Pregunta
example
There is a file "sample.rar".
Folder structure is: "rising\dawn\ and here there are many (folders1, folders2 and file1, file2)" in this archive.
i have used following command
7z.exe x "sample.rar" "rising\dawn\*" -oi:\delete
The result is: all files and folders in "rising\dawn\" are extracted to "i:\delete" folder but the empty parent folders "rising\dawn\" are also created in destination folder.
e.g. destination looks:
i:\delete\rising\dawn\folder1\file1.bmp
i:\delete\rising\dawn\folder2\subfolder
i:\delete\rising\dawn\file1.txt
i:\delete\rising\dawn\file2.txt
i don't want "rising\dawn\" empty folders to be created but the folder structure there onwards must be as is in the archive.
i want the result:
i:\delete\folder1\file1.bmp
i:\delete\folder2\subfolder
i:\delete\file1.txt
i:\delete\file2.txt

You can extract the archive normally and
1) move the lower level folder/files to where you would like it, then
2) remove the extra top level archive folders.
Code to do so will depend on the exact task.
Using e
command instead of x
and add -r
option works well.
Like this:
7z.exe e -r "sample.rar" "rising\dawn\*" -oi:\delete
My executable version is "7-Zip [64] 9.20 2010-11-18", And the platform is Windows 8.1.
This command line eliminates unnecessary parent folders and preserves the hierarchy of folders.
You need to use the e command rather than the x command:
7z.exe e "sample.rar" "scholar\update\*" -oi:\delete
Using e instead of x means 7zip will extract all matching files into the same folder (as specified via the -so switch, or the current directory if this isn't specified) rather than preserving the folder structure from inside the archive.
