From within PA on the extract popup, buttons are hidden, I must resize the window to get access to the OK/Cancel buttons. Tried on the default notebook screen (Macbook M1 Max 14") as well as on my external monitor (4k).Screenshot_2022-05-12_10-02-10.jpg

Just uncompressed a RAR file that has a folder within, PA created the folder but the files inside are not being saved into folder because directory separator is a BACKSLASH (Windows style) instead of SLASH (macOS).Screenshot_2022-05-12_09-59-08.jpg

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?
Thank you for your support in advance! -
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”) -
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.b606f084-9d96-461e-b93b-6ba9310a0f6c-image.png

Hi,
I have a 31" 4K screen with 3840x2160 pixel, which PA is able to handle - except of a scaling other than 100%.
Access violation at address 0000000..DF47A4 in module 'powerarc.exe'. Schreiben of address 0000...00330.
When changing scaling for this screen to 125%, starting PA brings the following exception: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?
Thanks and regards,
Karsten -

This are the steps :
in Options, select ‘configure clouds’ try now to quit this option…
No way, everything is locked up, the only way is using the task manager to quit PA.

In PA 21.0.13, when I try to open an archive with the new Windows 11 context menu item “Open with PowerArchiver”, a PowerArchive instance is opened, but the archive is not loaded.

Hi,
the new Windows 11 context menu is not localized in PA 21.00.13.
While the classic context menu is localized, when it’s opened on a file on my desktop, it’s English, when it’s opened from a file on my C drive.@Mili Are there updated localization files available?

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

PA Queue does not compress file optimally with same parameters if used in Queue mode.
Being able to save advanced option, and set a default profile and archive type for compression so I can save clicks.
The above two are majorly affecting my efficiency with archiving stuff with PA 20.10.03.
Can someone confirm if they are resolved with the 2022 RC1?

I’m running W10 Pro on an HP i-7 machine with now 32gb of RAM. The system drive is an SSD.
In the course of sorting out some inconsistencies in a couple of my .pbs jobs, I’ve been paying close attention to the system CPU resource and power consumption of PA Starter, as shown by the various resource management tools. I’ve also been trying to identify why my system seems rather sluggish despite some extensive tuning for speed etc.
When I have enabled Starter as a start-up programme, to use the PA Queue facility, I see that Starter consistently uses between 10-13% of CPU, with High Power consumption indicated. It runs, consuming this resource, irrespective of what may be happening with PA and any pbs script jobs.
I can understand a need to use a good chunk of CPU when Starter is actually handling PA jobs, but it shouldn’t sit and consume this amount when it really isn’t doing anything but wait for a job to start and for which it is needed.
Perhaps I’ve missed a way of lessening Starter’s impact, but in the meantime I’ve adjusted my set-up to running PA without it.
Suggestions, please.
USB Portable version

Dear Powerarchiver,
Will you make a usb portable version for your customers , anytime in the future. Lots of crypto now has support for the usb portable versions.

Hi cyruslocal
This request has come up a few times.
Here’s a couple of similar threads. -
portable version is coming this year for sure…

if anyone has any suggestion on what middleware to use, let us know :-)

Have you any idea’s yourself? If so what are they?

Will you be releasing in -both- U3 version and a single doubleclick .exe file ?
Personally… I am not in favour of U3 software on my USB thumbdrive, but I do like to have PA as portable version.
(again, this is my personal taste, others may like to have the U3)Maybe you wish to consider :
-
release a portable version with a separate registration (for those not willing to buy the full version, because they wish to keep their system as clean as possible and want to carry around a portable version all the time), in both U3 and single .exe
version -
have a portable version created from within the (paid) full version: a kind of backup/export to a portable version on thumbdrive.
(some programs have this option, e.g. Directory Opus)

U3 is dead so no U3 for sure…

Hi!

How about as a Portable Apps version? Easy to use and very user friendly installation to the USB Memory stick and running from USB Memory stick. I know most of the programs released as Portable Apps are open source, but I don’t see any problem release a commercial program like PowerArchiver as a portable version running in Portable Apps.
Kind Regards

it is one we are looking at too… do you have any experience with it Micke, how about shell extensions support and associations?

