Backup and Comments

Finding it strange, I can’t add a comment to a Backup in the Backup module. I’m not saying it would be highly useful or anything but just odd it’s missing!

There are some command line options described in the help, but we recommend using PACL if you need those things, becasue PACL is more than just simple commnad line utility. There is a big set of features you can use while compressing/decompressing. We do not want to have “full” command line support in PowerArchiver, as this would make application even bigger. If someone uses this (that are not all users), then please use PACL.

PBS "archive attribute" settings prevent "full" backup

PA2004 retains a bug in previous versions that I (still) wish would get fixed. I use PA’s PBS files to periodically backup project folders. In a typical “full” backup, I want to be able to archive all files in an entire folder (even if the archive attribute of a file is NOT set), then reset the archive attribute of all archived files. PA prohibits me from doing this because it enables the “clear archive attribute” check box only when the “add only if archive attribute is set” check box is checked. So if I want to use PA to archive all files, I have to reset the archive attributes “manually” after the fact. Please make the “clear archvie attribute” check box available even if the “add only if archive attribute is set” check box is cleared. Thank you.

I request that it be considered to include a bit more complex options for the “method” setting for the backup script. A setting that would _only _update and add new files, without taking the time to recompress the entire archive would be nice. Also, a setting to delete files from the backup that had been deleted from the source would be good. The first thing especially I think would increase greatly the speed involved in making an incremental backup. Thanks. Adam__

I suppose there’s countless options that we would find useful for our preferences in a backup situation…I’m sure the team will give it some thought as they always seem to do when a request surfaces…:)

From what I understand, the only way to add comments to archive types that support it (Zip at least) is to go into the main program and open actions>comment. It doesn’t seem accessible from either the shell (Compress to ZIP + Options) or from the Compression Profiles. I usually add a tagline to my archives, and usually work from the shell extensions since it’s must faster when archiving then using the whole GUI each time. I’d love to see a way to add a default comment via a Profile, and also a way to enter comments into the Add dialogue when doing ZIP+Options from the shell.
