See the, supposedly, blank space where the green box is? It’s like that in Modern Light theme too. I can toggle it, but it’s missing text or shouldn’t be there I guess?
Thanks :)

For some reason, the PowerArchiver functions in the Windows 11 context menu no longer work after the last Windows Update. Only the functions in the classic context menu function as they should.
I’ve tried uninstalling PowerArchiver and using RevoUninstaller to remove all bits and pieces that were left behind and did a clean install of PowerArchiver, it didn’t fix the issue. Other items in the Windows 11 context menu work.

W10 Pro 22H2 - 64 -bit
PA 22.00.06 (PA 2023)
It has been the case with previous versions of PowerArchiver, but I had hoped that the latest might behave differently. Not so, I’m afraid.
I have, for various obscure reasons, created a few .pa archives, mainly in the hope that they will save me some more space. From time to time, I use the “Test” option to check that important archives are OK and uncorrupted.
With every .pa archive I’ve tested, the process runs through OK but then reports that there are errors. This is always the number of files in the archive e.g. if 11 files, then 11 errors reported.
In the .pa, I can:-
preview the files (usually PDF) extract some or all files and look at or use them convert the .pa to a .zip or .zipx archive, which then works fine and tests without errorsIs it the case that the Test routine isn’t designed for .pa archives, or is there another reason? Although the .pa seems to function properly, despite the test reporting errors, I would like to be sure that every .pa is OK and not “broken”.
Some of the .pas are quite old and produced with earlier PA versions (they are truly “archives”). If I extract all the files in the old .pa, create a new, fresh .pa and add back the files to that, then test the new, no errors (at least in the .pa I’ve tried this on) are reported. This would suggest a mismatch between old .pas and newer versions of PA itself.

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. -
I installed powarc-macos20001.dmg and I am attempting to create a password protected zip file. When I create the zip in the UI it doesn’t write the file to the destination folder. No error message is displayed. The PA app has full folder permission. I’m new to Mac, but have been running PA on Windows for a long time.
Will there be a new version of the Mac version soon?

Hi! I came across an issue when I tried to uninstall PowerArch 2013. I got an error “The specified account already exists” which broke the process. I got the same error when I tried to install the current version, without uninstalling the previous one.
So I can’t uninstall and I can’t install PowerArchiver. Any suggestions? OS Windows 8.1 x64.Dariusz

Where are various settings store . . . e.g. ftp, etc.

Re: Explorer.exe Crash on right click
This appears to be happening again with the Power Archiver 2022 shell extensions.
When I have Use Explorer Shell Extensions enabled in Power Archiver Configuration and right-click on c:\Users\username\Start Menu, (hidden Junction file), File Explorer crashes.
I have version 21.00.15 (03/2022) 64-bit installed in Windows 10 Version 21H2 (Build 19044.1826).

Powerarchiver 2022
Right-click and select Encrypt on a folder does not work.
Although it says it encrypts, there is no encrypted file in the destination folder. -
The online update feature within the program suggests there is a later version than the ‘.17’ available on the web site. But clicking either download or update just reinstalls version .17.
Either there isn’t an update OR
the “download” and 'update" links should be repaired. -
Hi Dear,
Cannot login and request resend license code for my fd
Test tool in shell extensions
-
Having dealt with my own particular quirks and raised a silly issue, I think this is a real one.
I have “test” selected as an option I want in the shell main menu.
But it doesn’t show up in the shell either within the PA window or within explorer.
-
is it 32bit Windows or 64 bit? I tested it on x64 and seems to be fine…i added it to submenu and showed there when clicked on zip archive… what archive did you click on?
-
32 bit
click on several archives. zipx and 7zip
-
I show you the setting in shell.
My screen capture program won’t let me capture right menu options within PA; but here is explorer RC menu.
-
ok, mili will check with 32bit when he signs on after his festivities come to the end (eating a lot of cookies due to holidays)
-
I thought perhaps relocating in on the ribbon might have made a difference
-
Works in Vista 32bit. Tried a few different archive types for testing.
-
I Use Win 7
Perhaps it works, too, if I break it apart into all the sub areas. But I don’t want to do that. Context menu is too cluttered as is.
I can get it to show up if I add it to the sub-menu (which, I think, is what Luxor has done). Could you try adding it to the main menu and see what happens?
-
-
Then either it is Vista versus 7-32 . . . or something else (one different setting?
Never been a problem before.
I can live with it in sub-menu, but since I use it a lot, I would have preferred. . . .

Vista does something better than win7, that’s got to be a first. ;)

Have faith in the team, they are good at finding and fixing our own little personal issues. :)
Except for a couple of my personal little ones. :D
-
The test tool – even when it does appear in the sub-menu – does not work.
First, it asks me for the proper file association, and then just opens the PA window where I can, if I wish, test the archive.
But this is multiple steps for what should be two clicks (right context menu / test).
-
One more thing. I have “Test” on the QAT. But I cannot use it even when I have selected an archive. I actually have to open the archive.
That seems like an unnecessary step.
-
for Test there needs to be archive opened… it doesnt have an interface of its own.

send over your settings and we will try with them and see what happens on our test computers… maybe it wont show up either.
-
I have used test within the shell for as long as I have used PA. I did not have to open the archive . . . just have it chosen.
Have you decided that they will no longer be true? I can live with it within the sub-menu, as long as it works the way it used to.

no, i was talking QAT and inside main PA. In the shell, it should work same as always, there were no changes in any case, just repositioning one button.

I stumbled on a solution. After brief tinkering, (a) “test” appeared in the main shell menu, and b) I could run test immediately, just after selecting the archive, just as it has always done before.
The problem - unfortunately - is that I am not 100% sure what I did. I was tinkering with adding and deleting several other items in the shell extensions menus. (I thought tinkering with the menus might yield a result.)
I THINK this is what I did:
Under compression:
1. removed compress to RARUnder extraction:
1. ended up with “extract archive to” and “extract archive here.” I either had one but not the other; on even took one off and added it back on.In any event, shazzam: test showed up and worked correctly, both in explorer shell AND in right clicking within the PA window. It did NOT take to me to the PA windows or require me to actually open the archive. Just selecting it was enough.
If you want, I can send you the new registry keys, and you can compare them with the one I sent this morning. Perhaps you can isolate the exact difference.
