Re: Explorer.exe Crash on right click
This appears to be happening again with the Power Archiver 2022 shell extensions.
When I have Use Explorer Shell Extensions enabled in Power Archiver Configuration and right-click on c:\Users\username\Start Menu, (hidden Junction file), File Explorer crashes.
I have version 21.00.15 (03/2022) 64-bit installed in Windows 10 Version 21H2 (Build 19044.1826).

Powerarchiver 2022
Right-click and select Encrypt on a folder does not work.
Although it says it encrypts, there is no encrypted file in the destination folder. -
The online update feature within the program suggests there is a later version than the ‘.17’ available on the web site. But clicking either download or update just reinstalls version .17.
Either there isn’t an update OR
the “download” and 'update" links should be repaired. -

Hi,
When you click on the Buy Now link, you come across four tabs - Home or Work, Enterprise Unlimited, Educational Discount, & Gift Discount.
What is the difference between a licence purchased via Gift Discount and a Home/Work licence?
Also, how can I renew the PowerArchiver Select plan a year after the purchase? Will it remind me automatically?
Best,

I’m running PA 21.00.17 64-bit on a 64-bit i7 desktop with W10 Pro, latest version. This 32gb of installed RAM.
As I use the PA pbs system for a number of scheduled archiving operations throughout the day, PA Starter is set to load and run at system startup.
In the course of trying to identify some causes of slowness and bottlenecks in other processes, I notice that PA Starter (PAS) always runs at between 11% and 15% of CPU (see screenshot), usually at about 12-13%. This is by far the highest demanding process on the system, as shown by Task Manager. In Performance Monitor, PAS Average CPU is 8.32, with every other process at less that 1 i.e. in decimal places only.
Task Manager also shows PAS Power Usage as “Very High”, and is the only process shown thus.
I have looked again at the information about PAS at https://wiki.powerarchiver.com/en:help:details:powerarchiver_starter, which was last modified in 2016. The article states a low memory usage for PAS of 784k, which is fair enough, but it is the large CPU overhead which is of concern.
It is of course possible to change the PAS priority, but this has no effect on CPU overhead.
However, is it possible to change PAS, which is required only at intervals to initiate PA scheduled tasks, from consuming so much system resource for every moment of the day?

I’m experiencing very slow extraction speed of multipart RAR files. For the first part the extraction is super fast but when PA reaches the part2.rar the extraction from there on gets super slow. PA needed for a 6,3 GB multipart archive 30 minutes to extract. I tested then with another program and it just took 70 seconds. I had this slow extraction speed with PA for quite a long time and I always thought that is maybe because of a high compression rate that the extraction would take longer. But it seems that only PA gets that slow.
I have lots of multipart archives that are 10+ GB and with PA it would be really time consuming. Is there any solution to this?

Hi. The “Move” Action seems to be Not Working when used in the Tool – Batch Archive.
Using the Options – Configuration – Compression Profiles ---- I created a Profile with the Action of Move. Also set were Zip, and Method Deflate.
When I use the Tool - Batch Archive – It appears to me that the Action Move does not Move the compressed files (basically add to zip, and delete the added file from original location on the same disk). Zip file(s) are created and look ok.
Typically I on the Batch Archive process – I have selected options to use a Profile with the Move Action.
File’s Current Folder Group files from same folder into same archive Add subfolders to separate archivesMy PowerArchiver version is 21.00.17 .
Can you reproduce ? – Or do you need additional details or information?

Hello,
PowerArchiver Command Line 7 support file greater than 2 Go ?
Thanks
-
i just registered my own copy and i need some help to set it…
if i set the ‘configuration>shell extension>open folder after extracting’ checkbox, after decompress an archive is opened the file manager on that folder but… if somebody is using a different file manager how to open XYplorer or Directory Opus for example and NOT the MS file manager?
consider this as a feature request also if not available within the 2022 version

I am looking for a way to stop the UAC elevation prompt when running Powerarchiver. In an old post about PA 2019, someone asked this and got a response to uncheck “all users” at the prompt but I am not seeing where one can do this. It definitely seems like the way to go though as if I click on “More Details” at the prompt I see that it is trying to run “_pautil.exe /paassociate /allusers /my(long binary string)”. Can you let me know? Thanks.
PS I tried renaming _pautil.exe and this worked, but I don’t know what the consequence of doing this may be so I would like to do this properly, thanks.

