    • PowerArchiver 2022 Final does not find external DVD-Burner

      U

      I have tried to burn a DVD with PowerArchiver 2022 Final, but it didn’t work because PA didn’t found the external DVD-Burner.
      I have tried several burners from Sony, LG, Dell.
      I have connected the burners with several USB-Ports but unfortunately without any success.
      With other burning software, e. g. Nero, all burner worked perfect on each USB-Port.
      The same problem occured with PA2018 and it was solved with an update, but I don’t remember the detailed software version.
      Could you check the possibility of an bug, please?

    • PowerArchivier don't save Created and Accessed timestamp

      W

      Quando creo un archivio zip con un altro programma ad esempio Winrar se apro il file con Winrar vi sono visualizzati anche le date originali di Accesso e Creazione.
      Se ottimizzo quel file zip con la funzione Ottimizza archivio di PowerArchivier (o creo un nuovo archivio) il file risultate non ha più le date originali di Accesso e Creazione.
      C’è una opzione per preservare questi dati? (Non l’ho trovata nelle impostazioni del programma e ho già abilitato le opzioni “salva info complete cartella” presente in “Profili di compressione”)
      /
      When I create a ZIP archive with another program such as Winrar, if I open the file with Winrar, the original Access and Creation dates are also displayed.
      If I optimize that zipper file with the Optimize Archive function of PowerArchivier (or create a new archive) the resulting file no longer has the original Access and Creation dates.
      Is there an option to preserve this data? (I haven’t found it in the program settings and I have already enabled the “save complete folder info” options in “Compression Profiles”)

    • Unlisted pbs files

      pirrbe

      Upgraded from 2021 to 2022. Selecting ‘backup’ no scripts are showed. Only after editing and saving an existing script (explorer) it shows up in the PA backup folder.
      So is the ‘backup’ icon to open the Backup screen only for creating ‘new’ ones. This means that you have to open ALL your old pbs files and to save them again… not user friendly.
      No way to improve this ? Thank you.

    • Access violation with scaling > 100%

      K

      Hi,

      I have a 31" 4K screen with 3840x2160 pixel, which PA is able to handle - except of a scaling other than 100%.
      When changing scaling for this screen to 125%, starting PA brings the following exception:

      Access violation at address 0000000..DF47A4 in module 'powerarc.exe'. Schreiben of address 0000...00330.

      After closing this message, PA seems to work fine.
      PA version 21.00.15 (03/2022) 64bit (tested with Win 10 and after upgrade Win 11)

      Is there any chance to avoid this access violation or this message?

      Thanks and regards,

    • Problems with registry restrictions on PA 2021 and sending reg codes

      Hi,

      I thought, I’ll give it a try and upgrade my PA 2018 Toolbox on my production machine to PA 2021 (20.10.03)

      Sending registration codes in your order recovery doesn’t seem to work at the moment (I also checked my junk folder), online activation works Using registry to disable modules (for example HKLM\SOFTWARE\PowerArchiverInt\General\DisableBurning) doesn’t work as expected with modern ui. The module is visible, but I’ll get the trial nag, if I try to open it. It’s almost fine in classic and ribbon mode.

      “DisableClouds” and “DisableExplorer” seem not to be respected at all, while the classic UI seems to respect the setting to disable any other unused module:

      Hi,

      1. Context menu: Compress to 7-zip + Options…

      The Ultra compression seems that does NOT work, because I can only get best compression using the context menu: Compress to “XXXXXFile.7z”

      1. Compression profiles

      When a 7-zip profile is configured the Ulta Compression is not shown in combo.

      Best regards!

        Hi,

        thanks for info on profiles. As to compression in shell extensions, in works here - keep in mind that for some files, you wont be able to see the difference between different compression methods…

        thanks,

          Hello again,

          I have a folder with a total of 1.54MB of files and sub-folders (with more files).

          1. Right click the folder and select Compress to “folder.7z” I got a file of 289 KB;

          2. Right click the folder and select Compress to 7-zip + Options… and select Ultra compression I got a file of 434 KB;

          3. Right click the folder and select Compress to 7-zip + Options… and select Maximum compression I got a file of 434 KB too.

          So, from shell (+Options) Ultra and Maximum produce the same file compression.

          I have tested it several times…

            do you have compression profiles set, or anything other than default installation? Did you reboot your computer after installation of 9.00?

              Yes, I re-started it.

              Yes, I had a profile, but I deleted.

              I made another test with same results…

              I have 7-zip installed, but I don’t think this is the problem…

              I will make more tests and I’ll get back here to post…

              Thank you.

                The profile problem will be fixed in next release.

                One more information. Compress to file.7z now uses Ultra compression + Solid, so to get same results via +Options feature you must turn on also Solid compression.

                I will do some small change for next version, so Compress to file.7z uses Maximum + Solid instead of Ultra + Solid (since Ultra can cause memory problems).

                  After check “Solid” now it’s working fine.

                  I have tested (just one test!) Maximum+Solid and I got the same result as Ultra+Solid, however Maximum+Solid was faster.

                  Thanks.

                    Sure, ultra can be better only on very big sets of files (with solid option) or on very big files (without solid option). The difference is in dictionary size and when some dictionary size is enought for some files,then there is no difference in ratio. But maximum is always faster and uses less memory.

                        All the Explorer shell direct (compress to NN) options should really have dedicated configuration options.

                          yea, but I guess nowadays all PCs have at least 256MB of RAM…and most of them run WinXP…it’s obvious that devs spend most of their efforts on those kind of system…(I’ve got 2GB of RAM :D )

                          anyway…What do you mean by “All the Explorer shell direct (compress to NN) options should really have dedicated configuration options”?
                          Can’t you create your own profile via Configuration -> CompressionProfiles?

                              problem with that would be inexperienced users changing it and then thinking its PA’s fault. We already have fair share of people asking us how come PA doesnt compress mp3’s or jpg’s…