Hi!

I’ve been using it for about a year now. Have tested and used it in Windows XP, Windows 7, Ubuntu 10.04 and Linux Mint 10 through Wine. I find it very user friendly and I haven’t got into any problem using it. Since all the Portable Apps programs are Windows versions, not all of them will work through Wine in Ubuntu, but that’s something I can live with.
However, you can’t associate a file extension to a portable apps program. At least I haven’t tried to do that, because the whole point in using Portable Apps it that the programs don’t get installed on the computer and that they won’t leave any traces after running.
If I could for example associate .odt extension (LibreOffice Writer) to the Portable version of LO Writer, this would get problems after exit the portable apps program and removing the USB Memory stick, if no other programs on the computer could open .odt files. Instead I have to start the program and then open the file from the program.
Another point is that you should keep all the documents and images your are using with Portable Apps on the same USB Memory stick, since you want both the programs and the document to be portable. You can also from the running Portable Program open files that are stored on the hard drive.
I haven’t seen any shell extension support and as far as I know, it’s not supported because of the reasons I just mentioned.
I have also tested running Portable Apps on a computer that I have no admin rights on and it run without any problem. It takes some time to start the selected program from the USB Memory, but once it’s started I really can’t say that it feels any different from running it installed on the computer.
If it would come a Portable Apps version of Power Archiver, the user would have to first open PA and then from PA open the selected archive. I believe this is acceptable since we are not install or changing anything in the OS on the computer and all the programs will run directly from the USB Memory stick.
I’m not sure if all this answered your question, but personally I like Portable Apps a lot and I had no problem using it. It’s also very convenient to have all the programs I need in my pocket and if I also would be able to have PowerArchives on a USB Memory stick, it would be even better.
Kind Regards

Micke - i know how it works… i would still like both of those to work and to be able to automagically “uninstall” themselves once stick has been removed.
It may be possible to actually do that… i think only that would bring real portability to the equation - otherwise, what is compression utility without shell and associations? :-)
-
so… do we make extra effort to make it work perfectly (shell, assoc), or do we just package it with 5 minute job like portable apps and lunch it?
-
make the extra effort !
thanks !!! -

Yes, that would certainly make it real portabillity, but the question remain, will it work on all circumstances, even when you don’t have administrator rights to the OS?

Mickewell it wouldnt when you dont have admin of course, just like anything else that requires admin access… but it could work if you do have it.

Hi!

I like the idea of using shell integration, file association etc. but for me personally, it’s really not that important. I already have all that in the installed non portable version of PA.
When it comes to a Portable version of PA, I don’t see it as a replacement for the non portable version of PA. Instead it’s more like a supplement to the non portable installed version of PA.
Because of this, I personal really don’t need the shell and file association for a Portable version of PA. It’s good enough if I can run it from the USB Stick and open archives within PA.
But that’s just my personal opinion. I’m not going to complain if you make a Portable version that works with shell intregration, file association and restore everything after the USB Stick is removed.
Kind Regards
Micke -

You can do it in two steps.
- Make a powerarc.exe that doesn’t require information to be written to the registry, gets all of the required configuration information from files in the directory the executable resides in, and doesn’t need COM information installed in the registry (there are ways to configure COM objects in manifest files instead). This is the basic portability requirement, and lets anyone use the program from a USB stick without admin rights on the computer and without needing to buy into any particular ‘portability shell’.
Of course, you don’t get shell integration. But sometimes I just want to look at or extract files from an archive that might not be supported on the machine I’m currently at. I can figure out how to open it from within PA - I’m not completely dense. Also, I happen to have a portable file manager (XYPlorer) that can be configured with portable file associations - I could configure that file manager to portably open PA’s files.
- create a package for Portable Apps (or whichever you decide on) that brings the bells and whistles for those who want them. As far as I know, the work done for #1 would help with integrating things into this step - it certainly wouldn’t make things harder.
-
good insights, thanks.

I cant find yet any link please.
