Managing Archives and Viewing Properties

Archive Management

You can use the “Move Archive…”, “Copy Archive…”, “Rename Archive…”, and “Delete Archive…” entries under the “File> File” menu to manage an archive.

  • “Move Archive… ” - moves currently opened archive to another folder or disk.

  • “Copy Archive… ” - copies currently opened archive to another folder or disk.

  • “Rename Archive… ” - renames currently opened archive's name but not its extension.

  • “Delete Archive… ” - deletes currently opened archive.

Viewing Archive Properties

General Information

The “Properties” menu entry in the PowerArchiver “File” menu displays a dialog box with the archive format, full file name, actual archive size (in bytes), number of files in the archive, average compression ratio, and the date and time the archive was last modified. In addition, version information used to create and needed to extract the archive is displayed, as well as encryption status.

Please Note

Not all of the information is available for every archive type.

Printing a List of Files

Printing File Listing to a File

To print a list of files in an archive to a text or HTML file, select “Print File Listing … to TXT (or HTML) document” from the PowerArchiver “File> Print File Listing” menu.

The columns shown in the PowerArchiver window will be printed using the current sort order.

Printing File Listing to a Printer

In case you want to print a list of files in the archive to your printer, simply select “Print File Listing> to HTML document”. PowerArchiver will create an HTML file and automatically open it in your default browser. You can then use the standard print function in your browser to print the file list.
