes folders to be compressed individually
-
The support doesn’t answer my email about a license question for weeks, because despite a lifetime license Powerarchiver refuses some functions

Dear PowerArchiver Team!
As I unfortunately found out, there is a big bug in Powerarchiver, which causes the compression rate to drop really significantly! I wonder if no one has noticed this yet? Are you guys still actively developing?
The following error occurs! (This is already as I find a blatant error!).ERROR:
File extensions and formats are not recognized automatically! If a file name e.g. Mütze.jpg is simply “renamed” in Mütze.txt, or
Mütze.png, Mütze.mp3, Mütze.pdf etc. each time a DIFFERENT compression algorithm is performed on the SAME FILE! Remember! The file extension was only renamed, so the file extension e.g. from .jpg to .txt is only by Rename changed! Just take a .jpg or .txt or .pdf file and change the file extension, you will see see this error! No headers are read automatically! Is this really wanted?Then the perfect compression algorithm can never be found and optimized by PowerArchiver? You should investigate this dramatic error once absolutely!Greetings from your trusty Konglomat!
Please stay healthy and make PowerArchiver more powerful than ever! I am looking forward to future updates! You are still awesome! Please keep up the good work! I love PowerArchiver, really more than just about anything!And will probably buy and use it for eternity!

There would be many of us with Intel Processors.
and they have their own optimized zlib algorithm, which can result in more efficiency if used combined with their hardware processor.
Reference:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/zlib-compression-whitepaper-copy.pdfCan we get the same Functionality Under Hardware Acceleration Feature?
Zlib is not the only feature that intel has included with their processor, there’s many, which if combined can result in efficient and better compression ratios.

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.7989017c-3cd2-4a99-a1f6-06ce62329dec-image.png
“DisableClouds” and “DisableExplorer” seem not to be respected at all, while the classic UI seems to respect the setting to disable any other unused module:
In settings I won’t be able to access the SmartAI settings and the settings for the internal editor if the FTP module is disabled

Hi! I came across an issue when I tried to uninstall PowerArch 2013. I got an error “The specified account already exists” which broke the process. I got the same error when I tried to install the current version, without uninstalling the previous one.
So I can’t uninstall and I can’t install PowerArchiver. Any suggestions? OS Windows 8.1 x64.Dariusz

When viewing a zip archive with .TGA image files (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truevision_TGA) the file preview shows Unknown Picture File Extension (.tga).
Seems strange that such an old image file format is not supported. -
Hi,
I’m using Convert Archives on a local folder of .zip files, converting them to .lzh files, and I’m finding that perhaps 1 in 75 files is actually converting and outputting a file. Even then, the .lzh file is incomplete, missing most of the source files.
The progress bars completes OK, say 75/75 files, but only one .lzh file exists in the output folder.
It seems to be the same with different source and output folders on both local and USB disk - I can’t see a pattern.
The files extract and compress (to .lzh) without issue on their own.
Is there a log file I can check please, to see why PA does not like these files as part of the batch conversion?
Thanks very much, Rich.

Hello. My problem with Powerarchiver is as follows:
First of let me say that I am running a Windows 7 Starter edition on my Toshiba NB505 laptop. You can see my specs if you google it. Needless to say that it has very limited resources and has low ram and roughly 1.66 GHz Atom processor.I am currently using the latest version of PA. But mostly the tasks I do with it are create and uncompress zip files, as this comes in handy with my needs for compressing older files which I dont need. There is where it comes my issue with program and it is just that version after version it becomes harder for my computer to load and create zip files and 7zip ones. Needless to say that the same goes for zipx.
I have been using PA for a decade and its a good program but it is just that the current version has things which I don’t need or seldom use it, such as the preview file panel, and also the explorer tabs, skin customization and the nagging conexware update tool. Thus I was just asking, Does it exist a minimalistic version of PA or perhaps some ultra light version of it?. Something which it can be run on older computers.
Please don’t say to install an older version or going back to 2003, as well, this is not what I had in mind. I know that I could use the command line version but for me usng a GUI is more convenient. Regsrding compression speeds, I mostly use deflate for legacy zip files on the fast setting.
So far what I am doing is to set PA to use the classic skin windows view and while it does alleviate some of the lagging symptoms it doesn’t really seem to make the program to run or load faster.
Any help or advice on my problem?. By the way, I use the PRO version as that’s my current license. By the way, does PA has any pdf user’s manual or reference book? I see there are changes and numerous functionality that has been added but I have no clue on how to use it. I hope somebody could help me with that as well.

