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.
Got PA 2011, how to upgrade to PA 2012?

Hi there,
I just bought PowerAchiever Toolbox 2011, which said I have lifetime upgrades. When I try to input this key into PowerAchiever Toolbox 2012 RC2, it doesn’t register.
When I bought it said Lifetime Free upgrades. Now my I log into my account it ask for more money for PowerAchiever Toolbox 2012 RC2.
It looks like it is a scam and in this case I would like my money to be refunded.
Best regards,

- Perhaps there is a glitch.
OR
(2) Since Toolbox comes with Bit Defender —which is not a free lifetime update — perhaps the charge is for BD. I see no reason to think PA is charging for any update, and so now reason to think they are running a scam.

Hi Socrates,
Many thank for your reply. I hope it is a glitch. I have opened a ticket but haven’t heard from the support yet.
I careless about Bit Defender. Still have two years of Avast left, so Bit Defender is useless for me.
The reason I bought the Toolbox, as it had all the features, which the lower flavors didn’t.
Best regards,

Best regards,
you purchased PowerArchiver 2011 Toolbox and entered its code into PowerArchiver 2012 Toolbox?
No, it will not work.
You need to login to your account and get free codes for PowerArchiver 2012, as they will work on 2012.

I did log into my account and the following is what freeked me out:
Available Upgrades:
PowerArchiver 2012 Toolbox English - 1 license w/ BitDefender IS 2012 Version 13.00 released Jun 1, 2012
You are entitled to a 65% discountWhat the above is for? I don’t understand. As I already own a license of BitDefender IS 2012. Is the above for PowerArchiver 2012 Toolbox English?
Also, now I see the following:
Free Upgrades:
PA Command Line 7 Single User License Version 7.00 released May 16, 2012
PowerArchiver 2012 Toolbox Legacy Version 13.00 released Jun 1, 2012The above is confusing to me. I am a new customer and I don’t want to start on the wrong foot.

Hi,
Just get free update, paying one is for AV, nothing too complicated… Once you register it, you get all features enabled and you are set.
Rinse and repeat for every major version and you are set for next 14 years at least :-)
