I am looking for a way to stop the UAC elevation prompt when running Powerarchiver. In an old post about PA 2019, someone asked this and got a response to uncheck “all users” at the prompt but I am not seeing where one can do this. It definitely seems like the way to go though as if I click on “More Details” at the prompt I see that it is trying to run “_pautil.exe /paassociate /allusers /my(long binary string)”. Can you let me know? Thanks.
PS I tried renaming _pautil.exe and this worked, but I don’t know what the consequence of doing this may be so I would like to do this properly, thanks.

There would be many of us with Intel Processors.
and they have their own optimized zlib algorithm, which can result in more efficiency if used combined with their hardware processor.

Zlib is not the only feature that intel has included with their processor, there’s many, which if combined can result in efficient and better compression ratios.

I have tried to burn a DVD with PowerArchiver 2022 Final, but it didn’t work because PA didn’t found the external DVD-Burner.
I have tried several burners from Sony, LG, Dell.
I have connected the burners with several USB-Ports but unfortunately without any success.
With other burning software, e. g. Nero, all burner worked perfect on each USB-Port.
The same problem occured with PA2018 and it was solved with an update, but I don’t remember the detailed software version.
Could you check the possibility of an bug, please?
Thank you for your support in advance! -
Quando creo un archivio zip con un altro programma ad esempio Winrar se apro il file con Winrar vi sono visualizzati anche le date originali di Accesso e Creazione.
Se ottimizzo quel file zip con la funzione Ottimizza archivio di PowerArchivier (o creo un nuovo archivio) il file risultate non ha più le date originali di Accesso e Creazione.
C’è una opzione per preservare questi dati? (Non l’ho trovata nelle impostazioni del programma e ho già abilitato le opzioni “salva info complete cartella” presente in “Profili di compressione”)

When I create a ZIP archive with another program such as Winrar, if I open the file with Winrar, the original Access and Creation dates are also displayed.
If I optimize that zipper file with the Optimize Archive function of PowerArchivier (or create a new archive) the resulting file no longer has the original Access and Creation dates.
Is there an option to preserve this data? (I haven’t found it in the program settings and I have already enabled the “save complete folder info” options in “Compression Profiles”) -
Upgraded from 2021 to 2022. Selecting ‘backup’ no scripts are showed. Only after editing and saving an existing script (explorer) it shows up in the PA backup folder.
So is the ‘backup’ icon to open the Backup screen only for creating ‘new’ ones. This means that you have to open ALL your old pbs files and to save them again… not user friendly.
No way to improve this ? Thank you.b606f084-9d96-461e-b93b-6ba9310a0f6c-image.png
SOLVED inno/windows hangs during C:\Windows\system32\regsvr32.exe” /s "C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\pashlext64.dll
-
2017 17.00.40 - Hung during install. It stuck on registering files.
The icon had appeared on the desktop, so after a few mins I clicked that.
PA opened ok, but the installer was still hung.
-
@PA_Fan FYI I can make the installation finish by using Task Manager (in all users mode) to kill the offending regsvr32.exe which makes the PA setup pop up an error box which and I can then click on, if I remember correctly, “Ignore” and installation then finishes. I think the PA DLL has even been registered correctly after this, though I’m not 100% certain.
-
I had that with 17.00.39 on Windows 7 64 bit.
Haven’t tried 40 yet. -
interesting guys, i wonder whats causing it… we will have to check better next week but it seems like it might be something we dont control.
Good thing about using InnoSetup is that it will work regardless, even in failure… while previous MSI based setup would roll back to previous version and leave you with old PA version.
-
Does Inno, as you’ve configured it for PA, always require the shell explorer.exe to be stopped and restarted? Because I’m pretty sure I saw it kill the wrong one (I have the option selected to run a separate instance of explorer.exe for explorer windows).
-
@Brian-Gregory thats not up to Inno, it is up to windows restart manager that decides what needs to go. But which explorer is right though? Each instance will load our shell?
For some reason version checking does not work well, so it does it each time… we will check it out to see if we can improve it. So restarts would be much less common in that case. There is also a way to rename and then copy workaround that we would have to manually script in inno.
thanks!

@spwolf I watched .41 trying to install with Sysinternals Process Explorer and Process Monitor and it actually seems to be regsvr32.exe that is sticking on the following command line:
“C:\Windows\system32\regsvr32.exe” /s “C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\pashlext64.dll”
Weird. -

@Brian-Gregory another thing, is this always reproducible for you? Thanks!

@spwolf Executing it in a cmd.exe windows looks like it’s working in that I don’t see any error message. Yes it’s reproducible on my main PC (running 64 bit Windows 7 with quite a bit of other stuff installed, including some unusual stuff). I will try my laptop which has less stuff installed on it.
Edit: Just realized I should try in the cmd.exe windows without the /s to see if it’s working.
Edit: Nothing visible without the /s either.
Edit: It installs okay on my laptop. So I guess the problem is probably one of the many bits of software installed on my main PC. -

It’s getting weirder…
"C:\Windows\system32\regsvr32.exe” /s “C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\pashlext64.dll”
runs okay if pasted into a cmd.exe window BUT it hangs if run from a batch file in the same CMD.exe window!?!?!Edit: Okay, now I see what’s happeneing. Actually although it looks like this works when pasted into a CMD prompt it actually doesn’t, a hung regsvr32.exe is still visable in task magaer afterwards! I don’t understand how or why the cmd.exe prompt appears ready for another command though.
Also, and this could be the important bit, if I do the same without the /s (either from the prompt or in a batch file) no success message appears.
Registering a different dll, such as “C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\PASHLEXT.DLL” confirms there should be a success message without the /s.Edit: regsvr32.exe works correctly in all cases mentioned above on my laptop. So everything odd I’ve seen is restricted to my main PC.

