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.
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
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.
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

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.

I’m looking forward to deploying PowerArchiver 2023 to my users. Can you tell us when the MSI will be available for download and distribution?
Thanks.
Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1165/
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1164/
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.

Hello,
I have a problem with PowerArchiver 2013, version 14.02.03 on Windows 7 64bit. When I want to run any desktop shortcut as different user or as an administrator nothing happens (there should be a pop-up window with enter credentials). UAC is on, all needed services are running. The same behaviour happens in start menu – recently opened programs (but only here). If I open \Start Menu\Programs\Accessories and run calculator as different user, pop-up window opens and I can enter credentials.I had previous version and i upgraded it yesterday.Workaround is to uninstall PA but I dont want to do that.
Update:
- if I run as diff. user from Program files, it works
- I have another PC with Windows 8.1 Pro Eng and here it is also broken (if you right click the start menu a select control panel, task manager, file explorer…)
Thank you for your assistance.
-
Is it 14.02.03 or 05? 05 was yesterday?
-
It is version 14.02.05
-
let me add Run as different user to my computer and I will try it out
-
ok, so on desktop Win8.1 x64, right click run as different user (on any shortcut), seems to work.
I am assuming it is 64bit Windows?
-
If you could help us reproduce it, that would be great. I am not sure how can I run as a different user in Start menu, Win8.1… shift does not work?
-
in Windows 8.1 it is a different problem. Right click the start menu icon and click on control panel ( on this pc it does nothing). Also if i access the start menu and write cmd and right click it and select run as administrator, the cmd wont start. Problem in Win 8.1 has lower priority, lets focus on problem in windows 7, it has higher priority for me
-
can you save your PA settings, and send them to support@conexware.com. It might be related to some specific shell extension setting.
Also - these are x64?
-
Ok i send settings to support.
Yes both Windows are x64
-
thanks for sending your settings
testing this out today on our W7 x64 machine, will let you know the result
-
Thank you, I will wait for your answer
-
Can you please confirm the date of these files in your PA installation folder:
POWERARC.EXE
PASHLEXT64.DLLMuch appreciated!

I verified the date of the required files:

we were able to reproduce it on our W7 machines. it has been logged in our system andthe dev team will take a look.
thanks very much for your help and detailed report!
-
Thank you very much, I hope that the problem will be solved as soon as possible, since it strongly limits us
-
we have investigated this a bit - problem happens “only” when PA was never run on that user, so workaround right now would be to just run PA once.
We should be able to fix this for upcoming release. Thank you!
-
here is test release that should have a fix for this:
