I know it is a Zipped files as folder in Windows XP, but I don't want that function because I will install PowerArchiver to unzip Zipped files (How to say? PA will support 120 formats (zip, rar, and more)), then how to unregister zipfldr.dll in Unattended XP?

EDIT: you beat me to it by a pinch.... :)

In any case, the command I use during my uA installs is this:
regsvr32 /u /i /n /s zipfldr.dll
To understand what each of those switches do, type "regsvr32" into a CMD box.

No, I don't mean that... I mean when I make unattended XP CD and make an answer file, how to write for unregistering zipfldr.dll?

I know "open the Run box and type REGSVR32 /U ZIPFLDR.DLL" but how to write for unregistering zipfldr.dll in Unattended XP? Thanks for answering.

I have the following in my RunOnceEx.cmd :
REG ADD %KEY%\045 /VE /D "Disabling Zip Folders in Explorer
REG ADD %KEY%\045 /V 1 /D "%systemroot%\System32\regsvr32.exe /u %windir%\System32\zipfldr.dll /s" /f

I don't any!
I just let them all be - 'coz it might cause problems later on, and anyway your installed app will capture the file extension (zip for winrar) for itself.

This command removes bloat from your video files
regsvr32.exe /s /u %systemroot%\system32\shmedia.dll


This is the search assistant
regsvr32.exe /s /u %systemroot%\srchasst\srchui.dll

Thanks... I think it's the one that adds extra length info in explorer detail view.

You're right. But those shell extensions seems to slow down explorer on large number files directory. And it's annoying with too many context menu.
I'd like to keep it simple.
