A way to automatically extract zipped files by double clicking.
- Obviously you need 7zip installed.
- Open RegEdit (Win+R, type regedit and press enter).
- Navigate to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\7zFM.exe\shell\
- There should be a folder with the default command (mine is called "Extract" but yours may be different, whatever it is doesn't matter). Inside that folder, click on "command".
- On the right pane, double click the "(Default)" key. I would recommend making a backup of the default command just in case you ever want to go back.
- Replace the Value Data with this command. "C:\Program Files\7-Zip\Extract_Open.bat" "%1"
- You can close RegEdit. Open File Explorer.
- Navigate to "C:\Program Files\7-Zip".
- Download Extract_Open.bat from this repo and put it in the folder you navigated to in step 8. You are done, enjoy!
