Why all the fuss over RAR? The biggest problem is getting RAR to ZIP so it's compatible to more people in the world, not less. 1980 called, they want their compressor back.

Midas on 2014-05-25 19:18

The changelog posted is for ArcConvert v0.66, plus there now seems to be a 64 bits version linked at the bottom of the Sourceforge page ("Update for 64bit OS").

Note also that although WinRAR gives you a 30 day trial, as the meme goes, it will never end...

DavidRoper: even among very technical people, I can't seem to get anyone to use anything but ZIP. The dream of getting people to use one of a number of radically better compression formats has been going on for over a decade now and at this stage just seems like a lost cause.

md5hash already works that way. The INI will be created on first run if it does not exist.

Isn't the "Right Click Menu" integration added in version 4.0 basically incompatible with the concept of portable applications? Does this upgrade have other effects on the registry that impact/break the portability enjoyed by previous versions?

SecurityXploded on 2010-10-18 08:18

@Jimmy

'Right Click Menu' is for the list box within the application unlike the Explorer right click context menu. So no issues with portability.

Like earlier versions, it always store settings to the ini file in the same location as exe file. No read/write to the registry is performed.

In fact I tried to contact the developer about the download problem via the web form.

It is available on main webpage.. if instead you open the sourceforge page, click "ArcThemALL! Web Page..." link in Description to move to main webpage..

jrgermann on 2011-11-14 17:53

Thanks, Lupo73, for that info. Looks like the download link should point to the Sourceforge link that comes from the website page.

__philippe on 2017-03-26 23:45

ArcThemALL sorely lacks a critical "List" option to examine an archive contents BEFORE launching
any decompression operation.

Voted Down.

Brickbats accepted/Vote reverted in case this option were demonstrated to be available after all...;-)

ProEject v1.0.0.0

Andrew Lee on 8 Jul 2023
  • 875KB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 1 Aug 2011
  • Suggested by guinness

ProEject allows you to safely and reliably eject your removable drives. Without ejection, removing a drive can harm your data and the built-in "Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media" feature of Windows often fails if you have open files on the drive. In addition, ProEject cleans traces of the drive in the registry and local directories, flushes the contents of open files, and closes all drive applications running before ejecting.

ProEject lets you eject any removable drive and not just the drive hosting the program. Allows you to pick individual actions (like Clean or Close), open root directories in Windows Explorer, and view properties of each drive.

@NunoEFSilva: "How can all this fit in less than 1 mega?" These days, most of a program's heft is either a framework, like Java, Qt or Electron(cf. https://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=23425), or all the embedded media included to make the UI all singing and dancing...

I can recall an era when people competed to make the snazziest graphics and music fit into a 4KB "demo" -- usually built with assembly... :o

Universal Extractor v1.6.1

webfork on 8 Jul 2016
  • 11MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 12 May 2010
  • Suggested by DigeratiPrime

Universal Extractor allows you to extract files from a wide variety of archive files, including ZIP, ARJ, LZH, as well as MSI and EXE files created using various installer packages (such as Nullsoft, Wise, Inno Setup, etc). Useful for testing apps for portability because you can extract files directly from installer packages without having to go through the installation process. Note that the original developer no longer updates the program so some manual updates may be required.

Alternatively, an unofficial version with the latest-and-greatest internals is available (on Lupo's PenSuite site).

Commercial use note: license restrictions are present on included files UHARC02.EXE and UHARC04.EXE, but can be deleted without dramatic impact on the software. See website for more information.
