Re: XYplorer stops responding when extracting using WinRAR
The dialog is modal but not topmost. You have to close it to continue with the parent window (XYplorer). If anything, this looks more like a WinRAR bug to me.

Re: XYplorer stops responding when extracting using WinRAR
Tested using Custom File Associations, the dialog box is not modal
"test" *>run """D:\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe"" x -o+ ""<curitem>"" ""E:\Download\""";
After comparison, the command lines are consistent,Does the built-in menu have a special calling method that results in a modal dialog box?

Re: XYplorer stops responding when extracting using WinRAR
Confirmed.
But I don't see why this is a problem.

Re: XYplorer stops responding when extracting using WinRAR
When extracting large files (>70GB) on slow HDD,You need to wait a long time for the extraction to complete before you can use XYplorer

Re: XYplorer stops responding when extracting using WinRAR
Only when you ignore the password input. But then you cannot extract.

Re: XYplorer stops responding when extracting using WinRAR
Does this mean that fixing this issue will result in the inability to extract encrypted files?
Maybe add a submenu dedicated to extracting encrypted files?
Modal dialog seems to be the solution for extracting multiple files?
WinRAR has a "Wait if other WinRAR copies are active" function, but I didn't find the corresponding command line.

Re: XYplorer stops responding when extracting using WinRAR
Okay, I made some tests and I agree. Next version will call it non-modally.

Re: XYplorer stops responding when extracting using WinRAR
This change seems to have had an effect on SC zip_extract too, recently some of my scripts suddenly started failing, and after troubleshooting, it seems that the script is continuing now, instead of waiting for extraction to complete. I guess I could convert them over to use SC run instead, but before I do that, I thought I would check with you.

Re: XYplorer stops responding when extracting using WinRAR
Oh yeah. Wait for the next beta. Your scripts will work again without any changes.