Just a question is Ashampoo zip pro 4 built by Powerrachiver as it is very similar and uses the pae encryption.

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.

I don’t know why that’s happening for you to be honest and don’t recall reading any similar report.
Best wait for one of the devs to see this thread as I’m sure they will get you sorted.Or you can contact support here.

txs luxor,

but then it restarts and the box to enter the serial is back again. what am i doing wrong?double check that you have correct code (for PA 2012), doublecheck that you are copy and pasting it… if that still doesnt work, try uninstall/install again.
Generally there hasnt been a single instance where codes were “bad” in past few years so doublecheck everything… and of course, you can contact support as usual and get pretty fast response.
thanks.

ok guys,
my version installed is 13.00.20 from 06/2012.
i downloaded this code from the shop:“PowerArchiver 2012 - Personal - International
Version 13.00 released Jun 1, 2012”when i open registering and enter this code, everytime again he ask me for trial or registering.
i think i will deinstall and reinstall the version 2011.:mad:

so i did a complete uninstall, cleaned up my registry,re-installed version 13, received a new key,and result is that it do not work. every start of the program i have to re-enter my key. pretty frustrating :mad:

If that is the registration code you received, please copy/paste it into PA 2012, it should register just fine.
No reason for it not to work. -

Yeah right. It’s the same drama every year. A new version of PA comes out, you’ve got several serials to pick from, and you don’t know which one’s gonna do it until you tried them all out.
In my case I had a PA 2010 standard international license and just upgraded to PA 2011 standard using the PA 2011 legacy (!) code. I had to have 3 codes resend and try them out. I’m sick of it. If every software supplier spoon-feeded me in this manner … :mad: 'nuff said, so dear ConexWare license managers please give me a break and do sort out your license codes, instead of having your customers do so - thank you. :mad:
btw, another captcha for posting a reply, is this really necessary? You need to re-learn the art of keeping things simple! -.-

well you are welcome to send us 2011 or 2012 codes that dont work and IF they really dont work, we will give you 10 licenses for free :-).
We do understand that people are impatient and that they dont have time to read things, so every time someone sends an email to support that code doesnt work, we try it out ourselves to verify that it does (or doesnt).
So if you have an problem, quick email to support and you will be helped, fast.
-
p.s. captcha goes away after few posts, unfortunately a lot of spam bots these days want to post all kinds of crap, we wouldnt have implemented it unless it was necessary as I personally hate it.

ok … now I’ve calmed down a bit. The registration was successful, I was just surprised that I needed to enter a serial clearly marked as legacy for a current product version. As I see people struggling here … apparently what’s going on is the label had been printed and the tin isn’t ready yet ;)
Anyway, I think software could be protected in a less bothersome way, like in-product-activation online for example. I have software pieces on my machine that have seen several major updates over the years, and I just need my original order number to re-activate it.
And your support team would be relieved of all those “my license doesn’t work” type of emails too.
Sorry for my temper, it’s late at night here and the day was a bit too long :)

this is what usually happens :-). We completely understand it though.
Reason it says Pro Legacy is that Pro has less features now, but since you purchased it before we give you features than new Pro versions dont have.
Online activation wouldnt be possible because of several factors, one of them being the fact that you are likely to use PA on not-connected computer and then it would suck :-). Plus you would still have to enter some kind of license. And we have people using PA since 2001, so cost of providing free updates would go up if we had to provide online servers for activation for 20 year period, all for the one-time price. It is very different with Antivirus as they charge per year.
We always try to improve the process but there is always going to be someone that does it too fast and doesnt copy the code properly, and who has time to read all those messages, right? :-). Which is why we try to be patient when someone yells at us… not many do actually!
I hope you enjoy improvements in new PA 2012.
thanks!

ok, i’m back, finally, after a lot of installs and de-installs the software is accepting my license code. but if i want to make a backup the programm tells me that the pro features are deactivated. altough i have a pro version. and why do the programm version 12.12 do an update to 13.00.20 (which is still beta) when i activated “only check for official version” ???

email support to check your account:
http://www.powerarchiver.com/support/maybe you have both standard and pro in your account so you clicked on PA 2012 Standard codes? Support can sort it out since they can easily see whats in your account.
As to the update - during the process, we decide when upcoming version is better than old official one and then we put it on update. So you dont have to wait for things like website changes for instance, which official version needs.
