sorry, please read the bold red text above ("EDIT:..."). When I restart TC the settings are gone no matter which method (1-3) I use
Do you start "rundll32 multiarc.wcx, Settings" from TC or not? If you start it from TC (or from program started from TC), it has access to %COMMANDER_PATH% and %COMMANDER_INI% variables. If not - theese variables are undefined. So it may be a reason why MA can't find wincmd.ini.
No, I ran the rundll32 command from Windows Start menu. So I tried the command within TC, but that yields the same results as in methods 1) + 2) above (MA forgets path).

I did that! See:

I did that, too:

EDIT: Aaaaah, I was laughing too soon It is true that with method 3) the wincmd.ini path is remembered - as opposed to methods 1) + 2), BUT when I close and restart TC, the wincmd.ini path is forgotten again! So even this does not work.
Under Windows 7 x64 I could not extract or view contents of cab files using MultiArc and mscab.exe v0.63 (Error Level 2 No File List).
I played arround with "L" in List= and replacing it with "list" works. The difference is, that paths and files are displayed first, than unpacked size, date, time and attributes.
Following [CAB] sequence in multiarc.ini works fine for me now:
If you're using TC8x64, you can try 64-bit Multiarc build. But be careful, it may be unstable!
(I don't know in which state latest sources are, I fixed some errors but there may be another ones)
thank you very much for this contribution which finally allowed me to switch to the 64-bit edition of TC. The plugin works stable and without any issues for me so far.

Did you create the 64-bit port? In a German thread, a user writes that files from the firefox settings folder whow up in TC at random, and it stopped after he removed the 64-bit multi-arc plugin. Here is the thread with Google translate: Solved: file list contains files zombie when TC backg
Do you use any functions to monitor the file system? This sounds quite improbable to me...
I only recompiled public Multiarc sources (with some changes required for 64-bit module). Here are the sources. I don't think that 64-bit multiarc may behave in other way than 32-bit one...
