using forward and back mouse buttons in interface

I wonder if you could use the mouse forward and back buttons to navigate in an archive. I am sooo used to using the buttons on my mouse for that it STILL takes me ages to remember to double-click on the little folder with the double-dots.

Mni tnx,

DrT

This is a bug in some way. I had a file that was split into several files ending in .001 .002 etc however pa could not open them even extract them. However the first file had a pa icon. Then i was told that it was these were files split by a program called hjsplit. Is it possible to include these features into powerarchiver so that i can use it from within pa. After all the program is essentially doing what a compression program is doing but easier if you get my drift.

it is good idea, we need to complicate it a bit to make it work but it should be fine.

Feature / Bug: MSI Plugin Displaying Internal CABs

The MSI Plug-in currently displays the File table entries AND the .CAB files. In every other archive type, the presence of .CAB files indicates a “Compressed archive”. Those unfamiliar with MSI will not realize that everything in those CAB files is already being displayed as files at the same “level” as the cab files. Technically by seeing the file list from the File table, you are seeing the directory of everything contained in those cabs. They just “happen” to be stored in the MSI as well. Double-clicking a cab file results in a slow and unnecessary extraction of the CAB and then viewing it as it’s own archive. Not only that, but as you hunt for the CAB with the right file, you have to keep doing it for each cab (The .MSI for the Windows Automated Installation Kit (WAIK) contains 5 cabs that make up it’s file set - where clicking the file in the file list will find it in the cab for you. I propose that the CABs that are referenced by the MSI media table should not be displayed in the file list. Rather they should be viewed like the “parts of a multipart archive” that should never be in the file view. The fact that the CABs are compressed into the MSI (they are not actually IN the File table, but MSI streams) is a side issue to viewing the “whole MSI as an achive” I hope I am making sense - just didn’t want all the cool work of creating the file list to be lost on people directly rummaging the CABs due to that being the standard operation with all other archive types. Thanks, D.

would be nice if we could turn on a inbuilt debugger so the software catches the bug and tells you the developer where the bug is coming from inside the software.

@iampedro: We can do it just you first have to open it in PA is there an option to right click on an exe/msi and say extract to or extract just like zip’s or other compress files? yes, that already exists in PA 2013… try it on PA setup - extract exe, and then MSI in it as well. If it does not auto-detect some exe’s (all MSI’s should work), then send us the link (email?) and we will add support for those SFX’s.

Ctrl+L works as you say, i.e. it goes back (thanks, never used that before). However, closing the window (with the ‘X’) closes the whole thing, it does not go back…and never has done here in all past versions I can recall. Cheers DrT
