> That setting is if you select multiple files and want to unpack all of them into own subfolders.
Indeed, if the user selects more archives, the checkbox is automatically selected. A choice that seems a little odd to me.
I think the most common situation is that you want them into separate folders. it is also what is most safe. You risk overwriting files from other archive if you unpack them into same location
>By default it should unpack it into a folder named after the archive.
Yes, but this happens in the same directory the archive is.
Consider this scenario:
- in the left side I have an archive;
- I want to unpack it in the right side, in a directory with the same name.
How can I do that fairly common operation with MC?
Most people expect unpack to end up in same folder. (since it was is happening by default in Windows explorer.)
But you can press the Target button and the entire path is change to the location of the Target panel.
and if you press the checkbox.. the default is change to always use the target panel location.
What you also can do. Is to handle the Zip/7z as a folder and just browse into it and select that you want to copy and copy from it to target as normal, You do not need to "unpack" to unpack an archive..
