winrar 3.40

**jessc** · September 24, 2004

does anyone know if there is a flag (as in /s after the winrar.exe) to stop it putting winrar in the start menu?

Well, the shell-extensions were a good part about winrar, so I don't know why you'd want to do that....

But there's no switch for that, and the alternative is here:

RD /S /Q %UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\WinRAR

Put that line in your batch-file, and it will delete the winrar group in StartMenu>>Programs.

Hoping this helps...

RD /S /Q %UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\WinRAR

That's what I use. Just add quotes.

you should rather consider moving the winrar group under the accessiories subsection...

That's what I do as well (but to another group as if I move every other odd app to accessories, it gets filled way fast).

I also unassociate .jar files (so ProjectX runs instead of open with WinRAR...)
