Change main PowerArchive icon colors

I would like to see the main PowerArchiver icon colors to get changed slightly. Problem is that in Windows XP explorer uses the same yellow color as PowerArchiver. I can hardly see the difference between the taskbar buttons for a PowerArchiver window and a Windows Explorer window. Here’s a screenshot:

Problem is worse on TFT display. The vertical viewing range is limited so details fade out a bit. I think more users have problems with it.

I’m not sure truncating (especially the end of the name ) is a good idea. For extracting - if the file is already selected/highlighted in the explorer window do we actually need the name in PA context menu at all? However, the same “problem” exists when long filenames / foldernames are to be compressed (and is worse if compress & encrypt is activated). Now truncating the name would have to ensure we do not lose the file suffix which is the only indication of compression method (zip, cab etc.) Perhaps use placeholder type text “extract to [filename as subfolder]” “compress to [filename].zip” If is to be a length setting, then make it a configuration option so user specifies the maximum size before changing ??

@Dipso: Hi, i just noticed that when i use the shell extention item “extract here” on an archive, i don’t get the progressbar in the taskbar on windows7. I love this new feature, and i use the shell extract function a lot to extract archived movies etc, and the visual cue to let me know when i’m done extracting is realy neat. I hope this can get fixed soon. Regards, Dipso. I am glad you reported this as this bugs me as well

I cant see why not, even if Xobni doesnt all the program is is a Plugin to Outlook just like POAP. ConeXware could create a basic webapp with Xobni giving stats on email attachments size & what it could be with PowerArchiver Outlook Plugin then via xobni download a special free version with limits.

Please consider moving the “Action” field to the main Add dialogue box. Since this field retains its settings from the last archive created it has the potential to cause problems. For example, if the last archive created used the move action instead of add you could potentially delete important files the next time you create a zip. Thanks, Jerry S

@klumy: If I activate the Windows Explorer contextmenu on a free space, I have a contextmenu to create "New Diretories, Sort Symbols…) I would also like this contextmenu in PA. that’d be great! I especially miss an option to create directories in Explorer View there’s a proggie, NewFolderHere, which will allow you to do that…as long as you click to a file in PA explorer view (not on the blank space). the proggie adds a voice to win context menu: “new folder here”…and of course creates the folder, where you like!

Hello, Is it possible to add in future versions an options to just use one icon for all archives? Without the file format text on it? I don’t need to see the extension on the icon (I’m sure I can’t be the only one), if I do I can just get windows to always display file type extensions or sort the explorer view by file type. You could have an option for to enable switching between one icon or many (one for each file type, as now) either in settings or maybe in some sort of first run wizard.

PA, Is it possible you can setup PA so it has the same top right buttons on the menu bar as those in vista within your Main application. As attached, I have just copied and pasted over the simple crosses which PA Currently has!

Hi Guys, Can you please make it possible for users to move “Compress To Formats” into the “Compress With Options Item” Thus When the user right clicks they can access to the “Compress To…” Sub Menu then they can see the “Compress To Options” and their additional Compress To formats. It would also be a fantastic ability for users to create their own Sub Menus within “PowerArchiver” shell extention. ie; I would love to have the ability to create a new shell under PowerArchiver for both Compression & Extraction called “Security” within that I would have Decrypt Options… Encrypt Options… Compress & Encrypt FTP Options… ie contains ssl to a secure server. These unique shell menus could be customized towards any user’s or administrators needs then saved and rolled out throughout. ie ConeXware could have “PowerArchiver 2011” -> “ConeXware Backup” -> Add to backup Script, FTP it… etc etc
