Re: Winrar Question--Opening multiple files

let say i have several rar files in the folder:

file1.part1.
file1.part2
file1.part3
file2.part1
file2.part2
file2.part3

instead of unraring file1 and then file2 individually
can i somehow issue a command for winrar to unrar
all the files in the folder at once. Because otherwise
if i have many files to unrar it takes a long time to do
them individually.


I don't have or use WinRAR. Why not use a .bat script file to do what you want, or even just run it from the command line, where you use a for-loop? For example:

   for %a in (*) do winrar "%a"
or

   for <rootpath> %a in (*) do winrar "%a"

In a .bat file, you need to double the percent sign. Running "for /?" from a command line tells you how to use it.
