    J

    I’m looking forward to deploying PowerArchiver 2023 to my users. Can you tell us when the MSI will be available for download and distribution?

    Thanks.

    Missing Icons
    LuxorL

    Just tried using the Modern (Windows 10) Icon set and seeing a few missing icons in both PowerArchiver Burner and PowerArchiver Encryption screens . They are all there in the Minimalistik icon set and the only difference I can see is the former is blue and the latter grey. In version 22.00.9

    BigMikeB

    Hi there,

    there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:

    https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1164/

    As it seems, that PowerArchiver and PACL use the 7zip libraries, could you please update them to the latest version?

    Hi,

    From where I get PAVD2023.EXE? PowerArchiver 2023 tries to open it.
    But it seems, it tries to download PAVD2021.EXE.

    Thanks

    Better ZPAQ support
    W

    I noticed that the version of ZPAQ used is older than the latest released 7.15 https://mattmahoney.net/dc/zpaq.html also there seems to be a newer fork that adds several features https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz

    It would be useful to implement this latest version (it also maintains the same syntax and behavior as the latest official release if used the -715 flag) and add when opening a zpaq file a choice of the version of the files to show (e.g. as dummy folders represented the various versions present). Since any previous changes are stored with this format, it is possible to extract a snapshot of a certain date/version.

    Bug with "Encrypt Archive" action
    W

    If I open a password-protected zipper file (created with WinRAR but I think that’s irrelevant), open it with PowerArchiver and run “Remove Encryption” on the same file, then reopen it and add a password with “Encrypt Archive,” the resulting archive will be protected with the old ZipCrypto algorithm and not AES as indicated.
    (this can be verified, for example, by trying to open the archive files with Windows Explorer, which does not support the AES algorithm)

    PA 21.00.18 Action / Test behaves oddly for me on .PA files
    Brian GregoryB

    PA 21.00.18 running on Windows 7 64 bit.
    I made a big .PA file and thought I’d check it was made correctly with Menu / Actions / Test.
    Discovered:
    a) PA always issues a UAC prompt to do this!
    b) PA always says there are many errors in PA files.

      Firstly, this could affect any and all builds of PA2017 as I didn’t check before

      Enable “Highlight Archives” (default colour for me is white) as soon as I choose a different colour I am thrown out of PA and land in a background app (Vivaldi browser)

      Back in PA, Options, Enable “Highlight Archives” remains checked with default colour white!

      I’m using Charamel theme, so file listing pane is also white
      Oh Holy Shit, my Skins list only has Classic Light, Classic Simple, Classic Dark so don’t ask me to try testing other skins. I won’t be able to get back to Charamel if I do

        haha, where have all the skins gone? :)

        as to the highlight, it seems to just lose focus, go back to PA window and click ok in Config, and it seems to work? White color is bad since it is same as background color of file list… try some other color.

              Fixed!

              Back in PA, Options, Enable “Highlight Archives” remains checked with default colour white!

              Not Fixed, keeps reverting to White for me
              Using Classic Simple (fastest) skin at the moment

              Using Classic Light skin, colour coding works again with some interesting twists. Change the Base colour to something other than White and Highlight Archives colour synced with it LOL

              I’m using Charamel theme, so file listing pane is also white
