    How to add 7-ZIP to the WD.ENV file

    I have seen a few previous threads on this topic - but no solution...

     

    Has anybody successfully gotten 7-ZIP to work with AutoCAD Electrical (esp. 2010)? I have tried a couple of things unsuccessfully:

    WD_ZIP,c:/program files/7-Zip/7z.exe, command line version

    WD_ZIP,c:/program files/7-Zip/7zFM.exe, main file manager version

    If so - what does the line in the WD.ENV file look like?

     

    Please help!!

    Please use plain text.

    WnZIP and WinRAR working correctly with AutoCAD Electrical 2012.

    But I have only 7-ZIP.

    And have the same problem.

    I do not know how to specify a string WD_ZIP in WD.ENV for 7-ZIP :smileysad:

    WD_ZIP,c:/program files/7-Zip/7z.exe - does not work!!!

     

    Please help!!!

    Ruslan and others,

     

    Making copy of 7z.exe as rar.exe and using “WD_ZIP, c:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\rar.exe” does the trick...

    That shouldn't work...

     

    But somehow it does.  Thanks!
