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.

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.

HI.
I have here a little problem.
Actually I have encrypted a small file, 30MB, to an encrypted 7zip Archiv. This works very well.
But now I wanted to encrypt a big file which is 1.3GB large.
I use the same options like before for the small file. But I now get a 1KB file. When I try to open it I get only an error massege that powerarchiver 2017 can not open this file. The file seems not to be an valid Archiv.But as I said, I use the same Options to create an encrypted file from the big file as I use for the small file.
With powerarchiver 2016 i haven’t this Problems. When I use an big file like the one from above, all works well.
So what can i do to make an valid encrypted Archiv with the big file?
Or I maybe go back to powerarchiver 2016?Thanks for your help.

@mduss This should be fixed in new release:
https://forums.powerarchiver.com/topic/5848/fast-ring-powerarchiver-2017-17-01-04/7Can you let us know if it works fine? In PAES, it will prioritize speed over compression here.
thank you!

@mduss hello, are you using latest PA version? (.92) and what are your OS and your cpu/memory? What are 7z settings?
Also try using PA format instead of 7z, and let us know if that works. Thanks!

Hi spwolf
Today I have installed the new Version from PowerArchiver: 17.00.92.
This Version have the same Problem.
I use Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit and 32GB RAM with an Intel core i7 5930When I wanted to encrypt an Archiv I used the following way:
I use the kontextmenue in the file Explorer and use encrypt.Here I use the following Options:
target Format: 7-zip
compression:
Format: 7-zip
method: LZMA2
packing: Ultra
generate solid Archive: yesencryption method: AES - 256 Bit
This are the Options I use.
With small files like 50MB there is no Problem.
But when I wanted to encrypt a large file like an 800MB or several files which have togehter a large file size or so than I will get only a small 1KB file.But after some test I think I have found the Problem Kombination:
When I use the Methode LZMA2 AND one of the following Options for packing: Ultra, Maximum or normal, than I get this error.
When I use fast or None, than I haven’t this problem.So I think there is an error in the packing method Ultra, Maximum and normal with the LZMA2 method
But my Problem is, that I can not use the new PA format because I load this encrypted file to an webhoster so other Users from my Forum can download them. This archives are Game Mods.
And not everyone from my Forum use powerarchiver.
So I use a file format which can open from other archive programs too like 7zip.
So my favorite target Format is 7-zip. And I use LZMA2 and Ultra because the higher compression rate.With powerarchiver 2016 I didn’t have this Problems. With 2016 everything works fine with the same Options I described above.
So I will use 7-zip, LZMA2 and fast Options at the moment.
Thanks.

@mduss lets try this - right click on files in explorer and pick compress with options… now try same combination, does it work? It actually should work, there was some fix implemented in main PA, maybe not in paes.exe.
Also, for testing purposes, can you use pa/extreme for same file, just so we can see what is the size difference between PA and 7z?
thanks!

Hi spwolf.
The method with “compress with options” works very well. Here I have no problems.
So the Problem seems to be the paes.exe.The differences between pa/extrem and 7-zip LZMA2/Ultra are very small.
Depending on the used files the differences are 1 till 2 MB.
Here the Files had a complete size from 323MB and they were multiple files with difference file Format like .exe, .pdf and so on. The pa file was 2 till 3 MB smaller.With an other file I had a difference from 8MB. This was an single .zip archiv with 810MB witch I have encrypted with the Explorer Kontext “compress to…”
The filesize was 810MB. And here the pa file was 8MB smaller.So I think the paes.exe needs an fix.
By the way.
Do you have any Infos regarding this Problem?
