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. -
When adding to a file archive, and selecting for example PA format, strong optimization method, extreme compression. In the Advanced Options section you change to Automatic, EXE Filter and PDF filter . You return to the main section and save the Profile. When you then reload the profile you do not have the Automatic options of EXE Filter and PDF saved there.
I noticed that instead if you change other options they are saved correctly (except for the Filter box values).Also among the various changes to the advanced options you click the “Calculate RAM usage” button the value seems to be added to the previous one. You can see it for example just by clicking the button twice in a row, the value changes. Edit: actually after many attempts now it seems to write a stable value (it does not change with each click). Maybe a synchronization problem in the calculation?
Used PowerArchivier 2023 but there is the same behavior with the 2022
UNSOLVED Offline code does not work

seems a problem with the latest version of powerarchiver that offline registration code does not work however the online code does why is this.

as usual, offline codes are based on specific version while online ones work with any version.
So I assume you are trying PA 2017 offline codes with PA 2018 and it wont work while online codes will.
If you need offline codes for PA 2018, email support and we will send them over (in case you plan to use it on computer thats offline).
thanks!

are you sure it does not say 2017 specifically? Unless we sent them manually, there is no way to get PA 2018 offline codes now.

i bought the 2018 version with lifetime licence and it came with online and offline registration.
