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.

Just a question is Ashampoo zip pro 4 built by Powerrachiver as it is very similar and uses the pae encryption.

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.

SOLVED Folder navigation not working correct in archive view

Hi, I’m using the explorer view with folders in archive mode.
The problem is, that the folder navigation is only working with the first archive tab. If I open a second one, the folder pane gets blank instead of showing a new folder navigation:
Version: PowerArchiver 18.00.53 x64

Hi,
my problem isn’t fixed in the new build:
- Open PowerArchiver
- In Archive view, navigate to an archive and open it
- The folder pane shows the archive folder structure
- Click on “(+)”
- The folder pane goes blank instead of showing the complete folder tree

@BigMike When you click on +, you open new empty tab. It has no archive open, so it has nothing in the folder panel? It cant show anything there if there is no archive open there?

Hi,
when I open up PowerArchiver,- no archive is open
- in the folder panel, the top element is “Desktop” and I see the standard Windows elements “My Profile, My PC, Libraries…” and can browse my computer
- when I browse to an archive and double click on it, the folder pane switsches to the archive context, the top element is “Archive name”
- I thought if I click on the “(+)” and a new empty “(No Archive)” tab opens, the folder pane will switch back to the PC context with “Desktop” as top element (as no archive is open in this tab), instead it gets empty and shows only an archive icon
By the way I just realized,
- open up PowerArchiver
- click the (+) tab, while no archive is open in the first tab
- the folder area will be empty and therefore useless regardless which tab is active
- diasabling and reenabling folder pane will restore the “PC view”, but navigation only works for the first tab, the second tab stays empty while I navigate in the folder pane.
-
Yes, I’ve known about this ever since the very beginning of 2018.
Funny thing is closing the new tab and BAM it’s the way it should be LOL

Oh, now I understand - you want to browse the disk in explorer mode in other tab.
We never meant it to be used that way, since there is Explorer mode with 2 panels and it seems to be perfect for exactly that.
But it certainly can be added to next more major release… I will write it up now.
-
@BigMike @ckit we will just make it so it opens up archive in new tab and changes focus to that one… while explorer view stays in main tab. Works?
-
Please make sure that those of us who never want to browse the file system (only archives) in PowerArchiver can still work the way we want. (‘Use Explorer Only Inside Archive’ switched on)

yes, this is given of course.
Whole problem here comes from our main idea that people who want explorer hdd browsing, will use explorer mode with dual panels… of course, not everyone does, so next solution will work fine for everyone :)

Actually, I don’t think, this is what I like to have…
My Explorer Mode has a folder pane, which is fixed to my “PC view”, I can’t browse an archive’s folder structure.My Archive Mode has a hybrid folder pane: If I open an archive, I’ll be able to browse the archive’s folders. If no archive is open, I’ll be able to browse my pc.
Depending on my tasks and the archive’s structure I’m using different modes and like them as they are now.
If, in archive view, you open up a new tab, but the folder pane stays connected to the first pane, you won’t be able to browse the archive’s folder structure anymore - as @Brian-Gregory states.
Actually, I really like the current behavior when switching from Explorer Mode to Archive Mode: I get the archive in a tab and the folder pane in Archive Mode refers to the archive. This probably won’t work if you fix the folder pane in Archive Mode to a “My PC view”?

It will work as you want, plus you will always be able to use explorer hdd view in archive mode.
Folder panel is always related to the tab you are focused on.
So in archive mode with explorer hdd browsing, you will get first tab always being explorer disk browse (if you have unchecked use only in archives) , and then all archives will open in 2,3,4th, etc tabs… and when you click on tab with archive, folder panel will show folders in archive.

This sounds really good :)
