Hi just wondered are there any plans to include SIT (Stuffit) archives or is this format copyrighted or otherwise ?

I had some files e-mailed today from a MAC and it would have been handy.

Cheers

I have the latest AVG updates, and can't use 7-zip due to a false positive trojan horse.

So, what should I do?

I know that it is possible to create a portable, "stand-alone" version of a program using Universal Extractor and WinRAR. A tutorial on how to do that can be found at:
http://www.ehow.com/how_4742635_application-portable.html

I was wondering if it were possible to complete that same task using 7-Zip. I do not know if there are specific parameters that must be used or if it is not possible at all. I would much rather create a portable program as shown in the tutorial I linked above but use 7-Zip in place of WinRAR, as I am more comfortable with that program and I prefer it.

Unlike Firefox, the root directory does not update when moved to a different computer when you assign Notepad++ Portable as 7-Zip Portable's editor, could this be looked into or is there another way to get Notepad++ Portable to work with 7-Zip Portable?

Hello everybody,

I often have to create splitted archives which has to be compatible to Winzip. So in the past I used Winzip to create these archives. But I would like to switch to 7-Zip when creating these archives. The porblem is, when I create a splitted archive with Winzip I get these Files, e.g:
File.zip
File.z01
File.z02

When I create a splitted archive with 7-zip I get these Files:
File.zip.001
File.zip.002
File.zip.003

Which I can not open with Winzip. Does anyone have an idea how I can solve this problem?

Hello,

7-zip has on its own Website an entry, that it is completly free to use also in a commercial way. Is this also valid for 7-Zip Portable? I tried to find something about the licence agreements, but did not find them.

Best Regards,
Klaus.

Hey,

I'm working on a simple script to let me drop various archive files on to a small GUI to automatically decompress the archive and -if the decompression was successful- delete the original archive. Since I would like my script to be portable I've been trying to use 7za.exe, the help file explains:

"7za.exe (a = alone) is a standalone version of 7-Zip. 7za.exe supports only 7z, cab, zip, gzip, bzip2, Z and tar formats"

This is what my recent scan found. My ClamWinPortable was suposed infected with a Trojan Agent. I doubt it. Someone has had the same behaviour recently? What could we do?

Sincerily

Is there a way to check or scan, in a batch mode, if zips might be accessible or corrupt ?.
Rather than trying to open one by one.
