Hi,

I redused my OfficeXP with 7-zip to 177mb! Now I have an exe-file, but I need a switch that this exe-file know, where the files should be extracted!

I want to use this file for my unattended winxp-cd! It should be extracted to %systemdrive%\install\

Can someone help me, please?

I was gonna do the same thing but from the 7zip help file there is no silent install switch for self extracting archives, only the inital 7zip installer

-------

Edit:

I was just looking throught the switch stuff again in the help file, I think it's -y just like the installer

For more info, Look in the help file, > commandline > swithes > -sfx

nevermind didn't work

Hi flattspott.

thanks for your help!

I'll do it with winrar now!

-y /q /r:n will extract a 7zip self extractor

i tried that and it didn't work for the sfx files. only the initial 7zip installer

I have 12 different 7zip sfx's I use in my unattended. It works for all of them

eg: start "" /wait %systemdrive%\CDWrite.exe -y /q /r:n
