Will PA support windows xp 64bit?
some other compression utility that I wont name here dont as the shell extention doesnt work right now
-
-
thats not a good thread to look at and I dont want to bring it up by responding there. Basically we have to re-write shell extensions in 64bit and then they should work. When we get time, we will check it out and see if it works.
Problem is that Win64 does not support 32bit shell extensions, and hence they wont/dont work…
-
ok thanks for the quick answer

That means, x64 support is far away? You gave the same answer for sfx support, but in the last four years you didn’t find time to update the sfx support. It seems that the only way to get x64 support is to use another archiver.

Interesting, we certainly did update PowerArchiver over the years, did we not? :-). Of course, feel free to use any software you wish to use. As I said, we will check it out once we have time (since 9.5 is priority), if we can get it to work, great.

Yes, of course you did. But some users are still waiting for self-decrypting .pae files.
But I think it’s not only done with rewriting the shell extension. Even a 64bit shell extension has to check if the right-clicked file is an archive. So you have also to move your archiver libraries to 64bit too.

Could you make 1 shell extension work in x64. It only has to work in the alphas. It doesn’t have to be in the final. I would like The extract to folder (name)
Is very annoying to have to work from with in main window to extract….
Thanx…

Hi!
I hope 64 bit support will be available for PowerArchiver too soon.
I understand that it involves some work to convert it, but I think you guys will make more and more people very happy with this. A very good way to go ahead of the competition!
Besides converting the whole application to something 64 bit, I think it is possible to use the simple context menu options really simple with the use of command line switches. I know some people fixed it for WinRAR as you can see in this forum: http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=311399&pid=585832076&st=0.
Could you please instruct us Windows XP x64 people how to do such thing for PowerArchiver?
Thanks in advance!

The shell extension / context menu items of PowerArchiver are accessible from the 32-bits version of Windows Explorer by using the workaround described on http://www.extended64.com/blogs/bhpaddock/archive/2005/05/22/539.aspx.
I do not know the exact implications from this, but it is usefull for tools like PowerArchiver, TortoiseCVS and others.

Hopefully we will check it out soon enough so we can see if it is possible for it to work properly under 64bit…
thanks for the tip.

Any plans already to release a version with support for Windows XP 64-bit?
There is a lot of talking about it on PlanetAMD. I am sure you win some new customers if
64 bit support is implemented. WinZip doesn’t got it yet (but something called Squeez does). I only don’t want all that other stuff, I want Powerarchiver!

great to hear

Good to hear because some competitors are starting to offer x64 Shell Ext. support.
By the way, as I’m new to the forum I must say this: PA 9.x rocks …

Any flash news on progress?
-
We are working on it - I hope this month we shall have patch for Win XP x64.

It should be available for testing quite soon.

You have english Windows X64, build … And you are running AMD…?

etc, etc… And after installation, you do not get any shell extensions for PA? (quick check if they are on in the config?).
- I’m not getting any shell ext at all. I tried turning them on and off. Also in combination with the shell ext from winrar.
Do you want me to check some reg keys ?
Guido
edit: typo
-
ok, so you WinXp x64 users - make sure PA installs under Program Files and not Program Files (x86). Windows will not let shell extensions to run from x86 folder!
This is only valid for people who had already installed PA on the computer so PA’s installation will look at last installation folder. New installations will go into “64bit” Program files by default.
thanks!
