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.
PowerArchiver 2012 Backup Script Issue
-
Yesterday I installed a registered copy of PowerArchive 2012. The create several “Backup” scripts. Upon creation of the scripts the last dialog changes to “Do Backup”. Upon clicking “Do Backup” each of the scripts work fine. Then I noticed a “Run” button. I would select the script I wish to run and click the “Run” button. At that point nothing much appears to be happening. I do see the disk light flashing. If a process is “Running” a running process dialog should open listing the process and showing a percentage complete message. Can someone please help?
Thanks. -
Just tested this, and I notice that the Backup application starts and opens and is then minimized to the taskbar, so just take a look in your taskbar and it should be there.
Once you click it, you’ll see the backup window compressing your backup files. -
Mili thank you for your quick response. It was just not obvious that the process was running. Is there some parameter setting that can make the process run as a window by default rather than minimized to the TaskBar?
-
You’re very welcome.
I have attached a screenshot showing what to select in the backup configuration in order for it to appear fully.
In the dropdown shown, Minimized is selected by defauly, So, simply select “Normal” and the backup will appear when selecting Run.
