Extract to temp and clean after.![]() Submitted by silentcon on December 18, 2008 - 7:38pm
What will be the best to use if you are going to extract the files to the temp folder, and clean it after? AutoHotKey, NSIS, .bat ? ( categories: )

I don't know AutoHotKey but I really like NSIS.
All you have to do is enter something like this.
Section DumpToTEMP
SetOutPath "$(TEMP)"
File /r "SomeWeirdFile.exe"
SectionEnd

ExecWait "$TEMP\$YOURAPP"
Delete "$TEMP\$YOURAPP"
The ExecWait makes the NSIS executable waits til after the app finishes for it to delete.
If you want, I'll make you the app. I need some practice with NSIS anyway.
Give me a full detail of what you're looking for.

WinRar Unplugged (portable winrar)
There is one program called WinRar Unplugged. Whats
amazing(?)different about it is it also creates right click menus(what do you call that?), and after use, its all gone. I don't know if it leaves something. Why is it bad to include those right click menus on a portableapp? All apps here like 7zip, supposed to have right click functions like extract here etc. They were removed on the portableapps.I'm not making an app anyway. Didn't find anything yet.
Thanks!
