Extract archives?

#1 Post by stuffdone2 » 2023-11-27 16:27

I have a number of sites and when I back up I download a zip file to be extracted.

I have become disappointed with WsFTP for other reasons but in that client I could just right click and my 7Zip would let me extract the file right there. A simple time saver.

Is there a similar option in FileZilla to just choose zip file and extract it right in the local pane? Can I set a default archive program withing zilla?

If not I need seek elsewhere or stick with what I have because I am not going to have to use multiple programs to accomplish this task.

Thanks.

No.

No.


However, if you have associated the ZIP extension with 7-Zip in your OS, you can use right-click, Open and then extract it from within 7-Zip's File Manager.
