As we can see, PA is now coming to 9.25. (9.5 soon!) How was the day when PA was in 1.0 and thereafter? I still remember PA (freeware age) was the archiver installed in my college during my post-secondary study life.
Is there any website providing such information?

Click on HISTORY in the menu bar on the left - goes to January 2004.
For full history, read the WHATSNEW.TXT in the PowerArchiver progam directory - this goes back to September 1998 :eek:

Any difficulty faced when turning into shareware? Any serious protest received?
