Thanks a lot

As per my previous mail i used following command to suppressed Overwritten message.
set COPYCMD=/-Y

But i am not able to suppressed Overwritten message.
Is any another way to do the same.

thanks in advanced

@echo off

setlocal enabledelayedexpansion

set SOURCE_DIR=C:\Source
set DEST_DIR=C:\Destination
set FILENAMES_TO_COPY=*.7z *.zip
set COPYCMD=/-Y
ECHO Searching for RAR and ZIP files to recompress into 7zip archives.
for /R “%SOURCE_DIR%” %%F IN (%FILENAMES_TO_COPY%) do (
ECHO File %%F
IF NOT EXIST “%%~nF.zip ” (
ECHO in 7z %%F
REM Extract…
“C:\Program Files\7-Zip \7z” x “%%F” -o”%%F contents”
REM Does the directory exist? has 7zip created it correctly?
IF EXIST “%%F contents” (
REM Change directory, create 7zip of contents of directory…
CD “%%F contents”
“C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z” a -tzip “../%%~nF.zip ” * -mx=9
REM CD ..

REM Delete the old files
DEL “%%F” /F /Q
RMDIR “%%F contents” /S /Q
ECHO Recompressed %%F to %%~nF.zip and deleted %%F.
)
)
)

for /R “%SOURCE_DIR%” %%F IN (%FILENAMES_TO_COPY%) do (
IF EXIST “%%~nF.zip ” (
ECHO in zip %%~nF
set FILE_DIR=%%~dpF
set FILE_INTERMEDIATE_DIR=!FILE_DIR:%SOURCE_DIR%=!
“C:\Program Files\7-Zip \7z” x “%%~nF.zip ” -o”%DEST_DIR%!FILE_INTERMEDIATE_DIR!”

)
)

Now the script can: Check for zip/rar files, decompress, recompress into 7z, compare, delete the larger file, error check if the archive is corrupt, and output all actions into a log file. It does pretty much everything that you mentioned was missing, besides counting the number of files converted. I did not add this because I felt it was kind of redundant, the user should know how many files he/she is attempting to convert. Besides, the log will display ERROR if contents did not extract. Maybe I’ll add it in the future if I’m bored…

I made sure to give credit to Andrew for this wonderful script, it has helped me in so many ways.

I believe your answer is here. Its a matter of changing one small part to compress directories rather than files. http://commandwindows.com/batchfiles-iterating.htm

I cannot find the information that a need to do this, I hope you can help me with this, thanks a lot.

Hope that features like these will soon be added to 7-zip’s shell extension.

Thanks a lot!
