How do you stop 7zip from using an intermediate temp directory when decompressing files?

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. To avoid temp file usage, you can use Extract command of 7-Zip or drag-and-drop from 7-Zip to 7-Zip.


The tar format for retrieving drivers is used in what windows 2000 windows xp unix netware?

tar extension can more or less be compared to zip: a tarball (this is the name of a "tar extension'ed file") is used to group file (and eventually folders of files). Although tarballs are mostly used in Unix flavors, programs such as WinRar for Windows can extract files from them. In short, such drivers may work for both Windows and/or Unix flavors.

How you convert zip file to auc file?

You cannot convert a .ZIP file to a .AUC file. A .ZIP file is an archive, and .AUC is audio. However, if there is an .AUC file located inside the .ZIP file, then you can extract it using software or even Windows internal .ZIP handling. First try double-clicking the .ZIP file to see if it opens. If it does, then deal with the files the same as you would files in a regular Windows folder. If not, then download PKZip, 7Zip, Rar!, or other archiver that handles .ZIP files. After installing an archiver, the likely action is to right-click the file you want to unzip and select unzip.


When downloading a zip file it turns it into a folder but I want it to be a zip file how do I change my setting to do so?

If the folder has a zipper on it, it's a zip file. That's what zip files look like in Windows XP and later, since the OS has support for zip files built in. If you're really getting an uncompressed folder, you'd need to specify what browser you were using in order to get an answer.
