Hello,

I can’t seem to rename any of my files in my archive? The rename button is greyed out aswell as F2 not working. Any ideas?

Cheers!

Hello,

What kind of an archive is it? As some formats do not support renaming, like RAR for example. But Zip/7Z/PA formats do.

Let us know.

Thanks!

@deipotent: Hi Ivan/spwolf, Any news from DynaZip on this problem and whether they will update their library to handle it ? (I hope they will!) As mentioned in my previous posts WinZip and some other ZIP archive utilities can handle this file, so while the file may not adhere to the ZIP standard, I would still very much like to see PA handle it (which means the DynaZip library being updated) We shall see, we are still compiling list of things for them, however they are usually not to keen to support things that outside of standards and any update they do has to be verified by MS team so do not expect anything soon. thanks,

How did you extract? I was able to open the file via PowerArchiver, click on Extract, picked a folder and it extracted there fine. Using version 18.00.53

Going forward, it is always important to have backup systems in place! one main service I use “FREE” is “Idrive” I have 12 gigs of data free which is use to backup important files, my documents and anything I feel i need to via the internet. Should the worst happen recovering the files could not be simpler! Keeping backups via an extra disc or harddrive is great but if the worst should happen ie a house fire most of the times the back drives and discs are destroyed or too damaged to use. These days a majority of internet users have a stable and fast enough connection to stream files online so these online backup companies are able to lower their prices due to the increase in demand. Grant you wont be able to backup all your movies, music etc… But anything important such as photo’s or personal documents and files would benifit.

I added files to archive and set options to create a zip and “move” the files (delete files after added to archive). When I open the zip that was created only one of my files are there and the rest are not. I checked the original file location and they are not located there either. PA deleted my files without adding them to the archive. Also checked recycle bin and they are not there either. No record of archive in “history”. Is there any way for me to recover or restore the files that PA deleted? Or any other folders I should look to find them?

@gusto: Sheesh, don’t know why I hadn’t tried that. The UAC prompting is now gone (except as it should be e.g. in Program Files folder). I’m not a power user of PA, not sure if it is odd that the default shortcut comes up with admin or if this is useful to most users. Thanks for the prompt responses and assistance. You have saved me from resorting to the land of open source and neckbeards. If I had to guess, you had legitimate problem like that other user, which we solved with this release i sent. But you probably tried everything you can before that and left start as administrator turned on, as it is not there by default. in any case, glad it is solved… thanks for being our user.
