BETA: PowerArchiver 2023 - 22.10.02

[RJWaring]

Guys, Please try and understand that Windows XP and Vista are completely different OS systems.

PowerArchiver’s development team try their best to ensure each release is compatible and contains the most updated Archive list as possible.

As stated by Spwolf this is now a known issue and they are trying the best to resolve the issue for the next release.

I think what some users forget is PowerArchiver offers the ability to contact them direct via these forums, this is something Winzip, winrar, ultraiso don’t offer and if a user doesnt receive feedback asap they think nothing is being done this is not true.

It just means work is still being done and tested to ensure when complete it would not cause further issues.

also compared to other archive utilities PA offers far more updates/fixes and patches than their competitors and they actually listen to their users.

Hi Sir Richard,

please notice that this problem is reported from at least 12-05-2006 (beginning of this thread) and it’s the first time I hear that it’s a known problem. Previous answers where “iso format have changed”… 18 months, this is not really “ASAP”… I like PA, and it’s pitty for me that I have to change it…

[RJWaring]

Well, I hope that PA Fix it on the next major version which I am sure they will. I can understand your and other users disapointment esspecially when we are all quite loyal to the program. But like everything else sometimes a software vendor just doesnt have the features or functionality that you require specifically. That doesnt mean they never will.

I used Winzip all the time untill powerarchiver 2006 arrived since then i need nothing else. I admit i dont use ISO files allot “very rarely” so this problem doesnt effect me as much but that doesnt mean 5 weeks down the line it wont.

keep checking this thread and the new updates and hopefully soon PA will have the fix needed for you to revert back.

I can tell you what I know. I cant tell you it will be fixed tomorrow, because it wont.

If ISO support under Vista is crucial, then right now PA is not the tool for you. I can only apologize but that wont make fix come any sooner. I hope all the other features make it up for you. ISO support was always an added benefit for PA, it is not our main feature (which is why tools like WinIso and others exist).

thanks,

[spwolf]

p.s. we do appreciate when people complain, because thats how we know that those features matter to them. We will tripple check ISO feature again to make sure there is nothing we can do ASAP (and before PA 2008).

[RJWaring]

another example of the speedy reponse we get from PA’s developers. :o)

[spwolf]

so, there will be some happy users tomorrow I think

:-).

[spwolf]

And here we go:
http://www.powerarchiver.com/test/release10/powarc1021a10.exe

This should fix this issue. Please confirm.

thank you!

if you went back to xp and no problems with thoses iso’s but in vista you have then i suspect that its a fault of vista and a conflict with pa’s iso function. As stated before winiso is deigned to work with all types of iso standard and non standard. Pa is not at fault here it is vista and having been a developer of microsoft products i can assure you that pa proably aren’t getting enough advice from microsoft on vista to ensure they can fix all the bugs straigh away, like some other companies are. Please be patient and it will be fixed.

This versions shows great improvements! Thx very much! something curious: when you drag and drop one file, it is created in a sub-folder with subfolder same name as a file… but the extracted file seems correct ! You are on the right way !

[spwolf]

are you sure that file didnt have path like that? I tested it here, seems to work fine?

thanks,

[Itsmetoo9]

Hi, I tried diffent situations, and if my iso file contain this files:
\test1.txt
\subdir1\test2.txt
\subdir2\test3.txt

after extraction, the result will be
D:_PAxxx\test1.txt
D:\subdir1\test2.txt
D:\subdir2\test3.txt

where xxx is a random number.

This occurs when I use the drag and drop of the files, but no problem if I use the extract command (icon), and select the same destination for selected files

Thx for your help

[spwolf]

it seems to be an issue with drag and drop in classic view… thanks!

[spwolf]

should be fixed, please re-download rc2 and check it out.

thanks!

[Itsmetoo9]

Well done! It is fixed in ver 10.21.17

[spwolf]

thanks, closing thread…
