7-zip switches ?

[Lazz]

I couldn't find any silent switches for 7-zip.exe v313 in the forum to use in RunOnceEx.cmd.

Any one got it ?

Well, this seems to work for 7-zip package itself, and other SFXes created by it as well:

-y /q /r:n

There's the "-o" argument as well, to specify where you want it extracted/installed, for example

-y /q /r:n -o%SYSTEMDRIVE%\install\Applications

[Lazz]

Thanks a lot.

7-zip never have a switch begins with /.

if you need detail switch for 7zip, make a console mode sfx archive, anySFX.exe -? will show you.

These commands don't seem to work for me on 7-Zip 4.10 Beta. It keeps saying Command line option syntax error.

Odd, -y /q /r:n is working just fine here... Just tested it

Yea I don't know what's wrong. Doesn't matter anymore because I just made a custom install using inno setup anyway and everything is ok.

i would like 2 get new icons for 7zip, but everytime i try 2 res hack the .exe it will only allow u 2 use like 4bit icons, so they are ugly, wish this could be implemented into someones custom installer

@MCT

What resource hacker did you use to try using on 7-zip? Where are the icons you are trying to use? Maybe I can try hacking the exe.

[MCT]

i used PE Explorer (Resource Tuner) i think (i tried this awhile ago)

[1chaoticadult]

Oh ok. Let me try some things and let you know what happens.
