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 22.00.09 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.

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.
Unsolved PA 19.00.43 Queue re-enabled every Windows reboot
-
Every time I reboot my PC I find that PA 2019 Queue is re-enabled. I like it disabled but with PA Starter still loaded at login time and showing in the tray area.
-
Still same in .44
-
couldnt reproduce this one unfortunately, could you please send us your settings to support and we will check with those. Could be a setting that causes it.
thanks!
-
Maybe it’s not really being re-enabled but when I go to ‘Options’ / ‘Configuration’ / ‘Queue’ in PA I find ‘Enable PowerArchiver 2019 Queue’ is ticked again.
-
thanks @Brian-Gregory
I was finally able to reproduce it. If the “Start PA starter” checkmark is left On after unchecking queue, queue will enable after restart.
If unckecking Start PA Starter checkmark, Queue won’t reenable.

Yes. Exactly as I explained in the first message.

Still does it on my laptop with 19.00.46.

you guys are overthinking it :)
This option is always on when PA Starter is running, it does not mean that queue is used, just that it could be used if you chose to do so.
Its is useful because it lets you start PA Starter easily from config when you click on it first time. -
@spwolf What’s so damn hard about labelling the tick boxes correctly?
You refused to fix this before with earlier version.
Also if the tick box labelled ‘Enable PowerArchiver 2019 queue’ actually controls the PAStarter icon then what on earth does the tick box labelled ‘Start PowerArchiver 2019 Starter when my computer starts’ do???
I think you’ve got so used to the totally screwed up illogical way this works that you’ve actually come to believe that it makes sense!!

Hello? Are there any intelligent lifeforms out there?

Maybe… Enable PA 2019 Queue starts Starter when you check it (it asks for it)… but it will not start Starter at computer restart unless you check Start… box.
Reason for this is for people not have to look for starter in Program Files folder when they want to see what is it.
