A zip app the extracts all subdirectories

[chris.p]

I'm looking for a zip program that unzips totally in one shot without going to the command line. In other words if I unzip a package like stuff.zip with 50 folders in it, some with 3 folders in, some of those with zips in, it will recurse all subdirectories and unzip anything inside as well.

You can do this with a command line switch but I prefer the GUI.

I've got 7-zip, Quickzip, Filzip etc and it's probably in one of those, I just need help to find it...

I use 7Zip - I select all the files I want unzipped in Windows Explorer and right click, then select the option "Extract to "*\"
You can configure what shows up in the context menu by opening the 7Zip File Manager.
Click on Tools/Options/Plugins/7Zip/Options/System Tab.
There are check boxes next to all the options, the one that's caled "Extract to <Folder>"
(minus quote marks) will extract any zip file into its own folder. 7Zip creates the folders as it unzips files.
I hope that's what you wanted.

My user name was somehow linked to an email address and was showing up in whatever those reports are that Rik is dealing with. Rather than have Rik track everything down and try and fix it, I changed my user name.
After all that "email linked to user name" stuff settles down I'll change it back.
I don't recognize that user name as me when I see it.

OK, thanks for that 7-zip advice Mango, er Nomad, um Rhiannon.

Will give it a try.

[edit]
Recursive unzip is what I need, guess that fixes it then.

IZArc development seems to be dead.
The forum was taken down.
The developer no longer responds to bug reports (or to any other email).
