Re: Explorer.exe Crash on right click
This appears to be happening again with the Power Archiver 2022 shell extensions.
When I have Use Explorer Shell Extensions enabled in Power Archiver Configuration and right-click on c:\Users\username\Start Menu, (hidden Junction file), File Explorer crashes.
I have version 21.00.15 (03/2022) 64-bit installed in Windows 10 Version 21H2 (Build 19044.1826).

Powerarchiver 2022
Right-click and select Encrypt on a folder does not work.
Although it says it encrypts, there is no encrypted file in the destination folder. -
The online update feature within the program suggests there is a later version than the ‘.17’ available on the web site. But clicking either download or update just reinstalls version .17.
Either there isn’t an update OR
the “download” and 'update" links should be repaired. -

Hi,
When you click on the Buy Now link, you come across four tabs - Home or Work, Enterprise Unlimited, Educational Discount, & Gift Discount.
What is the difference between a licence purchased via Gift Discount and a Home/Work licence?
Also, how can I renew the PowerArchiver Select plan a year after the purchase? Will it remind me automatically?
Best,

I’m running PA 21.00.17 64-bit on a 64-bit i7 desktop with W10 Pro, latest version. This 32gb of installed RAM.
As I use the PA pbs system for a number of scheduled archiving operations throughout the day, PA Starter is set to load and run at system startup.
In the course of trying to identify some causes of slowness and bottlenecks in other processes, I notice that PA Starter (PAS) always runs at between 11% and 15% of CPU (see screenshot), usually at about 12-13%. This is by far the highest demanding process on the system, as shown by Task Manager. In Performance Monitor, PAS Average CPU is 8.32, with every other process at less that 1 i.e. in decimal places only.
Task Manager also shows PAS Power Usage as “Very High”, and is the only process shown thus.
I have looked again at the information about PAS at https://wiki.powerarchiver.com/en:help:details:powerarchiver_starter, which was last modified in 2016. The article states a low memory usage for PAS of 784k, which is fair enough, but it is the large CPU overhead which is of concern.
It is of course possible to change the PAS priority, but this has no effect on CPU overhead.
However, is it possible to change PAS, which is required only at intervals to initiate PA scheduled tasks, from consuming so much system resource for every moment of the day?

I’m experiencing very slow extraction speed of multipart RAR files. For the first part the extraction is super fast but when PA reaches the part2.rar the extraction from there on gets super slow. PA needed for a 6,3 GB multipart archive 30 minutes to extract. I tested then with another program and it just took 70 seconds. I had this slow extraction speed with PA for quite a long time and I always thought that is maybe because of a high compression rate that the extraction would take longer. But it seems that only PA gets that slow.
I have lots of multipart archives that are 10+ GB and with PA it would be really time consuming. Is there any solution to this?

Hi. The “Move” Action seems to be Not Working when used in the Tool – Batch Archive.
Using the Options – Configuration – Compression Profiles ---- I created a Profile with the Action of Move. Also set were Zip, and Method Deflate.
When I use the Tool - Batch Archive – It appears to me that the Action Move does not Move the compressed files (basically add to zip, and delete the added file from original location on the same disk). Zip file(s) are created and look ok.
Typically I on the Batch Archive process – I have selected options to use a Profile with the Move Action.
File’s Current Folder Group files from same folder into same archive Add subfolders to separate archivesMy PowerArchiver version is 21.00.17 .
Can you reproduce ? – Or do you need additional details or information?

Hello,
PowerArchiver Command Line 7 support file greater than 2 Go ?
Thanks
-
i just registered my own copy and i need some help to set it…
if i set the ‘configuration>shell extension>open folder after extracting’ checkbox, after decompress an archive is opened the file manager on that folder but… if somebody is using a different file manager how to open XYplorer or Directory Opus for example and NOT the MS file manager?
consider this as a feature request also if not available within the 2022 version

I am looking for a way to stop the UAC elevation prompt when running Powerarchiver. In an old post about PA 2019, someone asked this and got a response to uncheck “all users” at the prompt but I am not seeing where one can do this. It definitely seems like the way to go though as if I click on “More Details” at the prompt I see that it is trying to run “_pautil.exe /paassociate /allusers /my(long binary string)”. Can you let me know? Thanks.
PS I tried renaming _pautil.exe and this worked, but I don’t know what the consequence of doing this may be so I would like to do this properly, thanks.

Just a question is Ashampoo zip pro 4 built by Powerrachiver as it is very similar and uses the pae encryption.

There would be many of us with Intel Processors.
and they have their own optimized zlib algorithm, which can result in more efficiency if used combined with their hardware processor.
Reference:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/zlib-compression-whitepaper-copy.pdfCan we get the same Functionality Under Hardware Acceleration Feature?
Zlib is not the only feature that intel has included with their processor, there’s many, which if combined can result in efficient and better compression ratios.

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! -

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 … ;)

We are working on it - I hope this month we shall have patch for Win XP x64.

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!
