Re: Explorer.exe Crash on right click
This appears to be happening again with the Power Archiver 2022 shell extensions.
When I have Use Explorer Shell Extensions enabled in Power Archiver Configuration and right-click on c:\Users\username\Start Menu, (hidden Junction file), File Explorer crashes.
I have version 21.00.15 (03/2022) 64-bit installed in Windows 10 Version 21H2 (Build 19044.1826).

Powerarchiver 2022
Right-click and select Encrypt on a folder does not work.
Although it says it encrypts, there is no encrypted file in the destination folder. -
The online update feature within the program suggests there is a later version than the ‘.17’ available on the web site. But clicking either download or update just reinstalls version .17.
Either there isn’t an update OR
the “download” and 'update" links should be repaired. -

Hi,
When you click on the Buy Now link, you come across four tabs - Home or Work, Enterprise Unlimited, Educational Discount, & Gift Discount.
What is the difference between a licence purchased via Gift Discount and a Home/Work licence?
Also, how can I renew the PowerArchiver Select plan a year after the purchase? Will it remind me automatically?
Best,

I’m running PA 21.00.17 64-bit on a 64-bit i7 desktop with W10 Pro, latest version. This 32gb of installed RAM.
As I use the PA pbs system for a number of scheduled archiving operations throughout the day, PA Starter is set to load and run at system startup.
In the course of trying to identify some causes of slowness and bottlenecks in other processes, I notice that PA Starter (PAS) always runs at between 11% and 15% of CPU (see screenshot), usually at about 12-13%. This is by far the highest demanding process on the system, as shown by Task Manager. In Performance Monitor, PAS Average CPU is 8.32, with every other process at less that 1 i.e. in decimal places only.
Task Manager also shows PAS Power Usage as “Very High”, and is the only process shown thus.
I have looked again at the information about PAS at https://wiki.powerarchiver.com/en:help:details:powerarchiver_starter, which was last modified in 2016. The article states a low memory usage for PAS of 784k, which is fair enough, but it is the large CPU overhead which is of concern.
It is of course possible to change the PAS priority, but this has no effect on CPU overhead.
However, is it possible to change PAS, which is required only at intervals to initiate PA scheduled tasks, from consuming so much system resource for every moment of the day?

I’m experiencing very slow extraction speed of multipart RAR files. For the first part the extraction is super fast but when PA reaches the part2.rar the extraction from there on gets super slow. PA needed for a 6,3 GB multipart archive 30 minutes to extract. I tested then with another program and it just took 70 seconds. I had this slow extraction speed with PA for quite a long time and I always thought that is maybe because of a high compression rate that the extraction would take longer. But it seems that only PA gets that slow.
I have lots of multipart archives that are 10+ GB and with PA it would be really time consuming. Is there any solution to this?

Hi. The “Move” Action seems to be Not Working when used in the Tool – Batch Archive.
Using the Options – Configuration – Compression Profiles ---- I created a Profile with the Action of Move. Also set were Zip, and Method Deflate.
When I use the Tool - Batch Archive – It appears to me that the Action Move does not Move the compressed files (basically add to zip, and delete the added file from original location on the same disk). Zip file(s) are created and look ok.
Typically I on the Batch Archive process – I have selected options to use a Profile with the Move Action.
File’s Current Folder Group files from same folder into same archive Add subfolders to separate archivesMy PowerArchiver version is 21.00.17 .
Can you reproduce ? – Or do you need additional details or information?

Hello,
PowerArchiver Command Line 7 support file greater than 2 Go ?
Thanks
-
i just registered my own copy and i need some help to set it…
if i set the ‘configuration>shell extension>open folder after extracting’ checkbox, after decompress an archive is opened the file manager on that folder but… if somebody is using a different file manager how to open XYplorer or Directory Opus for example and NOT the MS file manager?
consider this as a feature request also if not available within the 2022 version

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.

Just a question is Ashampoo zip pro 4 built by Powerrachiver as it is very similar and uses the pae encryption.

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.
Reference:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/zlib-compression-whitepaper-copy.pdfCan we get the same Functionality Under Hardware Acceleration Feature?
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.

UNSOLVED Virtual Drive - Long running problem
-
You may recall that I have had a long running problem of being unable to get the virtual drive system to work properly in my Win 7 x64 main OS on my main PC. I have had NO problems at all in other widows partitions that I have installed. This lack of success has been accompanied by finding, downloading and installing the latest drivers used.
So, I backed up and installed the virtual drive software. I attempted to create a virtual drive and was apparently successful according to the message that appeared on screen. However, no additional drive letters were used and no drives (without letters) were found in the disk management section of the computer management applet. I created two such drives this way.
Realising that there was not much more I could do, I rebooted and was accompanied by a never-ending rebooting screen so had to use the reset button to reboot. I do have some virtual drive software that works and does the job, but I just do not like computers to win! We have tried everything possible in the past, and IIRC, the people who write the software you use were less than lelpful, understandardly so to be fair, as this was the only case of this issue that they had come across.
I have no doubt that we would have the problem licked if it was written in house.
One matter that I had not come across before is that on uninstalling the software, one gets a (windows generated) message that it is installed in the same place as PA 2017 and all files may not be able to be removed. I was actually using Revo Uninstaller to remove the virtual drivers software and much of what was said to be left over from the uninstall was most of PA itself. I have never seen this before and would suggest that these two programs are separated as in the past to avoid a possible Tsunami of error requests when less knowledgable users find out that their PA install no longer works.
With kindest regards as always

@drteeth seems like a good summary to me. Not sure if it would help revo if it is installed in separate folder, people hated Patchbeam being installed that way because they thought it was some kind of monitoring software or something crazy like that.
-
This issue has nothing to do with Revo Uninstaller and it is not the situation that I am reporting, especially as PA 2016 does not produce the same error messages. PLUS, the situation does not worry me at all. The issue that I was reporting wasd the continual issue of the Virtual Drive system not working at all on this PC*.
*It does work on every other windows installation on this PC, recently dropped from four to two, and every other windows partition that has been used for testing. I do have other FreeWare that provides a virtual drive for ISO. The reason for the software drop is that I am upgrading my CPU/motherboard very soon and just need to see how the priaces settle down in a few weeks.
Best regards

yes, i am quite aware of what you meant, thats why I said good summary. As you mentioned above, VD is not our code, we cant really fix it for (usually very rare) instances that it does not work well.
Thanks!
