  1. Seeking Utility or Setup - Extract Archive On Open, Then Delete


    Hi all,

    I'm looking for a streamlined way of handling downloaded ZIP files (and other archives). I use Chrome as my primary browser if there's an extension that does this.

    I primarily use 7-Zip, but I do own a WinRAR license.

    I want archives to automatically unpack when opened, then (optionally) art source archive gets moved to the Recycle Bin. One click.

    I'm no OS X guy (but I have nothing against it), but I really like this behavior that I believe is the normal handling. You do have to "launch" the archive, but in Chrome, this could be accomplished by enabling the Open Files of This Type option.

    :)

    unzip files in windows 10

    Hi Jaime, the instruction:

    Right click a zip file, choose 'Extract All...' is the standard way to unzip an archive in Windows 10

    However, there is a lot of archiving software out there and Windows cannot handle a lot of the non-standard zip files

    The best free utility for extracting archive files is Universal Unextractor, it does not install a program, it just adds functionality to the right click context menu in File Explroer . ..

    Universal Extractor | LegRoom.net

    Install that software, then right click a zip file and choose 'Extract Here' or 'Extrac to Sub-folder'

    If that utility does not work, the zip file is probably corrupt
