Why can't a fucking archive program ignore top level folders entirely? If I click extract here, I want the files THERE even if there's a folder in the archive. If I click extract to folder, nobody ever in history has wanted a folder in a folder!

>>59278100
"Extract Archive Here, Auto-Detect Subfolder" is an option when right clicking zip files in Dolphin (the KDE file manager). It creates a top level folder only if there is no top level folder.

I believe Mac OS X also has this as default behavior but it's been awhile since I used a Mac.

GNU/Linux has been doing this since before the century change. As the first retard illustrated, what is happening is that you're too dumb to use it properly, because you are not taking advantage of the convenience features in the wrapper. Stop being edgy children who try to look like 1337 haxx0rs by using the terminal of everything, you're not looking cool, just stupid.

If he had hit the "Extract" button on the archive manager that popped up, it wouldn't have created the "test" folder

Doesn't matter because Ark can do either, or even autodetect. Is there nothing like that on Windows?

Windows 10 Cloud is not every other version of Windows 10.
It's also not released yet and won't be for a long while. No one really knows anything about it past the fact that Microsoft has been pushing some optional settings related to it in insider builds. You won't be seeing your Home, Pro, or Enterprise versions of Windows getting locked down to the point of being unable to unzip files or install apps from outside the Windows store unless your system administrator (you or your employer) makes it so.

Does 7z do autodetect? Or autodetect and, if everything's in one folder, rename the root folder to the name of the zip file? It'd be nice if the potential names where listed in the dropdown.

>>59280615
>It'd be nice if the potential names where listed in the dropdown.
They are. It gives you an option to extract to a new dir with the name of the zip file or to extract the contents straight to the dir the zip file is in. For the former option it shows "Extract to <name>\", or "Extract to *\" if you're extracting multiple zip files.

>>59277806
The file structure is nearly identical. You would only organize as A if you've got multiple folders. Otherwise, B.

You are all going to die one day just thought id remind you of that. Also breathe manually.

grandpa is that you?

>>59280642
>or to extract the contents straight to the dir the zip file is in
I know, but there's a chance there's no folder holding all the files and you spill them all over the current folder.
However, if you "Extract to <name>\", and the contents are in a folder, then you get a folder in a folder.

With option A, you are forced to unzip into a subfolder (or a subfolder inside a subfolder)

With option B, you can choose to unzip into a subfolder, or directly into the folder

It should be obvious that option B is objectively best.

No I mean if he had opened the window and clicked extract, it would not have created the "test" directory, it would have dumped them in the working directory. What he did was open the window to show us the files that were inside, then close it, right click on the file and click extract.

>>59282974
>This is why opensource will never be big, when bad choices like this keep being made
That makes no goddamn sense. The "Extract, Autodetect sub-folder" option was first introduced in KDE's Dolphin, which is open source software.
What you're saying is like if someone crashed a Tesla into a school and you said "This is why electric cars will never be big, when bad choices like this keep being made"

this is exactly why it takes me so long to batch extract and sort bulk downloaded albums. it's either have them all extract a billion files into the same parent folder because autists can't figure out the problem with using A, or have everything in SUBFOLDER\SUBFOLDER\ because only half the people who share music use B.
