Whoa! There’s something funky going on with this build.
Installed fine but after installation It kept on restarting itself and I had dozens of PA starter icons in my notification area.
Had to restart my PC as I can’t stop it doing it. On restart I clicked on PA starter to start PA and the situation repeats itself.
Going to have to uninstall and go back a version. -

Going to have to uninstall and go back a version.can you send me your .reg of HKCU\Software\PowerArchiverInt\
It seems something with PA starter… can you turn it off completely and start PA by launching via powerarc.exe or pa shortcut?
Thank you!
-
also, can you check the time of your powerarc.exe… it should be 3:38 PM (15:38).
pastarter.exe did not change since May.

I had to restart and uninstall it as I couldn’t do anything

PA starter was my suspect, but I couldn’t turn it off or do anything with it, as the PA window was just popping up, off and on, over and over.
Going to install it again but I won’t activate PA starter, see how it goes.
-
Nope! Same problem and now I have the PA window flashing off and on, Just minus all the instances of PA starter in notification area.
-
ok, please send that .reg key so we can check it out with your settings… it is likely something with modern toolbar, are you using it? Since that was updated with new components with support for 4K resolutions. Thanks!
-
also, check time on powerarc.exe, it has to be 15:38… one from earlier did not work correctly, maybe it was left on some CDN server that you downloaded from. Thanks!
-
Gone back to PA16.10.21 and thankfully things are back to normal. Sorry that I couldn’t really do anything about that, as all those windows popping on and off just made it impossible to do anything.

Do you still want it now that I have had to go back to PA16.10.21?

I am indeed.

12:26 According to mine, but as I’ve had to go back to PA16.10.21 I don’t know if that’s right or not.

it is likely whats causing the issue :)
Yes, please do send it!I suspect that Ivan had to change some part of it for new toolbar and it is causing problems now. It is very annoying :-)
Super happy that you are using it though!

I will see with ivan tomorrow, but he mentioned today in first build that some setting had to be changed due to new toolbar code, it is possible that this is done on first run after install, and when you restore settings it messes it up… so it is good that you are using it this way, and that the issue could surface.

I have removed the link since that restarting thing is very annoying… new version on Tuesday!
-
so due to some changes necessitated by upcoming 2017 release, language settings were left from 2017 portable version… result was that PA kept detecting language, changing it and restarting to apply but it was writing data into wrong registry key, hence infinite loop. Since we had 2017 version installed already, it worked fine internally, because all values were already there.
Simple problem, very annoying issue. New files are being uploaded right now, thanks everyone!
