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.
WinRAR 5 has a rather useful option in some cases, which is to be able to create an archive by replacing identical files with a reference to the first occurrence (hardlink) within the archive.
In case you choose to convert the file with PowerArchiver to another format, however, the resulting archive does not have all the files. It does not consider those that were present as hardlinks.
If you do a normal extraction of the RAR archive instead, even with PowerArchivier, all the files are extracted correctly.
Solved Skins, and File Exploer right click menu

Hi
Why are only 3 skins listed when the program ships with far more than this? Why are the icons on the right click menu in File Explorer Red, that’s not the Powerarchiver colour one expects.

thanks for letting us know… we were aware of the skins issue, seems to be something that popped up in… final release! Always nice. As to the red, it was our color during testing, it will be go back in next release. Thanks again!

Really, I thought Red was going to be the new 2017 look for the icons, I don’t mind either way. I’m testing Vivaldi 1.11 latest snapshot and program icon for testing is black but public final release will be red

yeah, main icon has returned to yellow already… but sure, I also grew fond of red, now yellow seems a bit … plain? :)

thanks for the report, we sent you new Toolbox license as gratitude…

The Toolkit license, was that for the report I sent in? I actually modified the 2 files that contained the red icons and replaced them until the next patch :)
