For example:
Download this ZIP file: http://dslstats.me.uk/files/dslstats32W-6.5.zip
Everything in the ZIP file is in a directory “dslstats32W-6.5”.
However when I extract using right click “Extract Here” the name of the directory created is “2W-6.5” !
I am running PA on Windows 11. I have seen the same happen with some other kinds of archive too.
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
If I compress a folder to a .pa using right click, Compress to folder.pa and use the new Windows 11 menu then the Options, Configuration, Miscellaneous, Use normal relative path setting is always enabled.
But I like this option disabled so I have to use the old style menu in order to get PA to compress a folder in the way I wish.
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

PA 22.00.09 shows a nag screen, when I try to open some setting windows. I have already PA 2023 Toolbox and PA shows, that it’s licensed in the info dialog.

Some labels in the help toolbar are not translated:

I’m looking forward to deploying PowerArchiver 2023 to my users. Can you tell us when the MSI will be available for download and distribution?
Thanks.
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
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.
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 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.
PowerArchiver 9.20 (final) ZIP Extraction Bug
-
PowerArchiver 9.20 is unable to extract both files in this archive. It will extract only the HTML file. It complains that it is part of a spanned archive, but it is not. Microsoft Windows XP integrated ZIP is able to extract the file
http://home.att.net/~jameskass/CODE2000.ZIP
I reported this before but it isn’t fixed in 9.20 final!
-
its the ttf file thats causing the problem on testing with pa it sayes the s same error message above but if you test it and click on the ok button a few times it sayes archives is ok.
I even created a repaire archive and that failed ttf file was again the problem
winzip and winrar passed ok extracting these files.
must be a problem with the.
Hold on a moment WHAT ZIP UTILITY DID YOU USE TO CREATE IT. I JUST EXTRCTED THE FILES USING WINZIP AND THEN WITH WINZIP AND PA I CREATED A NEW ZIP FILES AND IT WORKED EXTRCTION OK SO IT CAN’T BE THE FILES UNLESS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE ZIP BUT WINZIP SAYES OK TO THE ARCHIVE STRANGE.
hAS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH WHAT PROGRAM CREATED THE ZIP. hOWEVER FIXING THE ARCHIVE FAILS IT STILL REPRODUCES THE SAME FAULT.

It’s doesn’t appear to be a problem with DynaZip either because I had no trouble extracting both files with another app that uses the DZ library. It’s possible they’re using differnt versions of the DZ library though.
EDIT: The problem also exists with 9.20.04 (ie. beta 1).

i have tested this fiule with pa 7.02 and it worked

It is an problem with newer DynaZip library, but I dont know what exactly is causing it… It has to be something very specific to the archive.
We are checking it out.
thanks,

how come pa 7.02 is ok extracting it.

I have noticed i get a runtime error trying to extract zip files stateing
End of file or corrupt.Then i get runtime error 216 at 004042EE
I hope this helps fix this or other issues.
-
any chance you can upload your zip file here to the developer can take a look at it
-
this problem is happening more and more when will it be fixed

Does that mean you have experienced the same problem with other archives as well? If so, let us know.
thanks,
-
yes but only with zip archives. i can not upload them here but they work with winzip and winrar
-
… happening more and more … i can not upload them here …
I use zip a lot every day and haven’t seen this error.
Can you identify how your files were created (which tool / options)?
Is there something common about the mix of contents (files/folders) e.g. also have ttf? -

thanks,

i have one more but cxan not send it to you due to its contense
-
Here i found one that causes my error that i can release.
Omniquad AntiSpy DefMain.zip will cause the same error i get with my file.
If you right click and try to extract the archive it will fail to extract the archive fully
If you open the archive then select all contents and drag them to a folder it will error with text "Unexpected end of Zip file. probably the file is corrupt or missing spanned file.
Then you will notice all file in zip are gone then in the archive.
Then close powerarchiver and crash you are there. -
I have a zip archive containing 3 files: an exe, html, and txt. I attempt to extract the exe to a shared folder. It goes through the extraction process, but the file is not visible in the destination folder. If I extract again, it confirms whether I want to overwrite. i.e. the file is somehow there, but not accessible or visible. I have tried extracting to various folders with the same result. In each case I am opening the archive before processing. I tried the same archive with WZ, and it extracted OK.

Check file attributes in the archive? Thats something different in any case…

Omniquad AntiSpy DefMain.zip
:confused:
Is the name correct? I went to http://www.ominquad.com
On their download page AntiSpy file is named TSAntiSpy.zip and extracts OK
Also tried TSPassword.zip - also extracts OK.I cannot see a DefMain.zip there?
-
Yes the software is correct.
http://www.omniquad.com/TotalSecurity/TSAntiSpy.zipDownload their antispyware solution. then install it
Update the signature database then look C:\Program Files\Omniquad Total Security\AntiSpy\Sig\Defmain.zip it is their signature database.
