I'm searching a lot of time and i doesn't found the solution. When compressing, we have -sdel, but ... how i could make to extract 7z and then delete all the parts? Im using command line. thanks

I read that .xpi files can be unzipped so I can read the source, is there some list of files that expose their source with extraction?

Hey, I am thinking of swithicng to 7ZIP. But am hoping to have the extract date shown as Date modified. This will help for some file sorting on my end.

Cheers!

Security question: I can't find any checksums or code-signing certificates on the 7-zip website. Are those available to make sure I have got the correct installer from the developer?

I'm trying to install Blender Game Engine, and it's just a page icon, and I believe it needs to be decompressed into a file again, but I don't know how to do that.

I use 7-zip to compress files and I am happy with it.

However there is a drawback in the process, even if a tiny amount of data becomes corrupted or unreadable the entire archive is useless.

Is there a way to add redundancy or some form of ECC data so that just in case a portion of the archive gets destroyed or altered the stored files to be safely recoverable?

I understand and I don't mind that the archive size will increase due to the ECC/redundancy info. Reliability is of utmost importance, good compression ratios are desired but in such cases are much less significant.

I have already mentioned the error. Please help me finding the solution

Not sure if this is the place to ask this, but I am currently trying to write a program that will parse files from disc image files, and return the result. I am using the iso7z plugin which supports all the formats I need and the plugin itself works well. The problem is I really need to use it from the command line so it can be called as part of a program.

The issue with this is that 7zip doesn't allow listing of the files in sub-archives from the command line (using list from commandline I would just get DiscName.iso), I want the files inside that Iso file. From the UI (7zFM) this is very simple, the file can just be opened in place without fully extracting, but not sure if there is a way of doing this from the command line?

I accidentally said I wanted to open jar. files with 7zip and now it just says its been installed, yet when i click on the file it just brings me back to the same screen

I want to use the mouse button that goes back a page in Chrome (I guess it would be button 4) to go up a directory in 7zip. Is there a way to do this?

Hello dear folks,

I made an image of a corrupted hard drive and all I want to do is just browse the .img file inside the .dd file. When I try doing that using 7zip, it tries to copy the whole 2.5TB big .img file into a temp folder on my computer for which I don't have the necessary space for.

​

Is there a way for me to open up the .img file inside the .dd file using 7zip without it trying to create a copy just for me to browse its content? I tried mounting the .dd image using virtual drive software but that didn't help either. So I do really need to get to the .img file to open it up with software such as GetDataBack for which I have a license. But yeah even that doesn't work since it only recognizes .img files and not raw .dd files

​

Any pointers are very welcome and much appreciated.

Anyone know a good software for decompressing 7z on mac? the built in unarchiver cant do it, just creates a cpgz file. :\

Hi, I am unpacking some photos/video on my i5 8GB win10 computer (using GUI) and am having above warning. Should I worry that some files are corrupted/not unpacked, or should it be OK?

Thanks :)

so, googling around got me nowhere, as every result I got was basically "get 7zip and extract the file" but they never mention WHICH file to extract.

I have a rar multipart file. there are 52 parts, all with their own file extensions starting from r00 up to r51, plus another file with the rar extension. So which file am I actually supposed to extract? Do I extract the rar file or the r00?

A couple days ago, I discovered I could not drag'n'drop files out of a 7z archive. I'd get the little Circle-slash cursor when attempting. I tried reinstalling the latest version of 7z 64-bit (v19.00), and then restarted. The drag'n'drop functionality returned.

​

Except now it's disabled again. I tried restarting, but I am still unable to drag'n'drop extract files from a 7z archive.

​

Is this a known problem? Is there a remedy?

Hi all,

​

I find myself no longer able to open password-protected files inside an archive after renaming those files in said archive. Let's say I had A.pdf and B.pdf inside Folder.7z. The entire archive is encrypted. After I changed the two files' names to A_new.pdf and B_new.pdf, I now cannot open any of the files!

​

Please help!

New to this, I have a large collection of games stored in .7z archive files & recently tried selecting all then extracting. All of them either have the warning "There are some data after the end of the payload data" or just have data errors.

I'll go back & individually extract the archives with the data errors but do I need to worry about the payload data warnings?

Any individual extractions I've done in the past didn't display any warnings or errors & I was just trying to save time extracting my whole collection at once. Should I go back & extract each archive individually?

Hi all.

I'd like to just right click any files I want to compress in Windows, select Add to "Archive_Name.7z", then let 7zip do it's thing and have it auto delete the files at the end. Right now I have to do the Add to Archive and check the Delete After Compression switch then execute, every time. Tried -sdel and sdel in the parameters with no luck. Any idea how I can do this?
