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.
PowerArchiver WIM-file opening
-
Recently was released Windows 10 Tech Preview.
7-Zip v9.34 still opens wim-files from source folder on Windows 10 installation image correctly.
PowerArchiver v.14.06.01 gives the error:
-
thank you, we will check it out…

The problem can be solved by replacing 7Z.DLL file by the same 7Z.DLL file from 7-ZIP v9.34, but wim-files opening is still veeeery slow.

hm, well 9.34 has a lot of buggies according to the forum, not sure if we should use that in production PA.

I didn’t have any troubles with 9.34 version, and see this version of dll-file in many other archiver programs.
But of course if this version have a lot of bugs it’s your decision which 7-Zip version to use.
If you can make fast opening of any(new) wim-files version, then there is no difference, which version of 7-ZIP will be used 9.20 or 9.34.
For myself I simply replaced 7Z.dll to the 9.34 version until new version of PowerArchiver, which begins to open new Windows 10 WIM-files. -
10.10.2014 the PowerArchiver v14.06.02 was released, but it still not opening Windows 10 TP WIM-files.

Thank you for the promises. And please, could you make large wim-files (e.g.: install.wim) opening more faster, as in 7-Zip.

The PowerArchiver v14.06.04 was released.
I don’t know is the this version the major or not, but “Windows 10 Technical Preview” WIM-files opening still not working. -
P.S. I want update the info.
The PowerArchiver v14.06.04 does not open only the boot.wim file.
install.wim file opens, but veeeeeery slowly.
The PowerArchiver v15.00.22 opens boot.wim file normally.Any version of 7-Zip always opened all wim-files very fast, but PowerArchiver still can not do this more faster.
I thought fast wim-file opening will be the gift to the users.
