    • 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

      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.

    • 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?

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

      BigMike

      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.

      7989017c-3cd2-4a99-a1f6-06ce62329dec-image.png

      “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:

    • PA Starter - CPU Overhead

      PA_Fan

      I’m running W10 Pro on an HP i-7 machine with now 32gb of RAM. The system drive is an SSD.

      In the course of sorting out some inconsistencies in a couple of my .pbs jobs, I’ve been paying close attention to the system CPU resource and power consumption of PA Starter, as shown by the various resource management tools. I’ve also been trying to identify why my system seems rather sluggish despite some extensive tuning for speed etc.

      When I have enabled Starter as a start-up programme, to use the PA Queue facility, I see that Starter consistently uses between 10-13% of CPU, with High Power consumption indicated. It runs, consuming this resource, irrespective of what may be happening with PA and any pbs script jobs.

      I can understand a need to use a good chunk of CPU when Starter is actually handling PA jobs, but it shouldn’t sit and consume this amount when it really isn’t doing anything but wait for a job to start and for which it is needed.

      Perhaps I’ve missed a way of lessening Starter’s impact, but in the meantime I’ve adjusted my set-up to running PA without it.

      Suggestions, please.

        @pepg said in Compression Profiles to Default …:

        Is there any way to reset the compression profiles back to install default??

        I would have a solution to this :) I have created 2 registry files with which settings can be reset to “default”, I do not know if I am allowed to share files here? I also assume no liability for damages of any kind :) Even if the script should be “Safe”! If I am given permission, I can upload the file to my google Drive and share here. Is this allowed in this forum? I have also written a “read me” txt file with instructions, to use :)

        With the script you can

        1. set only the “compression profiles” to default
        2. set all settings to default

        It’s pretty simple, but effective and it should be followed the instructions in the “Readme”!
        Otherwise there is the possibility that it does not work!

        Therefore I ask if I may share these files here? they are 100% self-written! :)

            What you can do is click on Options>Set Defaults.
            That will revert PowerArchiver to installation settings and set the Compression Profiles to default. However, it delete all of your manually created compression profiles and reset all other PowerArchiver settings to installation default.

            @Konglomat
            I guess posting the two reg files would work as they could help someone in need. They would have to contain only the [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PowerArchiverInt\Profiles] key information and none other, as it could conflict with other settings, including registration.
            You can send them to me in a private message, we will check them out just to be safe and then can then post them. Thanks for your help!

                Can you help me with more info on customizing that registry key’s values.

                I would like to change the default “PA Default”'s values, so I do not have to tick extra options that I have to do everytime, and I can use the shell extension’s shortcut to create archive, saving my time.

                    But I thought to modify the values, you can simply go to “Settings -> Compression Profiles”.
                    To modify the default options for PA modify “ShellExt: PA Default”.

                    No need to mess with the Registry?
                    Isn’t it the case?

                      Correct, the main compression profile section in Configuration allows for editing the default compression options.
                      I am assuming that @godlydevils would like to edit some of the additional options available for the PA format.

                        Hi @godlydevils

                        I have checked and the additional options for the PA profile are located in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PowerArchiverInt\Profiles
                        As you’ll see there are tons of values there without an easy way to detect which is which.
                        We also discussed additional options being saved in a custom compression profile, so that you will be able to save the additional options along with the default ones. That may help a bit.

                        Also, let me know which options you would like changed and I will also check if I can detect which values those are by comparing the changed values, in Beyond Compare or similar software.

                        Thanks!

                          Hi Mili,

                          I wish to completely customize the default PA profile.

                          so whenever I start archive from shell, i do not have to go to advanced options and customize the plzma(size and entropy model), zstandard(levels & size), ppmd_sh(sizes) options.

                          not having to select zlib level, dictonary size, method optimize strong, compression level extreme.

                          there are various options that I would like to modify for the “PA Default” profile so I do not have to create any new profile.
