7z

7z

Execute 7zip with the provided arguments.

This command is a wrapper for 7z.exe and passes any arguments directly to the executable. Generally speaking PEBakery's builtin Decompress command works best for archives, such as 7z/zip/rar/etc. however extracting from self-extracting .exe and installers such as NSIS don't work. Use the 7z command to extract these files directly with 7zip.

Syntax

7z,<Args>[,<WorkDir>]

Arguments

Argument	Description
Args	The arguments to pass to the 7z executable.

Return Codes

Variable	Description
#r	ExitCode provided by the 7zip application.

Remarks

Make sure to escape double-quotes, percent, etc. in Args.

See the 7zip documentation for more details on 7z.exe arguments.
