Programmatically uncheck Show Unzipped Files option for Winzip

1

I am in need of setting the “Show Unzipped Files” under Home > Unzip options to unchecked for the Winzip 16.5 . The default installation of winzip MSI set the “Show Unzipped Files” options as checked .

I have searched for and modified a number of Windows registry setting related to Win-zip in a test lab env. However I am out of luck with this . I looked at the option of customize the WinZip MSI, editing the Property table in the WinZip MSI file I couldn’t find any property related to this option.

I would like to run a script to modify this default functionally . Is there any registry setting corresponding to this option, if so how this be modified ? Can this option be modified programmatically by changing the win-zip ribbon bar configuration?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Sal.

Problem Solved :

To uncheck the "Show Unzipped Files" option in WinZip, we would need to create a registry string value named OpenExplFolder in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Nico Mak Computing\WinZip\WinZip and give it a value of "0". If no select is made by the user , OpenExplFolder string value will not exist.

I have made this change in the registry and tested it out in the lab environment and it work perfectly fine.

1What does this have to do with Java? Or C#? This smells of tag spam. If you have a specific Java question, then ask your Java question with your Java code. If you're just fishing for eyeballs, please remove the Java tag. I also have to wonder if this is a SO question at all. It seems better suited for the superuser's site. – Hovercraft Full Of Eels – 2013-10-02T15:03:35.313
