7-Zip 18.05 (x64) : Copyright (c) 1999-2018 Igor Pavlov : 2018-04-30
Hi Don,
After reading elqasar2's post, I installed last 7-zip 18.05 on my computer, created a 7-zip file with password & encrypted file names, now results changed :
1) With last 7-zip version 18.05 (2018) :
2) With version 7-zip 9.20 (2011) I had on my computer during 2011-2018 :
But truly, my thought is you shouldn't work on that issue because it's not an issue : "unknown error" means the file (7zip, rar etc...) is passworded AND contains encrypted file names. Please dont spend your precious time on trying to get the correct message "cannot view encrypted archive" on so many archive extensions, depending on old or new version of each archiver etc...
If the file names show in Hover Box, that's great : it will mean the archive is not protected, or protected with a password only : that should be enough for all of us.

Forgot about that one: could you add the "ova" extension to the list as well? It is treated as a
tar format by 7z.exe.
Does this list OVA contents (if <curitem> is an OVA)?
Code: Select all
text runret('"C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7z.exe" l ' . "<curitem>");

3) What didn't work is doing same for a rar file (password + encrypted file names)
=> "Unknown error" even in beta... 30
Can you do this then for that RAR file?
Code: Select all
text runret('"<path to UnRAR.exe>" l ' . quote(<curitem>));

Yes.

Sorry for interrupting with the following...
This seems not being resolved as expected:
Also, I do not find
this a good idea:
Note that if the path found in the INI does not exist XYplorer will try to automatically retrieve an existing path and update the INI value if successful.
Update:
Now I see that it is even not being resolved correctly in the address line. Is my expectation wrong - should one not use ".." for one level up?
1. I did not say that relative path syntax is supported.
2. Why is it not a good idea? (I thought when you take your USB-XYplorer to various systems, it's a good idea when it tries to find those files anew when necessary...)

That's something new, never done that before, let's try... ok, Scripting menu => Try script... while file Test3.rar is selected (passworded & encrypted file names) :
text runret('"C:\Program Files\WinRAR\UnRAR.exe" l ' . quote(<curitem>));
quote()
----
F:\Test3.rar
runret()
----
"C:\Program Files\WinRAR\UnRAR.exe" l "F:\Test3.rar"
text

**********************************************************************************
Now I run same script while Test4.rar is selected (password only)
quote()
----
F:\Test4.rar
runret()
----
"C:\Program Files\WinRAR\UnRAR.exe" l "F:\Test4.rar"
text

I join the 2 rar files in case it may help you, password to use is "test" (without quotes), they both contain a simple txt file.
Good luck Don

That was too chaotic for me to understand.
******************
Code: Select all
text runret('"<path to UnRAR.exe>" l ' . quote(<curitem>));
1) paste it into the Address Bar
2) fill in your
<path to UnRAR.exe>
3) Select your file with encrypted names
4) press ENTER
What is returned?

That was much simpler
It returns this (as in chaotic precedent post)

So, so... "Program aborted". Well, that could mean anything. So, I will do nothing. It's good as it is now.
Thanks!

No, thanks to you
As I said many times, don't do anything if file names are encrypted, everything is perfect !
Something interesting to remember with Winrar is :
* When password + encrypted file names, then when you double clic on the rar file name (like in my attached Test3.rar) the password window is immediately opened (i.e. Winrar main window doesn't appear so you can't see anything about the rar structure file, subfolders etc...), that's the meaning of the "Program aborted" in XYplorer, Winrar simply refuses to continue in this 1st case and it's normal.
* When password only (like my attached Test4.rar) and you double clic on the rar file, then Winrar main window opens immediately, it shows you the filenames (with * in the end) even if you'll have to provide password
only now to open them, that's why XYplorer shows, in this 2nd case :

ad 1: Yep. Please, I would appreciate the relative path syntax support. (BTW, I have just seen that it is supported correctly in the address line. I have no idea how it appeared not to work some hours ago - must be my mistake.)
ad 2: I carry my small portable world on a USB stick, since I do not want to depend on something *possibly* existing somewhere. I want to use the exact versions which I select. However, since I occasionally copy this portable world *somewhere* locally, I want the interdependencies to keep working, irrelevant of the absolute position and locally installed tools. In this respect I am not happy with XY tweaking my tweaks - it reminds me of M$ knowing my wishes better than I do.
So, sorry, but I am just consistently following the portable idea.

Why not this? It would work: ..\Uncompress

Damn it Nighted, it really works. Somehow I expected that the full/absolute path is needed.
Many thanks for the idea!
Well, issue solved for me.

I have 7zip installed to its usual folder. When I open a new instance of XY and set the Show HowerBox option (the "Archive files" is already checked), the rar preview is not shown, only if I set the 7zip folder name explicitely in the "ZipPathUnRAR=". Zip files work well even with empty "ZipPath7zip="
