It would be nice to be able to at least extract Zstandard archives.

I prefer to use light themes, and when, for example, I have set up my main archive screen to be Classic Toolbar with Blizzard Blue, files in the archive are highlighted (no checkboxes, full row select) with white text on grey background. They are easy to see .
However, in the Add screens, the files and folders are black type upon a pale blue background, which is not so readily visible, especially when highlighting separate files in lists with Ctrl/Click for addition. It would be ideal if the backgrounds to files in these screens could be set to mimic the highlighting of those in the main archive window.
I have tried experimenting with different themes and settings for skins, toolbars and so forth, but, unless I’ve missed something, none seem to give me the effect I want.

Re: Windows 11 Context menu support
It would really make me happy if you put .BH in the Windows 11 context menu. I know it’s in the “More Options” section, but this would make it more convenient. Don’t know why the option to add it to the menu isn’t there in the first place. P-L-E-A-S-E ??? :) Thanks You!

Any chance of including this format in a future release?

Exceptional compression levels.
Thanks.

Now that the Windows Store is making support for non-UWP apps mainstream, including those with their own update delivery process, it would be nice to see PowerArchiver in the Windows Store going forwards - at least as a channel for the product to be available.

Tell us what features you want from new format…

In Windows 11 a new explorer context menu is introduced.
The “old” context menu may still be accessed through an additional mouse click, to reach the PowerArchiver context menu functions, but this isn’t comfortable at all.Could you add PowerArchiver items to the first level (and ideally disable the Windows native ZIP entry)

I’m surprised that OneDrive for Business isn’t supported. I can’t link my company’s OneDrive account, but a personal (free) account works fine.

Hi,
I’d like to propose an improvement for password protected archives.
Actual behavior is:
If I open an archive, which is password protected and make a typo in the password dialog, I’ll get the message, that the password was wrong and I end up with an empty window. I need to reopen the archive to be able to enter the password again.Improved behavior:
Tell me, that the password was wrong and give me the chance to enter the correct password to decrypt the archive. -
Hello!
I know I have been asking for this feature some time ago, but as nothing has changed let me ask again:
The ZIPX-format offers an algorithm, that compresses JPEG-files by about 20-30%. Please add compression (packing) support for this in ZIPX-archives to Powerarchiver. Extraction of JPEGs packed into ZIPX by this algorithm is already supported by Powerarchiver for a long time, so it should not be difficult? Or is it a licensing problem?
Thanks! -
Hi,
I’d like to suggest, that the correct archive type is (always) selected, when adding files by drag & drop to an archive.
This is already happening if the archive has the correct extension. For example, if I’m adding files to test.zip, zip will be selected. If I’m adding files to test.7z, 7z will be selected as format in “Add dialog”.
But this won’t be working, if the archive has not the “right” extension.
So XPI files (Firefox addons) for example are ZIP files. PowerArchiver opens them without any problems, but if I try to add file by drag & drop, PowerArchiver won’t auto select “ZIP”, but use the last selected archive format, while PowerArchiver already knows, that I’m trying to add files to a ZIP. -
I love this, only there is one problem. The UAC elevation feature does not extend to Mount Image option in the add-on software PA provided. It is most annoying whenever I am on highest UAC settings and I mount an ISO, every time I open and create a virtual drive UAC appears. I also do not want to completely disable UAC.
Is adding UAC elevation for mount image feature possible?

The now defunct Bulkzip had Nanozip (nz) as an option this would be great to have for compatibility with my .nz files, so I don’t have to install Bulkzip separately.
Please add support for PKZIP archives
-
hello PA Staff,
I’m user of PA Standard version & i’ll very happy if power archiver can open & edit PKZip archives, because now a days many games archives are made with PKZip & have to install Pkzip for it…I uses power archiver since about 4-5 years so i don’t like any other archiving utilities…so please try to add support for PkZIP…
Thank you… :) -
i dont get it, we have support for pkzip archives, they are zip? You need to explain it better :-)
-
Yes please because I’ve accessed pkzip archives in particular with non problems. Are you referring to features or as a gamer wanting to compress to pkzip.? Please explain.
-
what is pkzip? I might not know :-)
-
Check Wiki its all there my friend :) what I can tell you is pkzip who develops securezip application does an android version so painful needs to pick up the pace and do a PowerArchiver Mobile version. :-) ill even happily pay up to £10 for that app
-
@Sir:

i know who pkzip is, what I dont understand is that they create ZIP archives… so what exactly should we add?
-
Sod if I know that’s why we’re waiting on dharmang lol
-
ok,
let me explained something,
lots of game’s archives which contains xml files and other data are made with pkzip and sometimes they have .pack extansion or no extension…but they all have common signature likePK…YeI:…Awards/PK…9…(…
all that archives are started with PK signature when open them in hex editor…
some of them are open and edit in Power Archiver but not all of them…this kind of problem i’ve faced in arc archives before…in which some of them can open in PA but not all of them…
so PKZIP and ZIP archives are different…
-
you need to send us an example of such archives, PKZIP creates only zip archives, but maybe the method of compression is different.
most likely it is not pkzip creating these, and it has nothing to do with pkzip, as it is standard compliant.
in any case, send us one of files and we will know better whats goin on.
-
just to confirm, PK is marker for any zip file… it doesnt mean it was created with pkzip… PowerArchiver creates zip files that start with PK (and every other utility).
-
Ok,
now i didn’t remember which archive was not opened by PA so when i found it , i’ll inform you…!!!
and thank you so much for the help… :)
