Hi audiofeel,

thx for the answer, with your advice it`s working in IS6.4.0...
-------
But:
I want to use command IsArcExChangeLanguage :
because using different ini-files , I can let translate the messages in different languages while installing...

>> Windows Defender popup :

Solved >> "every pc restart is good" + new GUID > working now

*perhaps it was the security block in the file properties too

Hi Community / Hi Blackfire69,

I have a problem with the names of the files to be extracted.

>> TEST SCRIPT ATTACHED

Description:
In the attached image you can see that something has been selected for installation.
During the installation (extraction), however, a different file from the same archive is displayed.
> But in the end the correct file has been extracted.

I hope, someone can help here.
kind regards
Nordi

Hi Community / Hi Blackfire69,

I have a second problem with ISArcExAddDisksEx and the shown sizes of the files to be extracted.

>> TEST SCRIPT : ONE POST ABOVE

Description:
In the attached image you can see :

(Note: three different bf-files, not single one)

I hope, someone can help here.

What is the packaging tool for "ISArcEx"? I need a tool that can package into .bin format. Can anyone recommend one?

Uhhhh, there's only one. FreeArc.

is there any way to unpack multiple archives at once (in parallel) using this?

Think of it like playing music. You can’t play two different songs at the same time using a single player - one has to wait. If you want parallel playback, you need two separate players.
It’s the same here: the unpacking engine works as a single "player". It processes one archive at a time. To unpack multiple archives in parallel, you would need multiple independent instances/processes doing the work simultaneously.
In the context of Inno Setup (and this library), that’s not supported - there’s effectively only one unpacking pipeline, so everything runs sequentially.

i might have a clanky workaround that is to unpack the the big file using the installer and running a batch script on the background to unpack the other small archives. not tested but im pretty sure it will get the job done.

p.s. but you need to understand that the processor load is controlled manually. I might update this in the future. (queue).
