Some people have contacted me about getting a zip program that has an invisible (self-extract exe) unzip capabliity. I like 7-zip for all the features it boasts, and maybe this could be another one. I'd like to hear thoughts on this too.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Well let see, Installshield, Inno, Wise, Winrar, Quick Batch Compiler and other all hv that feature
maybe u should also tell them that their /S switch, /VerySilent, /qn switch, and MST are useless.
it is used for deployment,

What do you mean by "invisible" exactly?
I guess he means a self-extract exe which automatically extracts its files in a defined directory without user intervention.
I am new to 7zip and i am sad to say that the instructions are not easy to understand to a newbie.
I hv created a 7zip SFX.exe file, now i want to
autoextract to a directory for example c:\temp
how do i do that?
how can i make a 7zip_Sfx.exe auto extract to c:\temp2
Now the only way is runtime switch:
7z.exe -oc:\temp2 -y
I tried the
7z.exe -oc:\temp2 -y
but i still get this picture below. so it isn't totally silent

what is the point of extracting something without letting the user know that the "something" in object is beeing extracted?
Well let see, Installshield, Inno, Wise, Winrar, Quick Batch Compiler and other all hv that feature

it is used for deployment,
"-bd: Disable Percentage indicator"
^^^ Shouldn't that work for disabling the progress bar? Does it not work or am I just not implementing it right?
e.g. 7z.exe -oC:\Temp2 -y -bd
or 7z.exe -oC:\Temp2 -y -bd:
it doesn't work