Converting an archive to .zip (using both the “Deflate (.zip, compatible)” and “Store” compression methods) always creates a .zipx file instead.
pa-convert-zip-1.jpg
pa-convert-zip-2.jpgUsing the “Store” method sometimes creates a .zip file; I have seen it happen just now, but I cannot reproduce it.

Re: Using the Queue Feature affects Compression Ratio negatively
I’m sorry if the dev team is affected by pandemic, and if anyways that is affecting their quality to provide quality software.
But honestly, it’s been an year I have been complaining about the queue feature, it is taking them ages to fix.
referencing the above bug, I have been waiting patiently, but the bug isn’t fixed at all.
The old queuing bug where PA gets stuck randomly, isn’t fixed either.
The Bug where you keep 10-15 files in queue at once, will cause the software to miss few in queue.
and sometimes it would compress into a corrupt archive, so you have to manually open each archive and make sure everything is there as expected.
There’s way too many bugs, and I see none getting fixed.
I’m disappointed with this software.
I should have sticked to 7zip or given a shot to other archivers than this, at least they don’t provide update once in 4 months and fix nothing.

Hi guys,
I have some mistakes today with PowerArchiver Installation with GPO.
I checked permissions of the share folder and I already installed some app from this.
I have downloaded 32b and 64b it’s the same problem.
App is on the install list of the GPO, but don’t install on the client. All app can be install but only powerachiver not. What the hell !So i tried :
Checked : security of share folder --> ok (install of other app ok!)
RSOP checked --> nothing special
(obviously force GPO, multiple reboot)Can you help me please ?

PA 11.xx and 12.xx crashes Nero Burning ROM
-
I have had a problem for some time now with PA 2010 (any version of 11.xx) and 2011 (any version of 12.xx) where Nero Burning ROM 10 and 11 crash if I have “Use Explorer Shell Extensions” checked in either PA 2010 or PA 2011. If I uncheck this option in PA 2010 or PA 2011 then Nero doesn’t crash. The crash usually occurs when I drag and drop from the source window pane in Nero to the destination window in Nero. Sometimes Nero crashes after I choose DVD boot ROM and then click on the “New” button in Nero to continue. The error message that pops up says “Nero Burning ROM has stopped working…, check for online solution or close the program”.
I have tried and verified this on two different computers using two different operating systems (XP and Win7 x64) and I get the same results. I have also re-imaged my hard drive and installed a minimal system of XP SP3 and then Win7 SP1 x64 to eliminate any other possible programs influencing this crash and even with either OS installed with only the MS updates I still get the crash in Nero 10 and 11 when I use either PA 2010 or PA 2011 without unchecking " Use Explorer Shell Extensions".
However, if I use PA 10.22 then both versions of Nero (10 and 11) work fine. But any version of PA 11.xx or PA 12.xx cause Nero 10 and 11 to crash if I don’t uncheck “Use Explorer Shell Extensions”.
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks
-
According to a posting on Nero forums, there is a problem with “shell extensions” (from various utilites)
http://forum.my.nero.com/index.php?showtopic=12061@Nero:
In some cases, if Nero BurningROM crashes while using the file browser, the crash may be caused by installed shell extensions from 3rd parties.
Just try to add files from your Windows Explorer to thecompilation instead of using the Nero File Browser. If this works then most likely such an extension is causing the problem.If that works, then you have a workaround whilst the actual problem is investigated.
if I use PA 10.22 then both versions of Nero (10 and 11) work fine.
That is interesting and may provide PA support with some clues.
Kudos for doing all that checking/testing by the way :cool:

