SubjectFixing rar/7z Reply to this message

Hey, I've had a problem when scanning .rar or .7z files. I've tried a couple of versions, including the latest one and they seem to be unable to fix the filenames inside .rar or .7z files. It detects the wrong named files, and the program takes its time (as if it were actually renaming them) but at the end, no file inside the .rar/.7z file is actually renamed.

Is this a known thing or am I doing something wrong?

The write-operations of rar/7z archives require an external packer.
In settings->compressor you can find the 7z and rar default parameters and external packer names. They are listed there without any path assignment assuming that winrar.exe and 7z.exe are already available through your set %PATH% environment variable.

So either adjust the path there or be sure the executables are available in your Windows %PATH% environment.
