uh winrar?
G'day guys,
Just wondering if anyone knows of any programs (preferably free) that I can use to queue the extraction of bunches of RAR files? (TV shows etc).
I had one called "Unpacker" that was doing everything I asked until it suddenly stopped working (tried reinstalling etc, no go). I could select a directory and it would extract all 22 episodes of a TV season and delete the messy files leaving me with just the .avi file, perfect.
Cheers in advance.
WinRAR would only extract the files at the same time, thus crippling the entire system as it tries to extract 84 archives at once.
I mean a queue program, one at a time, overnight sort of thing..
Definitly
7zip is definitely a good suggestion
EDIT: Answered wrong question

Or do you mean you have 84 different TV shows, not one in 84 parts? That would be easy to do in linux in the bash s :
Save the commands in a text file and give it execute permissions.Code:#!/bin/sh set -e unrar e -pPASSWORD1 MarriedWithChildren.rar rm MarriedWithChildren.rar unrar e -pPASSWORD2 Sopranos.rar rm Sopranos.rar unrar e -pPASSWORD3 Rapeman-Manga.rar rm Rapeman-Manga.rar
There has to be a Windows port of unrar or something similar that you could stick in the System directory so it's in the path and thus accessible from the command line. Then run a Windows version of the s script above from the command line. I think Windows uses the command del (delete) instead of UNIX's rm (remove) also.
