7zip Quiet

[Evelina Browder]

Onepossibility would be to spawn the child process with popen, so its output will come back to the parent to be processed/displayed (if desired) or else completely ignored (create your popen object with stdout=PIPE and stderr=PIPE to be able to retrieve the output from the child).

Like they said, to hide most of the screen-filling messages you could use ... some_archive.7z FIND /V "Compressing" but that "FIND" would also remove the error messages that had that word. You would not be warned. That "FIND" also may have to be changed because of a newer 7-zip version.

Examining 7zip source I found hidden -ba switch that seems to do the trick. Unfortunately it is not finished. I managed to make it work with several modifications of sources but it's just a hack. If someone's interested, the option variable is called options.EnableHeaders and changes are required in CPP/7zip/UI/Console/Main.cpp file.Alternatively you can poke 7Zip's author to finish the feature in tracker. There are several requests on this and one of them is here.

made great difference, esp for parsing the output in scripts.There is no need to modify anything, just use -ba switch in version19. This was also told bysomeone above. I'm putting as answer as I can't comment.

You must run 7-Zip File Manager in administrator mode. Right-click the icon of 7-Zip File Manager, and then click Run as administrator.Then you can change file associations and some other options.

You can get big difference in compression ratio for different sorting methods,if dictionary size is smaller than total size of files.If there are similar files in different folders, the sorting "by type" can provide better compression ratio in some cases.

Note that sorting "by type" has some drawbacks.For example, NTFS volumes use sorting order "by name", so if an archive uses another sorting, then the speed of some operations for files with unusual order can fall on HDD devices (HDDs have low speed for "seek" operations).

If you have such archive, please don't call the 7-Zip developers about it.Instead try to find the program that was used to create the archive and inform the developers of that program that their software is not ZIP-compatible.

7-Zip doesn't know folder path of drop target.Only Windows Explorer knows exact drop target.And Windows Explorer needs files (drag source) as decompressed files on disk.So 7-Zip extracts files from archive to temp folder and then 7-Zip notifies Windows Explorer about paths of these temp files.Then Windows Explorer copies these files to drop target folder.

You're probably using a *.* wildcard. 7-Zip doesn't use the operating system's wildcard mask parser, and consequently treats *.* as any file that has an extension. To process all files you must use the * wildcard instead or omit the wildcard altogether.

7-Zip stores only relative paths of files (without drive letter prefix).You can change current folder to folder that is common for all files that you want to compress and then you can use relative paths:

32-bit Windows allocates only 2 GB of virtual space per one application. Also that block of 2 GB can be fragmented (for example, by some DLL file), so 7-Zip can't allocate one big contiguous block of virtual space.There are no such limitations in 64-bit Windows. So you can use any dictionary in Windows x64, if you have required amount of physical RAM.

There are some possible cases when archive is corrupted: You can open archive and you can see the list of files, but when you press Extract or Test command, there are some errors: Data Error or CRC Error. When you open archive, you get message "Can not open file 'a.7z' as archive"It's possible to recover some data. Read about recovering procedure:Recover corrupted 7z archive

One way is to use the 7z.dll or 7za.dll (available from sf.net for download). The 7za.dll works via COM interfaces. It, however, doesn't use standard COM interfaces for creating objects. You can find a small example in "CPP\7zip\UI\Client7z" folder in the source code. A full example is 7-Zip itself, since 7-Zip works via this dll also. There are other applications that use 7za.dll such as WinRAR, PowerArchiver and others.

Since 7-Zip is licensed under the GNU LGPL you must follow the rules of that license. In brief, it means that any LGPL'ed code must remain licensed under the LGPL. For instance, you can change the code from 7-Zip or write a wrapper for some codefrom 7-Zip and compile it into a DLL; but, the source code of that DLL (including your modifications / additions / wrapper) must be licensed under the LGPL or GPL.Any other code in your application can be licensed as you wish.This scheme allows users and developers to change LGPL'ed code and recompilethat DLL. That is the idea of free software. Read more here: can also read about the LZMA SDK, which is available under a more liberal license.

