    Windows 11 Shell Extension crash
    W
    Copied the Take Command shortcut, changed Target to be wt.exe -p “Take Command” and saved it. Right-clicked to get to properties and Explorer crashed. (wt.exe is the Microsoft Terminal program, which I have installed from the Microsoft Store.) The Target path had changed to: C:\Users{username}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\wt.exe -p “Take Command” Created a new shortcut in a Start Menu folder and set the command line to the same, and it crashed the same. Created a new shortcut and set the command line to mspaint.exe (also a Windows Store app) and Explorer crashed on right-click on the shortcut. It appears PowerArchiver shell extensions doesn’t handle Windows Store apps in shortcuts properly. Perhaps it needs better defensive coding around checking the Target of shortcuts, or just ignoring shortcuts altogether. Running PA 22.00.11 on Windows 11 24H2 Build 26100.6584

    Was Power Archiver affected by the WinRAR/.rar vulnerability discovered by ESET researchers recently? Not sure if PA is using their libraries for extraction.

    Ultimate zip was made by powerarchiver
    D
    From google search AI Overview Yes, that’s correct. UltimateZip was indeed a product of the same company that developed PowerArchiver, and it was essentially a rebranded version of PowerArchiver. It was discontinued and replaced by PowerArchiver.

    News/Update on PowerArchiver/Connexion in 2024
    TheAndyMacT
    Hi everyone, some good news about PowerArchiver… I’ve managed to get in touch with the original developer of PowerArchiver, Ivan Petrovic, and he has confirmed that the product is not dead or abandoned, in fact it is still very much alive! There has been a hiatus over the past months for various reasons, but that we should expect to see stuff coming through in the coming months (hopefully the next 2 months).

    Zip extraction from windows 11 by windows
    D
    Basically I used powerarchiver context menus to zip up a folder then i used windows 11 own built in zip extractor via the context menu to extract all and this is where it throw up a fault. , I’m using windows 11 . The file that was a problem in the zip that windows 11 could not extract was iva “babe” cotton.jpg I know it has non standard quotes in it. However I had winrar on the computer and tried the exact same method with their context menu compress to zip and then I extracted the file with windows own extract all context menu and it had no problems. This indicates that powerarchiver is doing something different with iva “babe” cotton.jpg compressing to zip. Then I changed iva “babe” cotton.jpg to iva babe cotton.jpg and compressed it with powerarchiver and then tried it with windows 11 extract all and had no problems. It looks like powerarchiver is doing something to that one file that has quotes in it. Please note that powerarchiver extracted both zip files with no problems, only windows built in zip extraction had the fault. Reason I’m letting people know in case they send zip files with special characters in files names to people who do not have powerarchiver. When will a fix be implemented?

    PA2023 22.00.09 trying to delete a directory from a tar file.
    Brian GregoryB
    I had a large .tar file (a backed up WSL) and I want to delete a few directories and their contents from it using PA2023. PA just destroys the whole archive as soon as I try to delete a directory, leaving it in a state where PA2023 won’t even open it any more. I tried several times and also tried compressing it to .tar.xz instead - same result. This should either actually work, or it should say operation not supported and do nothing.

        @mili indeed hmmm… , uninstalled 91 and installed 90 but same problem : no NEW shell for folder creation. Now back on 91. Forget this problem, I will use external explorers to create new folders/subs.

            @pirrbe Ac is completely different.

            can you post full picture of where you dont get new, so we see full PA window? maybe we will get the idea.

            i noticed how in root of my pc and Libraries folders, you cant create new folder, but thats correct behaviour, works everywhere else on my x86 win10 tablet

              @spwolf Indeed, if I point an empty space in PA explorer, I have identical shells as skypx and you. But the problem in PA explorer is when you point on an existing folder and want to create a sub-folder… there PA explorer shell misses the ‘NEW’ function.
              Creation of a new folder through PA explorer : no problem

              Maybe some confusion of my first post remark ‘folder/subfolder’… problem is only related to creation of subfolders trough PA explorer :-(

                @pirrbe I get exactly the same in Windows Explorer too… there is no New> in Windows Explorer either, at least on my own version of Win10.

                  you can get the New Folder option when clicking on an empty space in explorer window. If your folder/subfolder is full of files, move all the way down to the bottom and click the empty space under the last file and the New Folder option will be available

                    @mili Hi Mili, it’s Monday say maybe you got a ‘hard late outdoor’ weekend and didn’t read well my above post with the two screenshots with BOLD titles

                    Creation of a new folder through PA explorer : no problem
                    Creation of a subfolder through PA explorer : missing NEW

                    Resume : in PA Explorer no problems to create a new folder through shell ‘NEW’ command, but select an existing folder and try then to create a new sub. IMPOSSIBLE : suddenly the NEW shell command is missing in PA Explorer !!!

                      in the screenshot I posted with the New Folder option available, isn’t it occurring in a subfolder, giving me an option to create another new folder/subfolder?

                            what Mili is saying is that you can enter folder and click on empty space to get new option.

                            As I mentioned before, when I select folder in Windows Explorer, I do NOT get the New option either. Maybe some other software is adding New option for you?

I wonder what’s the situation of other users. I never experienced that problem, even after the recent latest upgrade of MS Win10. :-(. Other fact : an old bug is back concerning config setting fields. But is this now related to this mismatch stuff of win10<>PA or resurrection in PA after new release. I still report them ?

                                I can create them if I click on empty space and then new.

                                If I right click on folder, there is no New option in both Windows Explorer and PA. Thats on both of my Win10 computers. Maybe someone else can chime on their own setups.

                                  So I checked PA 91 explorer and Win 10 64 bit file manager and don’t have an option to create a sub-folder while right clicking on an existing folder. I actually can’t remember creating a folder that way.
