For example:
Download this ZIP file: http://dslstats.me.uk/files/dslstats32W-6.5.zip
Everything in the ZIP file is in a directory “dslstats32W-6.5”.
However when I extract using right click “Extract Here” the name of the directory created is “2W-6.5” !
I am running PA 22.00.09 on Windows 11. I have seen the same happen with some other kinds of archive too.
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
If I compress a folder to a .pa using right click, Compress to folder.pa and use the new Windows 11 menu then the Options, Configuration, Miscellaneous, Use normal relative path setting is always enabled.
But I like this option disabled so I have to use the old style menu in order to get PA to compress a folder in the way I wish.
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

PA 22.00.09 shows a nag screen, when I try to open some setting windows. I have already PA 2023 Toolbox and PA shows, that it’s licensed in the info dialog.

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.
Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1165/
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
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.
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 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.

Installing 17.01.06 enabled PowerArchiver Queue when it should have left it disabled as I had it before.
Later: In fact every time I reboot I now find PA Queue is re-enabled. :-(
-
Thanks @Brian-Gregory
It enables queue when starter is selected to start at reboot, even though queue has been disabled.
logging it in

Is there any way I can tell PowerArchiver that when using the .PA format I want it to treat certain file extensions as if they were some other file extension? For instance, I want it to treat .EML, .68H and .ASM as if they were .TXT.

Why when restoring settings from the cloud does 17.01.06 fail to restore very much as all.
I made the mistake of trying 18.00.11 which I view as being as good as unusable since it always prompts with a nag screen.
The when I reinstalled 17.01.06 I had no effective way to get my settings back from your cloud.
Maybe some of them are restored but most are not. Even obvious things like the window position, size and columns on the screen are just not restored. That could only have been missed if absolutely zero testing was done.
I don’t understand why you’re even working on a version 18 when version 17 is still so unfinished.

@brian-gregory we can add them as default, otherwise you cant do it manually now… are they text files always?
-
@brian-gregory nothing computer specific is saved on purpose, since it might not work at all at different resolution. IE if you have one computer with 4k screen, it would render PA at 1080p screen unusable. We actually saved everything before, but user reports from similar problems made us scale back whats saved.
So if you want 1:1 save, export reg settings and save it.
If there is something else that you want saved, let us know. Thanks!

Most often but not always text files. You could add EML (emails in mime format) and ASM (assembler source files) but 68H is very specific to me.
How do I do it manually? Is it the preview settings?

It seemed like nothing worth mentioning was saved.
Or maybe everything that was saved was things I leave as the default.Can’t you save it all and check when restoring for different screen resolution etc that means some of it isn’t applicable.
Do you save everything and strip it out when restoring?
That would be better than nothing because I could just manually restore by double-clicking the file. -
Ahem. -----
-
@brian-gregory i have to move it to separate post and check it out
-
@spwolf I meant:
How do I do it manually? Is it the preview settings?
and
Do you save everything and strip it out [what might cause trouble] when restoring?
-
So you’re just NEVER going to tell me how to do it???

If you use Options> Export to local file, it seems like everything gets saved.
Can you tell me what settings did not get restored for you via Cloud?
