On installing the program I am getting the error message:
"Unable to execute file c:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\pashutil.exe
CreateProcess failed: code 2
The system cannot find the file specified"
This can’t be right!
I am using the latest official build of Windows 11

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 everyone, some good news about PowerArchiver… I’ve managed to get in touch with the original developer of PowerArchiver, Ivan Petrovic, and he has confirmed that the product is not dead or abandoned, in fact it is still very much alive! There has been a hiatus over the past months for various reasons, but that we should expect to see stuff coming through in the coming months (hopefully the next 2 months).
I had a large .tar file (a backed up WSL) and I want to delete a few directories and their contents from it using PA2023.
PA just destroys the whole archive as soon as I try to delete a directory, leaving it in a state where PA2023 won’t even open it any more.
I tried several times and also tried compressing it to .tar.xz instead - same result.
This should either actually work, or it should say operation not supported and do nothing.
Hello!
The regular version of PA 2023 is out for over 6 months now, but there is still no sign of the portable release.
(When) will there be one?
Thanks!
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
Win 11 64 bit
I have some archives which have been encrypted, using the encrypt option either in pbs or when interactively creating a zip. When I open these, and look at files, I am asked for passwords, which I know, and then can view items or decrypt the files in the archive (tools>decrypt files).
However, when I use the Actions>Remove Archive Encryption (whether using the same zip or asking to write another), the routine shows progress bar to the end, but then just hangs i.e. “OK” never activates. All process information shows this stalled/hanging.
What can I do to sort this out?
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.
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.

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.

Unmounting ISO from navigation pane is impossible
-
After the unmounting dialog I get this error message
The ISO is not in use or locked by any other application.
The only way to unmount it is to track back it’s folder and press unmount… on the file itself and it’s VERY uncomfortable.THNX
-
is this only on particular ISO or?
-
Of course not, on all image files.
“Mount on Mount” unmounts the previous image file but as expected mounts the new one with same problem.BTW I’m trialing v13.01.04 Pro

Hello,
You are referring to getting a “device busy” dialog when specifically right clicking on the virtual drive letter in Windows Explorer and selecting the “unmount” option?
Please try clicking on another file and using the “unmount” option, like a file on the desktop for exacmple. You will still get the unmount option, which should work fine.
Let us know.
Thanks!

Yes you are correct right-clicking on any file or folder will open up an unmount shellex -> unmount diaglog
4 suggestion/wishes:
1)It’s very much not straight forward
2)Why using a dialog when only 1 image file is mounted ?
3)How/can I mount multiple image files ?
4)How can I edit/create an image file ?All 4 are available in a “dedicated” image file software like MagicISO

Hello,
Another easy way to unmount VD’s is to right click on the PA Starter located in your system tray, that will also give you the unmount option. Easy to right click there and unmount, without having to be in a folder or right clicking a file.
You can mount multiple image files by simply mounting one after another.
Also, you can create ISO files using PowerArchiver as well. Simply use the ISO builder by clicking the “New Disc Image” button in the burner menu.Hope that helps :)
Thanks!

Also,
If you go to Options>Configuration>Miscellaneous, you will see an option where you can enter the number of Virtual Drives you would like. Located on the top right side of the Miscellaneous Tab.Thanks!

Well it cannot edit ISO images (remove/add files & folders to an existing image file), determine/make them bootable,non-bootable and create multi-boot image file and probably some more features like …
If we are talking about a “swissknife software” sharpen this edge could be nice :rolleyes:

there was a new wish in wishlist section about editing ISOs… keep in mind that PA is only archiver right now that can make iso files…
