Command Line Interface

IZArc can perform certain operations directly from the command line.

There is "Command line Add-On" that can be used for more detailed command line operations.

You can download it from IZArc main site: http://www.izarc.org

You can use the following switches to perform certain operations:

·	-a (or /a) FileName1.ext;FileName2.ext

·	-ad (or /ad) FileName1.ext;FileName2.ext

·	-e (or /e) [Extracting Folder] FileName1.ext;FileName2.ext

·	-ef (or /ef) [Extracting Folder] FileName1.ext;FileName2.ext

·	-cv (or /cv) FileName.ext

·	-s (or /s) FileName.ext

"FileName.ext" must include the full path and the filename (C:\Work\FileName.ext)

For example: IZArc C:\Work\Demo.zip

Adding files to an archive with options:

Extracting an archive:

·	IZArc -e [Extracting Folder] FileName.ext (;FileName4.ext;FileName3.ext ..)

·	[Extracting Folder] - Full Path to the extracting folder

·	IZArc -s FileName.ext

For Example IZArc -s C:\Work\Demo.zip

Test an archive:

·	IZArc -t FileName.ext

For Example IZArc -t C:\Work\Demo.zip
