    Missing Icons
    LuxorL

    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

    BigMikeB

    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

    Better ZPAQ support
    W

    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.

    Bug with "Encrypt Archive" action
    W

    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 Action / Test behaves oddly for me on .PA files
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

      Having a list of documents located in various folders… on screen.
      Want

      • to zip these files individually (so not all to 1)

      • the zip to be stored in the same folder where the source file is located

      • files should be selfextracting .exe files

      • would like to do that from a context menu option

      • when the files are to be extracted they should be extracted into a folder named after the file

      • one pw for all files

      Right … pretty complicated :)

      thanks

        sounds like all you would need is the SFX format added to the Batch tool, as it can do everything you mentioned except the SFX format.

        let’s see what Spwolf says, if it’s doable we can put it in the wishlist for PA 2014 :)

          Yes, I guess so. I have edited my post, it should read … source file… (not source folder which was in my initial post) and added 1 pw for all files.

          Let’s say it is a bit like when I am searching for all *.txt files in all subfolders, it will find various files in various folders.
          Now select the files and rightclick compress to individual, pw-protected .exe files.
          (I seldomly use the GUI, only use context menu, is much faster)

          Did not check if any other archiver/zipper can do this though.

          Later

          1. Add examples of batch zip
          ======[1]=====Adding multiple files to be zipped - note new pw thing==

          ======[2]=====before and after===

          Maybe it could be considered to add a batch zip to exe profile?
          (Options->Compression Profiles) and have that added to context menu?

          Just a suggestion …

          later: maybe this one should be moved to the wishlist part… :)
