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.
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

Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:

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.
GUI: views in burner
-
When selecting the Burner Ribbon, you still have access to the interface and folders icon in the status bar.
When selecting one of these icons, the toolbars & panes are shown.
I think these options should be disabled when selecting the burner ribbon.

I think it is quite nice as it is. Although if other like Guido’s suggestion, I wouldn’t mind greatly if you changed it.

Could you explain why you like it the way it is? The menubar and folderlist that is shown, doesn’t do anything? You cannot drag & drop or something?! And when you switch ribbons it gone again.
-
it allows you to switch from Easy and Advanced mode from the burner tab as well

I can partly see why that one is there. But the others. Also when first selecting the burner ribbon and then when choosing easy interface, the burner ribbon disappears.
Thinking about this while typing. I think it’s pretty useless there (statusbar). If I do this in the ribbon, You do not switch between easy and advanced. You turn on/off Easy Interface.
