Updates of the site and files (and sources) will be available in first or second week of January.
Sorry, but now i'm too busy

Do you have any links while the site is updated? Anything would help.

[Oleg_Sch]

Sorry, but I wrongly praised my capacity.
I do not have time yet to support the project.
May be in one or two month I'll return to this task

[Twisten]

no matter thank you so very much for the work you've done so far, its greatly appriciated

[cool400]

Could anyone confirm that I've used the right syntax?

RunProgram="hidcon:cmd /c \"reg add \"HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Safer\CodeIdentifiers\0\Paths\{0e9e68b9-1b29-48f9-8b44-881f89903609}\" /v Description /t REG_SZ /d \"Start des Antivir-Notifiers unterbinden\" /f\""

InstallPath="C:\\WinXP\\Temp\\Avira" 
;!@InstallEnd@!  

I ask this because it seems that the last REG-command and the XCOPY-commands don't work

Best regards

Is someone developing GUI for sfx installer creation? It would be great...

Errors in a code are! Write a code working .bat file - I will write to you how be correct should in a configuration file.

[COKEDUDEUSF]

Is there an updated version of this? I don't see any updates anywhere.

[rilley]

Hy, i`m new here, and i got an problem, i`m doing an sfx and i got some problems with the overwrite method .. it` not working even if i try to put OverwriteMode="1" or another value it stil not working

when i open the sfx archive it work but every time if i try to open i need to wait before is decompresend and then opened.. in winrar sfx if i put "do not overwrite existent files" it work i don`t need to wait but with 7z sfx.. no .. how can i make this work?

my config is

;!@Install@!UTF-8!
OverwriteMode="1"
InstallPath="c:\\test"
GUIFlags="8"
ExtractTitle="Program name"
ExecuteFile="nowait:program.exe"
;!@InstallEnd@!

and i use this 7zip module modified..

[Oleg_Sch]

Sorry, but I can not planning my time. The project temporary frozen. I am hope to return to it in fall.

[Oleg_Sch]

To rilley
I'm know about this problem (always full decompression, even if it is not needed) and this is "ToDo".
So far, no solutions to this problem

[rilley]

@Oleg_Sch and in the future you will improve this option,? and make more stabile like, when you was make the sfx to have the priority to change the icon,( i try in the actual vers and if you change the icon from the sfx will crash out)..

Now... I can promise only about "full decompression in 'Overwrite' mode".
Change icon...
What module that You use ? Is it compressed by UPX or other packers ? And more details about "crash out".
I'm think, that this is not problems of the module.
You can send me more info to email or PM

[rilley]

i`ll post right here, so i use this module 7zsd_all.sfx and if you upx it and you make some sfx files, and you wanna change the icon or something with the "reshack" it change but if you wanna build an sfx if you open the builded sfx, it crush, like "don`t send".. but if you build an sfx and if you wanna change something, i use in the cmd 'upx -d' for decompressing the module, and then i change the icon, and then i compres it back with the upx, and in this method works property, another think i have been seen is, you have the builded sfx and if you open the builded sfx in res hacker, to change the icon, or even to do nothing an then save it, an then open it, it give`s an "dont` send"

[Martin H]

It's not possible to change the icon of an upx'd sfx, so that's normal behaviour...

Also, unless you actually use Deflate or PPMd compression in your sfx's, then you don't need the '7zsd_all.sfx' module and can just stick to '7zsd.sfx', which only supports LZMA decompression, which is 7-Zip's default compression method...

[strel]

Thx for sharing your work Oleg. I found it very useful.

Hope you'll get time to revive this or any other projects.

NOTE: For the time being, I cannot get to the download page.

[TranceEnergy]

I'm working on making batch files to be executed while installing windows, pre login, extracting save games to their paths. Typically files that lies under Documents and settings(Users directory).
I also need a pre-install batch file routine to archive savegames (and also configurations). I'm archiving with winrar to extract it to a system path named variable ( %myuser% or %usersdir% f.ex).

As one who re-installs regularly its a pain in the a** to have to take backup of such files all the time, along with adobe settings and so forth.
Any chance of 7z sfx doing this?

I got a problem with the icon of the exe when the size of the archive is bigger than ~700mb.
The problem is that the icon gets replaced to the boring "white rectangle".

Is this a bug with 7zSD?
If it's a known bug, is there any way to prevent it?

I remember reading that this is a windows bug, common to all exe's over 700mb.

[Tefole]

My installer should only run by (-ai1, ai2 ...) command line switches.
If i or somebody just accidently doubleClick the Exe-File, i get an error, that setup.exe could not found.
To avoid this, î insert the line below:

RunProgram="hidcon:nowait:cmd /c dir"

Is there a solution, if i run this SFX by doubleclick (without command line switches) to get an output (error) text, that 'this installer' could only run by command line switches?

Yes. For example:

RunProgram="fm20:hidcon:cmd /c echo"
...
FinishMessage = "ATTENTION!!!\n\nThis installer could only run by command line switches.\n\nWork is interrupted! "
