Extract archives in monitored folders, even moving them elsewhere, with ExtractNow
ExtractNow is a free and efficient application that will let you extract multiple archives easily. You can drag and drop them into the program’s window, or right-click on them in Windows Explorer. ExtractNow supports ZIP, RAR and some more formats. It can also monitor one or more folders and unzip the archives as soon as they appear on those folders.
Especially if you download archives all the time in one or more folders, you will find ExtractNow a great utility that will save you a lot of trouble. Just keep downloading and ExtractNow will monitor your download folders, extract each archive in a separate folder automatically, and finally open the folders of the extracted archives to let you enjoy the crop.
The program can be annoying, though, since it pops up balloon tips all the time at the system tray, even when no extraction occurs, just because a file was dropped on a monitored folder, or deleted, etc.
