How to see the content list in a RAR file in Quick View.

Post by *jeff001 »

I am a Beginner and just start learning how to use TC.
I install the ulister as a lister plugin in TC 10.00, but it can't quick view the content list in the RAR file. It says "Error. This version of the file format is not supported" when I press CTRL + Q or F3.

I search it on the internet, but can not find a way to solve this problem. I don't know if there is a way to use the Quick View for RAR files?
Can someone help me? Thank you very much!

jeff001,
Why not just press Enter on a RAR file?

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

Or use Ctrl+right arrow (Ctrl+left arrow when in the left window) to show the content of the RAR as a file list in the opposite panel.

Of course it is possible to show RAR file content in QuickView (or Lister) window.

You need:
a) Anycmd lister plugin - https://totalcmd.net/plugring/anycmd.html
b) RAR console program - http://www.rarlab.com/ or (maybe even better) 7-zip - http://www.7-zip.org/

1. Instal (or just unpack from install file) 7-zip or WinRAR
2. instal anycmd plugin (like any other lister plugin)
3. edit ANYCMD.INI in plugin directory, change "command" line to looks like:

Code: Select all

command=C:\Program Files\WinRAR\Rar.exe l -scA "%s"
or

Code: Select all

command=C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe l -sccWIN "%s"
