    Missing Icons
    LuxorL

    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

    Security vulnerabilities in 7zip / Update for PowerArchiver and PACL libraries?
    BigMikeB

    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

    Better ZPAQ support
    W

    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.

    Bug with "Encrypt Archive" action
    W

    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 Action / Test behaves oddly for me on .PA files
    Brian GregoryB

    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.

    Solved 18.00.46, the most minor bug possible

      Hi,

      I have noticed that when I load PA, even without an archi9ve, the progress bar on the lower right is half full. If an archive is loaded, the bar gets a little larger, but the green filled-in bit stays the same size.

      Cheers

        @drteeth hah :)

        It is action indicator… green means PA is not busy and red means it is working :).
        Since 2001 I think.

        In my defense, it had changed from round to square ;-).

        Cheers

        it was new design, to match rest of the interface but also to hid a bug in status bar where sides are not transparent :)

        So it is actually ok? Just making sure.

            Hi spwolf,

            Here they are. It occurred to me that the green square in the lower right is some sort of colour indicator and not a progress bar.0_1523025563347_2018-04-06_15h35_40.png0_1523025576361_2018-04-06_15h36_39.png

                @drteeth so when is it half full? Can we find that situation? It would mean that the image is half hidden basically, since it has only two states - green and red.

                    When a file is loaded, it looks to me as if the space to the right of the green indicator increases. That is all I see. Sorry for any confusion.

                    Cheers and have a great weekend,
