durex Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 Anyone know how (if its even possible) to add the extract context menu options to file types that arent included in WinRars preferences?For example, sometimes I DL packages that starts with <filename>.001. But the only context menu I get is 'Add to archive...' and not 'Extract to here' like I do with rar and zips. The only way I can extract these files is by opening winrar and doing it manually.Thanks!

prathapml Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 You can try this:Install winrar first (important), and then run the following from a batch-file:assoc .001=WinRARassoc .002=WinRARassoc .any=WinRARThese are just examples, of course. Please tell whether it worked or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunil Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 hmm that does not seem to work, it still only gives the add to ... options, however when you double click it, it opens in winrar..Sunil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Well, that takes the task half-way across. After that, you can use "Extract To" from winrar's interface.But yes, if there's any other simple solutions, I'd like to know too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
