    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

    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.

        Hello. Thanks for reporting this.

        What OS are you using and what is the last installation that worked fine for you? Thank you!

            Interesting, can you please try uninstalling that version of PA and installing latest one? Quite possibly it is old version that is causing the issue. We can obviously always supply old setup if need be.

            Error itself is erroneous, we use Win10 on all of our computers in the office.

            I vaguely remember someone complaining about similar issue 10+ months ago, which is when that version was released. It might be related, maybe @Mili will know more when he logs in to work next week.

            Thanks!

              Indeed I do’nt have anymore the install program of this previous version.
              One of the problem is that the de-installation also require a missing temporary file.
              Anyway I have a personal backup (not the Windows one) that can restore the actual old version.

                      Hello,

                      I’ve the same problem. I’ve installed Version 16.02.04 (03/2016).

                      My system:

                      Windows XP SP3 x86 2GB RAM

                      I can not install newer versions of PA because the problem with the file “paultil.exe”!

                      I hope you can fix this problem.

                      Best regards,

                      Thomas

                        please uninstall the current version, restart your computer and install the latest version from the following link;
                        http://dl.powerarchiver.com/2016/powarc161024.exe

                        Does that help?

                          The problem is that I can not uninstall the old version anymore. Is there a special uninstall tool?
                          Or I have to try an uninstaller like “Revo Uninstaller”?

                            @thomas-k Reinstalling the old version (16.00.61 if I understand correctly) over the top doesn’t work or doesn’t help you uninstall?

                              Thanks. I’ve solved this problem now.

                              Because I could not uninstall PA, I’ve used “Revo Uninstaller”.
                              I’ve deleted all registry entries and files. After this I have started
                              with PA 16.02.04 and then installed all versions up to 16.10.24.

                              Best regards,

                              Thomas
