Silent mode is really not working and i keep getting prompted?

Open LusKrew opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

I have a large dataset of different installers, and i wanted to use the Uniextract2 to unpack as many PE files as possible, this is How i am doing it so please tell me if I'm doing it wrong :

I wrote a batch script that adds all the files in the directory to the batch using the /batch option (i tried to add the directory entirely as input but couldn't any option in the UniExtract2 to do so)

after adding them all i open the UniExtract2 and turn on the silent mode and click on batch, the problem is i still get a lot of different pop ups like which game installer to choose and other pop ups like replace all files or not and stuff like that a lot of times quickbms.exe crashes too, so much so that i had to write a Autoit script to just click close the program when the crash message shows up and had to write another autoit script to click cancel whenever the message about game installer shows up. i also have to say that some of the files might not be installers, there are just a large number of executables that most of them are installers but some are not and i cannot know in advance which of them isn't.

now am i doing this right? i just want to unpack as many PE files as possible without getting bothered by messages, its a large dataset and i need to keep it running for a long time, is there any better approach for doing this?

I have a similar issue, I don't really mind the pop-ups etc. but I think there needs to be a way to run the program non-blocking. What about a commandline mode that errors on questions? Then as least you can start using UniExtractor in a pipeline.
