BETA: PowerArchiver 2023 - 22.10.02

[spwolf]

can you please send us screenshot of options menu where you are changing it and it does not work? I must be doing something wrong here, and screenshot will help a lot! Thanks.

@ACE135:

Here is the .reg file. The option should be selected.

btw, you have your tbx as well, or does it need extending from our side? If it needs extension, let us know via email please!

If I’m using the explorer style I can deselect it via the menu bar. If I’m using the classic style it is grayed out in the menu bar.

I only have the option for “PowerArchiver 2016 - Personal - International” in my account.

I got it now, use explorer only in archive checkbox in Configuration window does not apply.

I also see that View folders bar option is disabled when Classic view is selected, which it shouldnt be (same Config window)

[spwolf]

both need to email me to my personal mail or to support at conexware dot com, so I can check your accounts and get you going with TBX… thanks!

now back to only thing left - changing to modern toolbar locks up PA… where do you change it, under View menu or in Configuration window?

thanks!

I also see now that I can change it via the menu in the status bar regardless if I’m in classic or explorer style.

yeah, it seems we disabled it in main menu in classic since it is not applicable to classic… should it be disabled in classic? I think in this case that it should be disabled in classic, even though I generally do not like disabled options but here it should work well.

Under the View menu it works fine. It happens when I try to change it in the configuration window.

I tested a bit and it seems that PA locks up “directly” (with the text in the status bar) if an archive is opened. If no archive is opened then it seems that just nothing happend. PA seems still to work then. You can go to the configuration window again and see that a classic skin is still selected but the “Modern Toolbar” is now checked at the same time. You can go throug some menus in the toolbar but PA doesn’t seem to work properly. For example PA doesn’t open archives if I try to open in the toolbar or menu bar.

Btw is it possible to switch back to the file icons of PA 2015? Because I’m used to it and for now I don’t really like the new ones.

I just found another bug.

Some archives with the extension .rar, .tar, .zip (maybe files with other extensions as well) don’t have the option “Extract here” in the shell menu although it is set in the configurations. I couldn’t figure out so far why it affects some archives with said extensions and others don’t. And for that archives where the “Extract here” entry is missing, when I click on “Extract to [filename]” the “Open with” dialouge of Windows appears and wants me to choose a program for opening the file, where PA is pre selected.

Under View, there is Icon Set option, check Original and that will switch back to old icons.

I mean the ones in the Windoes Explorer, not in PA itself.

Here I have 2 .zip files. One has the option “Extract Here”, the other has not. For the one that has the option “Extract here” the files are extracted as intended when click on "Extract to [filename]. For the other just the “Open with” window of Windows comes up.

Thanks! Just sent an email with a request for some samples that would help.

Thanks again!

Archive comments.
When I try to add a new comment to an archive, or change an existing one, I pull up the Comment box.
After saving the Comment, only the Initial letter of the first word of the comment appears. This is whether or not Comments are docked.

not right now, but it could be added in the future.
