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.
Please make PA betaversions public
-
Please make the PA alpha and beta versions public. like it is by WinRAR. So more people can test betaversion of PA
-
yes its a good idea! So people can say whats not so good in the version (Wishlist)!
-
Where were you guys? The beta versions were made open to everyone and they asked for user feedback.
-
currently I don’t see any beta versions :(
-
thats cuz there are no beta versions released
-
so how about alpha versions :rolleyes: :D
-
Well, my guesses would be similar to what happened before:
“Public” Alpha Testing is only for major changes so next Alpha testing for PA 10 (maybe 9.5?) - as with change from 8.8 to 9.0
Beta’s have released for testing via these forums - maybe for intermediate versions e.g. 9.1 / 9.2 etc? This also happened for 9.0 a few weeks before the forums were reworked.
Basically, when there has been a new feature/changed feature that needs more than normal Q.A. testing.
In other words “Be patient”, let’s enjoy what we have and let 9.0 settle down first.
-
TBGBe is correct. They just finished a major new version which under went tons of alpha testing and several weeks of beta testing. I think the programmers should get at least week off for a short vacation before they have to start the next release. :D
-
LOL! Yes they must have it cuz when they no have a vacation, the next version will be not good… :D
I understand that such major changes dont appear every day…lets wait patiently!
But i would like to get the german 2004 version (cuz im from Germany)!!
-
Then offer to help with it in the translation forum :grin:
-
thX i done it! :D :D

heh yes. Alpha test has been done for more than 3 months on 9.0, with 3 weeks of completly public beta testing, via forums/update/web site.
Basically, as soon as we add major features to next major version of PA, alpha testing starts and alpha testers are able to witness great change from ugly duckling to the beautiful new release…. Then when we finish up with everything, and everything is ready for final release - we do extra few weeks of beta testing.
As you all know, you are able to sign up to become alpha testers so you will be able to do some, once we start doing alpha testing.

spwolf : witness great change from ugly duckling to the beautiful new release
You think PA 9.00 is an ugly duckling :eek:
Better get Ivan working overtime then :p

he already is :-)
My refference was actually to first alpha releases which were far from done, and didnt look anywhere as nice as PA 9.
