Okay ive been boggling my mind for hours now trying to make a SELF EXTRACTING sfx archive.
I have like 10 files.
I select them all and go add to archive..
I set it to sfx archieve
and i cant find how to make it NOT popup that install menu.
when i run files.exe it popsup that bloody menu to click the "install button"
I tried googling for winrar commands and shit for it, but i failed miserably, anyone have a link or can explain pelase?
(i was all teh files to self extract without it popping up that isntall menu)
Thx.

do you want extract this files remotely? then just make an .rar archive, get the unrar.exe , upload both files on the remote box und the command to extract is:
unrar.exe e archive.rar

in winrar:
Tools>Convert archive to SFX
goto SFX>advanced SFXP options
goto Mode>Silent Mode and choose Hide all
there are more options...

yes Psychotec is right, it is like that that I makes mine and it goes very
well, you can even launch programs automatically after the file is unrar

also u can convert the file to "dos mode" in options , so that appeared to be as a 'normal file' and not 'winrar icon file'

Just convert it into "Dos mode" then enter commandline and type:
The filename + x (myrarfiles.rar x) then it will extract all the files

also you can do it by simply adding the string "Silent=1" without the quotes, as a comment inside your sfx rar.

Just add this to the comments:
| CODE |
Path=%windir%\system32\Setup Silent=1 Overwrite=1
|
Now it will extract all your files in the SFX archive whenever the SFX is being executed silently to C:\WINNT\system32\Setup or C:\WINDOWS\system32\Setup whatever ur windir is called.
Enjoy!
