It would be nice to be able to at least extract Zstandard archives.

I prefer to use light themes, and when, for example, I have set up my main archive screen to be Classic Toolbar with Blizzard Blue, files in the archive are highlighted (no checkboxes, full row select) with white text on grey background. They are easy to see .
However, in the Add screens, the files and folders are black type upon a pale blue background, which is not so readily visible, especially when highlighting separate files in lists with Ctrl/Click for addition. It would be ideal if the backgrounds to files in these screens could be set to mimic the highlighting of those in the main archive window.
I have tried experimenting with different themes and settings for skins, toolbars and so forth, but, unless I’ve missed something, none seem to give me the effect I want.

Re: Windows 11 Context menu support
It would really make me happy if you put .BH in the Windows 11 context menu. I know it’s in the “More Options” section, but this would make it more convenient. Don’t know why the option to add it to the menu isn’t there in the first place. P-L-E-A-S-E ??? :) Thanks You!

Any chance of including this format in a future release?

Exceptional compression levels.
Thanks.

Now that the Windows Store is making support for non-UWP apps mainstream, including those with their own update delivery process, it would be nice to see PowerArchiver in the Windows Store going forwards - at least as a channel for the product to be available.

Tell us what features you want from new format…

In Windows 11 a new explorer context menu is introduced.
The “old” context menu may still be accessed through an additional mouse click, to reach the PowerArchiver context menu functions, but this isn’t comfortable at all.Could you add PowerArchiver items to the first level (and ideally disable the Windows native ZIP entry)

I’m surprised that OneDrive for Business isn’t supported. I can’t link my company’s OneDrive account, but a personal (free) account works fine.

Hi,
I’d like to propose an improvement for password protected archives.
Actual behavior is:
If I open an archive, which is password protected and make a typo in the password dialog, I’ll get the message, that the password was wrong and I end up with an empty window. I need to reopen the archive to be able to enter the password again.Improved behavior:
Tell me, that the password was wrong and give me the chance to enter the correct password to decrypt the archive. -
Hello!
I know I have been asking for this feature some time ago, but as nothing has changed let me ask again:
The ZIPX-format offers an algorithm, that compresses JPEG-files by about 20-30%. Please add compression (packing) support for this in ZIPX-archives to Powerarchiver. Extraction of JPEGs packed into ZIPX by this algorithm is already supported by Powerarchiver for a long time, so it should not be difficult? Or is it a licensing problem?
Thanks! -
Hi,
I’d like to suggest, that the correct archive type is (always) selected, when adding files by drag & drop to an archive.
This is already happening if the archive has the correct extension. For example, if I’m adding files to test.zip, zip will be selected. If I’m adding files to test.7z, 7z will be selected as format in “Add dialog”.
But this won’t be working, if the archive has not the “right” extension.
So XPI files (Firefox addons) for example are ZIP files. PowerArchiver opens them without any problems, but if I try to add file by drag & drop, PowerArchiver won’t auto select “ZIP”, but use the last selected archive format, while PowerArchiver already knows, that I’m trying to add files to a ZIP. -
I love this, only there is one problem. The UAC elevation feature does not extend to Mount Image option in the add-on software PA provided. It is most annoying whenever I am on highest UAC settings and I mount an ISO, every time I open and create a virtual drive UAC appears. I also do not want to completely disable UAC.
Is adding UAC elevation for mount image feature possible?

The now defunct Bulkzip had Nanozip (nz) as an option this would be great to have for compatibility with my .nz files, so I don’t have to install Bulkzip separately.
Disk Images and ShellExt bug
-
Hello all! I think it would be good if PowerArchiver can open ISO CD images, floppy images, like WinRAR do. And need to correct ShellExtensinons. I have selected which menu items to display in context menu, but it seems like PowerArchiver still displaying default items, not these I selected.
-
Hi!
I support your wish! ;)
Also it would be nice if PA can WRITE ISO files (not read-only, like WinRAR)
Thanks! -
Hello NTFS. It is quite stupid that we can’t speak here in ukrainian or russian, respecting forum rules :-/ :-) can you send me translation SDK for PA? I have mailed them, but there is no reply for long time. And why your ukrainian translation isn’t on download page?
-
…why your ukrainian translation isn’t on download page?
Hello Viruz,
It was there, but they found some bugs in 9.2 final and removed it and other final releases…
It will be there on ~Monday…
thanks, -
And need to correct ShellExtensinons. I have selected which menu items to display in context menu, but it seems like PowerArchiver still displaying default items, not these I selected.
Some more information about this?
It works fine for me.What version of PA?
Which options have you selected/unselected?
(Screenshot might help).
Are you using Windows Explorer or a shell/extension?
Which version of Windows?
If releveant, are you logged in as user or administrator? -
Hello TBGBe! I have 9.01 version. Installed on Windows 98, w2k, XP. The same. No matter what options I select, after closing dialogbox with options, and closing PA, in Windows Explorer’s context menu are default items. But when I install PA over old installation, with same version, all works fine.
-
Well, 9.01 is an old version - current release is 9.11 and there is a 9.20 beta.
Did you re-boot the PC after installing PA and before trying these options? The shell dll needs a Windows reboot to be updated.
Are you sure that you do not have a Windows Explorer screen open when making the selections?
Note: I have also used PA on Win98, Win2k and WinXP but I never had this problem after rebooting - unless an explorer window was open at the time I made the configuration choices.
