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 use PA as my main backup software using its PBS scripting feature. However, the UI prevents me from doing a standard “full” backup. Namely, I want to be able to archive all files in a folder, REGARDLESS of their archive attribute, then clear their archive attributes when I’m done, to indicate that they have been backed up. However, in the PBS wizard UI, as soon as I turn off the “Add only if archive attribute is set” setting (to ignore the archive attribute and backup everything), the “Clear archive attribute” check box becomes disabled. I have never understood this behavior because it prevents PA from performing a classic “full” backup. Please keep the “Clear archive attribute” available when the “Add only if archive attribute is set” option is turned off. Thank you.

Hi, You should add a option that creates independent spanned zip files, based on approximate file size or maximum amount of files per zip. For example, I’m working on a project that requires ~2,000,000 files that are ~272GB in size. The machine I’m working on has only 60GB of free space, so I can’t put all of these files on the machine at the same time. Current span zip option allows me to split the zip files, but is dependent on all of them for extraction. I would like to create 5GB zip files and move them one by one for processing. After processing I’d delete the extracted files and move in the next zip file. I currently use a software called “SpinZip” which does the above, but I’d really like if it could be implemented in PowerArchiver.

@jowood: There is no Winrar patent, neither in Europe nor in US. correct. I very much doubt that they have patented actual format. however that is still possible, and changes nothing.

You can uncheck ISO from file format list. As to returning Windows Explorer, it is simple. Right click on the file in Windows Explorer, then use Open With> Chose another app… then select Windows Explorer and check Always open with… and thats it, it will always open with Windows Explorer!

One of the features I use a lot in PA is the renaming of individual files inside the package. Unfortunately this action does not have a key command set for it, which I would like to request for the next version. Note: I do /not/ mean the rename archive (F2) function, but the rename function for individual files which is hidden in the actions menu or file context menu.
