On installing the program I am getting the error message:
"Unable to execute file c:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\pashutil.exe
CreateProcess failed: code 2
The system cannot find the file specified"
This can’t be right!
I am using the latest official build of Windows 11

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

Hi everyone, some good news about PowerArchiver… I’ve managed to get in touch with the original developer of PowerArchiver, Ivan Petrovic, and he has confirmed that the product is not dead or abandoned, in fact it is still very much alive! There has been a hiatus over the past months for various reasons, but that we should expect to see stuff coming through in the coming months (hopefully the next 2 months).
I had a large .tar file (a backed up WSL) and I want to delete a few directories and their contents from it using PA2023.
PA just destroys the whole archive as soon as I try to delete a directory, leaving it in a state where PA2023 won’t even open it any more.
I tried several times and also tried compressing it to .tar.xz instead - same result.
This should either actually work, or it should say operation not supported and do nothing.
Hello!
The regular version of PA 2023 is out for over 6 months now, but there is still no sign of the portable release.
(When) will there be one?
Thanks!
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
Win 11 64 bit
I have some archives which have been encrypted, using the encrypt option either in pbs or when interactively creating a zip. When I open these, and look at files, I am asked for passwords, which I know, and then can view items or decrypt the files in the archive (tools>decrypt files).
However, when I use the Actions>Remove Archive Encryption (whether using the same zip or asking to write another), the routine shows progress bar to the end, but then just hangs i.e. “OK” never activates. All process information shows this stalled/hanging.
What can I do to sort this out?
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.
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.

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.

PDF Previews Gone
-
When I select a PDF inside an archive with the Preview Pane is active, PA will launch PDF XChange Editor instead of previewing the PDF in the Pane!
Might try another PDF reader later, PDF XChange is Fast and 64-bit
Please change PA to use Microsoft Edge for PDF handling, IE11 is useless.
-
PSD preview has gone also but at times it took way too long to open them anyways.
-
I don’t get it, I have one machine here that works great and the other doesn’t. One is Windows 10 Home and the other Pro. This is some stupid registry entry gone wrong

What launches in Windows Explorer preview? Edge?
-
Windows Explorer pane uses PDF XChange Editor active-x plugin to preview the PDF but Both IE11 and PA go and launch a new process of PDF XChange Editor.
Love the builtin PDF viewer in Edge just need to get developers to move off f**king ActiveX garbage and switch to Edge\Chromium style tech.

I am not sure that MS has exposed their PDF viewer though. When that happens, it will likely be automatically supported. It has to be through activex, thats the only way.
And also, I had to download latest Acrobat since the Edge PDF viewer seems to be broken on my computer… cant load PDFs with Edge anymore. I keep using latest tech preview version, that might be why.

When Adobe Acrobat\Reader stops using the internet\cloud? to view a local PDF I may return to using it.

i didnt notice that? In any case, it also has issues as well. I had to reinstall it few times to make it working (it is own instance).
It sucks to have to do so much work when you simply have to print something 2 times per month.
