- hypercube33 1y agoI don't think 7zip really can see into a lot of janky MSI files to get the actual installed content, can it?...it can technically break open NSIS files and get the source but that is disabled in code after 15.05 (GitHub has a mod to renable source extraction fyi) and yes self extracting exe files.
- rmast 1y agoMy experience with 7zip has been that it can read the tables and cab files from MSI files, but when you go to extract the contents you just get the raw files without the directory restructure associated with the MSI file (and the names of the extracted files can also have issues).
