Needs better MSI support. The current MSI unpacking process isn't that great...

The best MSI unpacker I know is LessMSIerables which is open source but .NET... If someone could learn from the source and implement this (or port it to C/C++ and integrate it with Universal Extractor) it would be perfect... I'm not a coder so I can't be of any more help...

They register DLL files as Shell Extensions in order to do that. Universal Extractor simply uses the registry to add its context menu options.

Yes I know, but would be very hard to create a dll shell extension?

yes, this too, I wish an "iconified and cascading context menu shell extension" ;)

Another feature request would be changing PEiD with Exeinfo PE, which is more accurate.

And another one: support for extracting zip sfx archive (only WinZip can extract this type).

Extract cab sfx from Microsoft, using internal switches:
Usage:
 /extract:path, extracts the content of the package to the path folder
 /log[:path to log file], enables verbose logging for the update installation
 /lang:lcid, sets the user interface to the specified locale when multiple locales are available within the package
 /quiet, runs the package in silent mode
 /passive, runs the update without any interaction from the user
 /norestart, prevents prompting of user when reboot of machine is needed
 /forcerestart, forced restart of machine once update is complete
 /?, shows this help message

and not 7-Zip. Tested with Office 2010 Pro Plus Beta availlable for download from Microsoft site and with some Office 2007 updates.

Other cab sfx types can be extracted with 7-Zip or using internal switches:
Command line options:

/Q -- Quiet modes for package,

/T:<full path> -- Specifies temporary working folder,

/C -- Extract files only to the folder when used also with /T.

/C:<Cmd> -- Override Install Command defined by author.

A useful feature would be an option to delete the archive upon successful extraction. Also, maybe have a checkbox to prompt for a log location so you can keep an individual record of what has been done (very useful for batch processes once multiple file support comes).

  • XP was my idea. 3rd party apps make NT6 my idea.

Please do iconified and cascaded context menus even if it requires a context menu shell extension. Why do you refuse to use the registry to add your context menu options? With more and more apps today having shell integration, three context menu items on the main context menu makes it very very long. Please add cascaded context menus in the next release.

Edit: Good news! Windows 7 supports cascaded context menus with subcommands and also supports icons in context menus all using the registry. See http://msdn.microsof...171(VS.85).aspx.

I've noticed in the past that many exe files (especially from Microsoft... like the Device Center or the VBRuntimes setups) can't be extracted correctly with Universal Extractor but WinRAR can extract them! I'd love to see this fixed in Universal Extractor.

Also about MSI unpacking I think I found the perfect extraction component (well at least in XP... doesn't work completelly in Vista/7 but the devs give some instructions on how to fix this). I'm talking about LinMSI (just drag-n-drop the msi on the vb script) from JSWare (they give info on that page).

I'm tired of not seeing anything done with this request of mine.

I have packed a small example here. It is the largest file that is in an archive too big to post.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PSTREOLL

Target file: Dancing_Dog_.wmv

(video of a dog dancing to salsa music)

Yes it is a Megaupload link. If the URL above does not work or is censored for any reason, the file code is: PSTREOLL

To manually decode the files:

Select a file.

Right click for the popup menu. Choose "Send To..."

Select Universal Extractor.

In the dialogue, select "OK"

The file will be scanned for its format. It will be detected as a BinHex file. After the process is completed a folder will be created with the correct file name. Select and copy the folder's filename. Open the folder.

Select the entire filename of the folder which would be UNKNOWN.001 (you must have file extension visibility turned on for this) and then paste the correct filename & extension in its place. Voila! You now have a playable/viewable file!

I want Universal Extractor to have an apartment for extracting files from email files and email file enclosures such as Becky!'s

You need to run the patch file directly, the Installshield system is a protection that installs the package into a secure RAM disk, which contains a dialogue system, the game's script locking utility, and a few "search and replace" tools to change the game's character systems for fair gameplay. The whole shebang is all done in RAM, to prevent armchair hackers from discovering ways to put back the hi-kill settings the patch takes down. You won't be able to unpack it with UniExtract as the patch's version of Installshield prevents access to the encrypted data inside.
