Delete rar part files directly after unraring
« on: January 03, 2007, 06:13:24 PM »
I'd like to live on the edge of free disk-space... this means I manually have to delete every rar-part file already unpacked; Could this be made into an option?

Am I missing something?  This option is already under Un-Rar options: delete archives after successful unraring.

I don't know about alt.binz, but with winrar, when I use the explorer-menu 'extract here' option, I can delete all files already processed.
This can be handy when the drive is almost full, because the deleted rars will free up just enough disc-space to let unrarring succeed.

That is ridiculous...
