Useless,
Yes, there is a way, you should edit your wincmd.ini:

Code: Select all

[Packer]
UnZIPSeparateSubdirs=-2

ghisler,
This nice INI option isn't mentioned in help.

pls make "unpack eath archive to a separate subdir" memorable after TC restart

This option already exist.
Under [Packer] section
From TC help:

UnZIPSeparateSubdirs=-1 Saves the state of the option "Unpack each archive to separate subdir":
0: Option disabled, changes will be remembered
1: Option enabled, changes will be remembered
-1: Option disabled, changes will NOT be remembered (default)
-2: Option enabled, changes will NOT be remembered
-3: Like -2, but only when more than one archive is selected

Dear Mr. Ghisler,

Please add the variable UnpackToSubdir=1 to the [Packer] section of wincmd.ini.

After executing the cm_UnpackFiles command (Alt+F6), a window with checkboxes appears:

Unpack path names if stored with files
Overwrite existing files
Unpack each archive to a separate subdir (name of the archive)

The first two correspond to the following in wincmd.ini:
[Packer]
ExtractPathInZIP=1
UnZIPOverwrite=0
but for the third option, the setting is not saved anywhere.

Several times a day, I unpack several archives to a RamDisk and repack them after making changes. I have to keep setting the third variable.

Thank you very much.

Suggestion:
Add a reference to UnZIPSeparateSubdirs to the help page "Dialog box: Unpack".
