Script to unrar… rar files. no kidding.

I’m lazy as fuck so I created a script that unrars rar files and throws those rar files away afterwards, leaving just the directory and the extracted file!

Oh, and the NFO file – I wonder where this might come in handy…

Script does no error checking or there is no warranty that the archive files are left intact when something goes wrong. You know … lazy as fuck :p

 
setlocal
 
set path="C:\Program Files\WinRAR\";%path%
 
for /F %%i in ('dir /s/b *.rar') do call :do_extract "%%i"
 
:eof
echo done!
goto end
pause
 
:do_extract
echo %1
 
mkdir %~1.extracted
pushd %~1.extracted
 
unrar e %1
 
del /q /f "..\*.r??"
del /q /f "..\*.sfv"
del /q /f "..\.message"
rmdir /q "..\_COMPLETE_-~1"
del /s /q /f "..\sample"
rmdir /q "..\Sample"
 
move * ..
 
popd
 
rmdir /q "%~1.extracted"
 
:end