Do you have sensitive ears? Do you prefer to play your games with your loudspeakers turned way down for good reasons? Did you find - when playing in 'quiet sounds' mode, most of the environmental sound effects are inaudible, taking away atmosphere from this awesome game? Then this mod is just for you!

People with sensitive ears might have water cooled PCs, because they can't tolerate noisy computer fans and feel bothered by sharp, loud sounds in games. During weeks of gameplay I fine tuned the A2:CS sound-set, including "city arrival" FX, "dungeon remote noises", "crowd sounds in cities" and all kinds of too loud and sharp equipment & stuff sound effects in such a way that:

3. If your eyes are sensitive too, but you find Potawan's graphics UI MOD too dark, you might wanna use this Slightly Darkened Main UI MOD: unpack Slightly_Darkened_Main_UI.7z into your "Avernum 2 Graphics Core" folder, overwriting the existing file.

I'm still working my way through A:EftP, but I imagine that once I move on to 2 I'll be very grateful for this mod. With 1, I have gone in and manually changed some of the .ogg files that I found too sharp (usually just by replacing them with copies of more acceptable sound effects from the same folder), so I suspect that we may well have very similar auditory issues. Having the environmental noises louder overall in comparison to the other sound effects is something that I've actually idly wished for on more than one occasion while playing this game. Thank you so much for putting in the work and generously sharing it here.

A proper silent/quiet installation will complete without any user interaction, but if you execute an installation without specifying the correct silent/quiet parameter, the hidden remote process will hang indefinitely without ever completing.

I often use zip with the -q flag (actually -r -q) for a quiet operation at the command line. Routinely I also then unzip each file I create, and check by eye whether the contents look correct; before I send the file on.

Without -q there is too much information; however in this case warnings are issued in situations I care about. For example, without -q missing files or directories are reported. An example is shown below.

I've been banging my head on this problem for a few days now, and can't seem to find a resolution. I'm moderately familiar with packaging and scripting installs, so there is a possibility my issue lies with my understanding of patching MSI files with MSP's.

What I found was some of the settings in the ACW did not propagate to the installation . Mostly, none of the custom HKCU settings replicated to the user's registry. I found a bug report with Acrobat Reader DC 2015 where the registry keys weren't migrating over properly at launch of Reader

What I discovered above is that in step 2, I was creating a transform file using the 2015 version of Acrobat Reader DC, but using the 2017 version of the ACW. This might have been where some of my problems were coming from, so my next goal was to patch the MSI using the AcroRdrDCUpd1701220093.msp, and then re-create the transform file from scratch. This is where I'm getting a little lost.

I read that an 'Administrative Installation' needs to be created, and then patched. So I ran the command msiexec /a acroread.msi /p AcroRdrDCUpd1701220093.msp and then installed to a different folder called "Administrative Installations\Adobe Reader DC". I then ran msiexec -i acroread.msi TRANSFORMS=acroread.mst /quiet from the original READER folder (because the MSI seems to have been updated) and I get all sorts of missing files errors.

All I'm trying to do is configure a transform file from the latest version of Acrobat Reader DC (2017) and then install the package, including the transform, to a virtual workstation for testing. Can someone point out what I'm doing wrong? Tnx.

Thanks Antoinetahiti. This did work as you mentioned. I also discovered later on that there was a redistributable 2017 version (I had to apply for a license) of the MSI available that DID work as I had intended. It turns out the consumer version I was using used the 2015 MSI version internally, which had some of those bugs I mentioned in my original post. The 2017 version of the MSI I downloaded applied all preferences flawlessly. Lesson learned: Don't use the consumer version, use the MSI redistributable version meant for enterprise deployment.

We are facing the same issue. After applying patch, the installation is not happening as it says missing files error and rolls back. Could you please tell me what needs to be done after. We are patching the 2018 patch. Is license mandatory for this to work. We dont have licenses provided.

I'm following the directions you placed here and I'm confused when I get to Step 6 as I don't see a SETUP.EXE that was created. Does it appear in a folder other than the Reader folder that was created?
