Why
So I just found this comment on r/piracy that talks about an app that extracts an archive when you double click it.
But the app since have been switched on ads and not completely free anymore.
Knowing 7zip can extract to folder with a context menu, I decided to make a small app that calls that function on double click.
Enjoy.
How
- A Simple python script calls 7-zip gui with extract to folder action.
- That python script gets compiled and turned into a windows executable with pyinstaller.
- InnoSetup makes a installer that copies 7-Zip and python executable to a folder.
- It will also make the file associations for most common archive formats to dextractor.
