    Bug extracting from ZIP etc using Extract here with PA 22.00.09
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

    Windows 11 bug in PA 22.00.09
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

    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?

    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.

      When I tried to extract files from my IMG-file, I got nothing.
      Then I opened IMG-file with PowerArchiver v14.06.01, it showed me the empty window.
      After that I opened the same IMG-file in 7-Zip v9.34, it showed me the archive(image) structure, and allowed me to extract it.

      diskcopy.img (1.44 MB)

          Maybe the diskcopy.img file was downloaded incorrectly.
          You can try to download this file from zippyshare or rghost from above link.
          Also you can make this img-file by yourself:

          1. Open with Restorator (resource editor) diskcopy.dll file from C:\Windows\System32 folder.
          2. Open BINFILE folder and save 1 resource as diskcopy.img file.

          diskcopy.img file can be opened or extracted correctly by using following programs:

          7-Zip 9.34
          Bitser 1.1.0.0
          Easy 7-Zip 0.1.2
          FreeArc 0.67
          HaoZip 4.4.1.9596.1
          PeaZip-5.4.1
          WinArchiver 3.6
          UltraISO 9.6.1.3016

          Programs, which can not correctly open or extract this img-file:

          ALZip 8.5.1
          B1 Free Archiver 1.5.86.4889
          BandiZip 5.02
          Express Zip Plus 2.8
          Hamster Free ZIP Archiver 3.0.0.74
          IZArc 4.1.9
          PKZip 14.20.0027
          PowerArchiver 14.06.01
          UltimateZip 7.0.8.1
          Windows 8.1 Explorer (as Mount)
          WinRAR 5.20
          WinZip Pro 18.5

            I found the interesting thing. If change the extension from *.IMG to *.CAB
            the PowerArchiver 14.06.01 opens this archive, but with different files as 7-ZIP v9.34.
