Still gonna use 7zip, the default Windows packing/unpacking interface is atrocious.
Honestly though if they just added "extract to {archivename}\" as a right click option it would cover more than 90% of my usage.
I love KDE's "extract here, autodetect folder" feature for compressed files
that is why I still use dolphin
Literally the reason why 7 zip is the first thing I install on a windows machine.
All the linux file managers I use have that context menu built in, so nothing else to install 😅 except that I also sometimes use 7zip file manager via WINE because I like a GUI
Ditto.
Have you used Windows recently? This option currently exists as a right-click option in Windows 11.
I only see the "Extract All..." option which has been there for years and isn't what I want. If it just proceeded with the extraction and didn't pop up a window asking where to put it then we'd be in business, but as currently implemented it's an additional interaction to do the same thing.
Check out NanaZip
Fun fact "nana" means 7 in Japanese.
I didn't know that. Interesting spin
Its what i use now its really nice
Which is an incredible effort, very few software have an interface more atrocious than 7zip.
The UI is the main reason I actually paid for a WinRAR license.
I don't use the interface, that's the thing. I just use the contextual menu - which is more than enough to operate it easily. If the windows version of it had the same, then I wouldn't mind at all.
Fair point.
