"don't extract pathnames" in shell extraction doesn't work
-
The option “don’t exract pathnames” in the “extract to…” dialouge via shell doesn’t work.
When I have an archive that has stored pathnames in it and I want to extract the archive without pathnames PA still extract the archive with pathnames.It happens with .rar and cab. files. Zip and .7zip files extract correctly.
When I extract via main PA and check the option “don’t extract pathnames” then it works for .rar and .cab files but doesn’t via shell.
-
I have just noticed that when I extract via main PA with this option that PA extracts the files without pathname but he creates an empty folder with the name of the folders that are in the archive.

thanks!

Please try with final pre-release version:
http://www.powerarchiver.com/test/release10/powarc1100rc5.exeAnd let us know if this has been improved right away.
thanks!

In main PA he now doesn’t create empty folders.
But via shell it’s the same problem as before. It only doesn’t work for .cab and .rar files.
-
did you restart your computer for new shell extensions to be installed? thanks
-
Yes, I did. I also deinstalled PA and then reinstalled it.
-
The shell extension bug will be fixed.
I just tried extracting form main and creating empty folders worked fine for RAR files. I think extracting empty folders doesn’t work for CAB because CAB cannot save empty folders.
