Version: FreeExtractor 1.43
"Awesome! But don't like that initial screen."
Pros: This program works great and does exactly what it describes. It gives you lots of options, lets you extract to the system temp folder (hint: use "%TEMP%\mydirectory"), even lets you execute a file when extraction is finished, AND even clean up after itself, AND lets you pick your own icon for the extractor!
Cons: The ONLY thing I don't like (and why I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars) is it doesn't give you an option to disable the initial screen, which kind of detracts from the nice experience it provides otherwise. You can at least provide your own title and message, but you can't pick your own image... though you could probably hack it. ;)

Version: FreeExtractor 1.43
Summary: This is exactly what I've been looking for. The Package and Deployment Wizard is good, but doesn't allow for single executable deployment. I was dreading having to go the over-complicated MSI route, or purchasing expensive setup software. PKZip ca... read more