I just tried using the Windows Explorer instead of the Nero File Explorer and I was able to drag and drop. However, there are times when Nero will crash even before I get to the Nero File Browser. Occasionally it crashes when I just select DVD Boot and select “New”. Selecting “New” should bring me to the Nero File Browser but It crashes as soon as I click on the “New” Button. I realize that this still doesn’t rule out third party extension problems. But….
A short time ago I installed Windows 7 SP1 fresh from my ISO. After the installation I just installed Nero Burning ROM 10 and then PA 2011. I didn’t install any other programs, nor did I install any drivers or any MS Updates. So the Windows 7 SP1 installation consisted of Windows 7 SP1 x64, Nero 10 and PA 2011 and nothing else. And when I ran Nero it did crash often. I think should rule out any installed shell extensions from third parties being the potential culprit since there where none installed. ;)
Kudos for doing all that checking/testing by the way
:cool:You’re welcome.
I can easily re-image my system for Windows 7 SP1 x86 or x64 and also for XP x86 (no vista…yuck!). So if you want me to try a particular OS installation for you then let me know what you would like installed and tested and I will do my best. I have Nero 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 and PA 10.22, 11.xx, 12.xx. BTW, Nero 6 works fine with PA 2010 and PA 2012 (never crashes). I haven’t tried Nero 7, 8 or 9. Also, the Free version of PA (PowerArchiver 2010 Free 11.63.12) also crashes Nero 10 and 11.
FYI, I just tried the new PA 2012 beta 1 this afternoon and it also crashed Nero 10 if I have “Use Explorer Shell Extensions” checked.
Hope this information helps. :)

If it’s a problem between PowerArchiver shell extensions and Nero, I would expect it to happen with 2012 beta as well, but the clarification is good.
Just to clarify - PowerArchiver would be one of those “3rd parties” that does install shell extensions.
I wasn’t implying that there was yet another utility involved.
Also, I’m not saying that PowerArchiver is at fault here. It could be a problem in Nero that is “found” by ANY utility using “particular” shell extensions - that’s implied by the post from their forum.At least you have two (clumsy) workarounds -
a) use Win file explorer with Nero
b) disable PA shell extensionsUntil a solution is found.
Now it’s up to the PA devs to investigate further.
(look for responses from spwolf, mili or ivan).
The rest of us are customers like you. -
Thanks Terry, I will be watching.

Top Notch Feedback Peeco!

spwolf, I tested pa 2012 beta 3 with Nero 10 and Nero 11. In Nero 10, before I updated it with the latest updates, I was able to create a new compilation and drag and drop files and folders using the Nero file browser much better than with pa 11 and pa 12. Nero 10 still eventually crashed but it was after I opened and dragged numerous files and folders into the new compilation. With pa 11.xx and 12.xx often Nero 10 would crash upon opening Nero 10 and if Nero 10 did open then it would crash after opening just a couple of folders in the Nero file browser.
Now, here comes the interesting part. When I updated Nero 10 to the latest updates then it crashed more frequently. In the numerous times that I opened Nero 10 before the update it never crashed like it does with pa 11.xx and pa 12.xx. However, after the Nero 10 update Nero crashes about one out of every 3 or 4 times you open it. I don’t know if it will help, but my version of Nero 10 before the update is: 10.6.10600, and after the update is: 10.6.10700.
I then uninstalled Nero 10 and installed Nero 11 and Nero 11 crashed about as frequently with pa 2012 beta 3 as it does with pa 11.xx and pa 12.xx.
Once again, when I uncheck “Use Explorer Shell Extensions” in pa 2012 beta 3 Nero 10 and 11 work fine (no crashes).
Hope the information helps.

This issue has been logged in for a bit now.
I’ve reproduced the issue as you’ve mentioned it using Nero11 and PA 2012 Beta 3 and have added it to the logged in report. It will definitely help in locating the problem.Thanks for taking the time to let us know!

Success! I have run three separate compilations using Nero 11 and pa 13 rc1 and I tried my best to get Nero to crash but I could not. So, at this point it seems that rc1 has solved the Nero 11 crash issue when using the Nero file browser.
I have not tried Nero 10 yet with pa 13 rc1 but I will by Monday. I will let you know of the results.
If for some reason Nero 10 or 11 crashes in the future then I will let you know.
A BIG thanks for fixing this! Much appreciated. :D

cool… btw, Nero 11 install has to be the worst thing i have experienced in quite an while :-)

I actually use Nero 10 but I installed the Nero 11 trial version to test pa. I have heard that Nero 11 installation has not been a pleasant experience for some. Nero 10 isn’t much better. I haven’t upgraded since I see no reason to. It seems that Nero is getting worse and worse while pa keeps getting better! :D
BTW, I just installed Nero 10 and updated it and went through some simulated compilations to see if I could get it to crash and I couldn’t. So, it appears that Nero 10 works well with pa 13 rc1 as does Nero 11.
Good job to all! :)

Yea, that is what I was referring to also when I said it is getting worse and worse. I also was referring to it being bloated. That is why I only install Nero Burning ROM and not the multimedia package (though I have a license for it). I should have been more specific.
Again, thanks for fixing pa so that it now works with Nero.