This seems to be fixed by renaming the file “C:\Program Files\Box\Box Sync\IconOverlayClient.dll” which is part of BoxSync for Windows available from https://app.box.com/settings/sync
I already thought BoxSync for Windows was utter rubbish compared to DropBox or even GoogleDriveSync but unfortunately I have 50GB free for life on Box and don’t really want to pay for an alternative. But it’s still fairly usable without IconOverlayClient.dll.

@Brian-Gregory I have recently been trying to find out here whether a sudden rash of Sharpshell errors in my Win7 Event Viewer, which seem to roughly coincide with new releases of PA, are indeed connnected to PA or are caused by something else. The view so far is that there appears to be no possible connection.
Your post raises some interesting possibilities.
Sharpshell.dll is only in the Box Sync subfolder in Program Files on my system, and a number of the errors (which I’ve been trying to pin down via Process Monitor logging) refer to “IconOverlayClient”, “SyncIconOverlay” and so forth, all of which, as you say, are related to dlls in the Box Sync folder.
I’m going to rename Sharpshell.dll and see a) if it stops the errors, b) screws up Box (which I never have running automatically anyway) and c) what other effects it may have system-wide. As it happens, I’m in pretty much the same boat as you vis a vis Box, DropBox and GoogleDrive.
Other than that, my experience is that regsvr32.exe doesn’t go to end and close, and after some reinstallation attempts yesterday I ended up with about 6 instances of it running.

as i suggested originally, connection might be that (now we know it is box) box is monitoring folder and setting icon overlays over these icons, or trying to.
It is kind of crazy that they are using some free sdk from internet that has been last updated 3 years ago to build their shell support (based on c#), they likely have several hundred people working there.
-
if we could reproduce this issue here, we could workaround it… so far no go though.
-
@spwolf As you say, it seems pretty sure that Box using Sharpshell is the problem. I see that there is a question about this error on the Box forum, but no-one seems to have tried to answer it in any shape.
I have disabled the .dll, and so far have no errors from Sharpshell. I’m still getting what I think is the associated .NET error, which is infuriating. I cannot see where any Box activity is initiated (Task Scheduler, Startup etc) but I’ll keep looking.

people are likely not checking their error logs :).
I just installed it on my main desktop, and i see that icon in taskbar is not set properly, so Win10 is showing their “empty” image there…
-
@PA_Fan I suspect Box has also done regsvr32.exe on some of it’s DLLs so that things going on elsewhere (I suspect mainly in explorer.exe) can cause activity in box’s DLLs.
-
i was just checking temp folder for pa debugs, and i see that box put overlay icons there… they are broken icons though, maybe thats why there is a problem. They show as unknown image in windows explorer but when you click on it, it is sync/notsync icons.
-
@Brian-Gregory I see there are a host of logfiles for Box in my folder C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Local\Box Sync\Logs, with entries like this:-
“2017-01-26 10:15:20,049 [1] INFO - IconOverlayClient.ProblemIconOverlay: BoxSyncProblem setting up its icon
2017-01-26 10:15:20,065 [1] INFO - IconOverlayClient.SyncedIconOverlay: BoxSyncSynced setting up its icon”Even if the PA problems aren’t fully identified, it now seems to me that my Sharpshell problems are unquestionably down to Box. They also seem to date to the first of these logfiles. It’s still a bit of mystery as to what’s been happening with Box.
-
@Brian-Gregory I managed to see some of what’s happening via Process Explorer. The Box DLLs are tied into Explorer, and the Free Commander (Explorer-type and based utility) context/shell FCcontextMenu64. There’s also a tie into Firefox, which I guess must also be somehow Explorer-related.
-
@PA_Fan i would guess thats everywhere where you right clicked and got shell menu.
You can disable their dll from loading by using shellexview
-
I’m abandoning BoxSync. I’m fed up with it. It just decided it didn’t like me prodding and poking at it trying to get it to behave itself and needs to re-upload a big chunk of my stuff, which it says will take 17 hours. I know this isn’t true though. It’ll take ages and ages and will require me to restart it many times because it times out and says many files have failed to sync. It’d help if it didn’t try and upload dozens of files all at the same time but Box insist that’s how it’s supposed to be and if I don’t like it more or less making my internet connection unusable for any other purpose while it uploads then it’s just tough. I will pay for 100GB in Google Drive.
-
we had @JRSPowerArchiver report something similar during installation. I would guess it is also due to box install then?
I have also moved thread from alpha forums to main forums so other users can see it.
-
@spwolf I’m pretty sure that it is down to Box, as everything began working OK after I carried out the .dll renaming and other actions discussed above.
Sharpshell errors no longer appeared in the Event Viewer, either.
I’m still not exactly sure which elements of PA, Box and Explorer were causing this, why and how, but it’s no longer a problem for me (not that I use Box much anyway), and I think @Brian-Gregory has stopped using it altogether.

yeah, i am aware… but there are many other users who cant quite box even if windows version really does seem to be a shoddy piece of software, regardless of PA issue or not.
So next week we will be working around this problem to see if it is fixable from our end.
Thanks!
