Reads through a list of passwords, determines which password (if any) applies to each archive, and extracts to a subfolder in the same folder as the archive.
Blisteringly FAST!!
Extractor supports all archive formats supported by 7-Zip (7z.dll).
Update: Extractor now supports split 7z archives in the form "archive.7z.001", "archive.7z.002", "archive.7z.003", etc.
Update: Extractor v1.0.7 now supports split RAR archives in the form "archive.part1.rar" or "archive.part01.rar" or "archive.part001.rar" - see the release for more details.
Update: On exit, Extractor v1.0.8 makes a backup copy of "passwords.txt" ("passwords_bak1/2/3.txt"), and then renames "passwords_deduped.txt" to "passwords.txt". The "deduped" file is a sorted version of "passwords.txt" with any duplicates removed. "passwords_deduped.txt" is rewritten each time you add a new password to "passwords.txt" in Extractor and becomes the master password file on program exit.
Update:
- Extractor v1.0.9 monitors the clipboard and places any copied text into the password box, ready for the user to click "Add PW".
- Clicking an archive file name in the grid will remove that file from the grid.
- Clicking on a password in the grid will copy that password to the clipboard. The password will appear in the password box, confirming that the copy was successful.
N.B. Initially, this will only apply to split RAR archives with an encrypted header. Support for split, multi-volume RAR archives which have encrypted files but an unencrypted header will not yet be supported. If you want to build the project yourself, the source code for this update has already been added to the repository. You will need the source code to my TRAR component: https://github.com/BazzaCuda/TRARunrar/, although you don't need to install it into the Delphi IDE.
Extractor detects the archive format of each file by the file contents, not the file extension. In fact, an archive file doesn't need to have an extension at all for Extractor to work.
In the .ini file, DLPath=<some folder> supplies a base folder for the "Find Files" function, typically your downloads folder. You can also drag and drop files from any folder (or multiple folders) from your File Explorer onto the Extractor window to add files to the list. Holding down the SHIFT key when you drop the files will replace the current list.
You can drag and drop multiple files at the same time and they will all be added to the grid.
If you click a row in the grid, the file will be removed from the grid. It doesn't delete the archive file; Extractor contains no file deletion code whatsoever. You can add the file back in either by clicking "Add Files" or by dragging and dropping the file onto the grid.
Clicking a password cell in the grid will copy the contents to the clipboard.
Passwords are contained in the passwords.txt file which is a UTF-8 file to allow for special characters. If you edit passwords.txt, make sure your editor keeps the file UTF-8 encoded. You can manually edit this file and check the "reload PWs" checkbox. The file will be reloaded on the next "Find PWs" or "Extract" operation. This saves you having to restart the app between edits.
If you use the add password box, Extractor will maintain the UTF-8 encoding of the passwords.txt file automatically.
In the .ini file, DLExts= provides a comma-separated, or semi-colon-separated list specifying which archive extensions the "Find Files" function should search for in the DLPath folder. e.g. *.7z,*.rar,*.zip*.001
You may drag and drop any archive file format onto the grid - dragged and dropped files are not limited by the extensions you've specified for the "Find Files" function. You can even drag and drop a file which has no file extension: if it's a valid, supported archive format, it will be extracted.
The "Extract" function will do a "Find PWs" first. You don't have to do "Find PWs" first and then "Extract".
If a password is found, it will be copied to the top of the internal list so that if subsequent archives use the same password it will be found much quicker the next time. The internal list gets reset each time the app is run.
Extractor outputs a sorted and de-duplicated copy of passwords.txt called "passwords_deduped.txt".
The 7z.dll API doesn't handle split RAR archives (...part1.rar, ...part2.rar, etc.). This was addressed in v1.0.7 The 7z.dll API doesn't handle split .7z archives (...7z.001, ...7z.002, etc.). This was addressed in v1.0.6
