Hey, you're famous, Chris http://dottech.org/windows/windows-software-of-the-day/31774/windows-software-of-the-day-may-27-2012/

Wow, very cool. Thanks for letting me know.  :Thmbsup:

RobC:
It depends on how the ZIP file is made. If the ZIP file has a folder in it, that is how it is extracted. That is the way my app works (unless you tell it to extract to a sub folder). I use the command line verson of 7-zip for my app, so if it is making a sub folder if you are not asking it to do so, then there is a folder in the ZIP file.

The DotTech page that was recommending your program said -
"FastUnzip Snack works by becoming your default ZIP/RAR/7z/TAR/CAB handler. When you open one of these files, it automatically extracts it to a folder of the same name, just like every other program does"

MS extract has been creating a sub folder out of thin air for years, and I have been avoiding using MS extract for that reason.
When the Dottech chap appeared to be singing the praises of sub folder creation, that triggered my rant on their page. Then someone mentioned it was from Donation Coders, so I had a mumble here too

Sorry if I misjudged it.

c.gingerich:
No Prob. I get frustrated with software that doesn't act the way I want either... so I write my own! :) If you have tried/use it, hope ya like it. I have some other apps on my site also if you are interested.

Also, I tried to reply a comment on dottech, (the one from Swim) explaining that no registration is used/needed and can just be downloaded and use either here or my site, but it is not posting. Any idea why?

Are you a member.
I just had a look, and I assume the sign up label is top right.
(That is where my Logout label appears)

In the meantime, I will post your paragraph to their page.
