I have Opus (10.0.0.2 x64) with the rar plugin enabled. Rar files open in a new folder as designed. If I double-click to launch them I get:
An error occurred reading archive 'test.txt': (I'm using the test rar file you put in the forum for another issue--but all rar files act like this)
The system cannot find the path specified. (3)
If I right-click and use "open with" the files launch fine. Process Monitor shows that on double-click Opus is attempting to launch the file from it's "virtual" path
E:\Downloads\test_2.rar\test.txt as opposed to the temp path C:\Users\sf\AppData\Local\Temp\dperm-ba5922020541182-0.dop\test.txt.
All file and folders has "e:\Program Files\GPSoftware\Directory Opus\dopusrt.exe" /CMD Copy FILE "{filepath$}" MAKELINK=shortcut TO /Recent for RecentX.
Archives and .rar has double-click defined as Go.
"C:\Program Files\GPSoftware\Directory Opus\dopusrt.exe" /CMD Copy FILE "{filepath$}" MAKELINK=shortcut TO /Recent
Go
was the culprit. Crossposted in the Recentx discussion in tutorials--hopefully someone will have a fix. I'm going to leave it on since I can still open files from the context menu.
Is the go command as stated in the HOW TO: Make RAR files open in Opus on double-click FAQ
Opening RARs within Opus
You probably don't want to open new windows (or tabs) when you double-click RAR files inside of Opus. If that is the case, go to the Events tab and edit the Left double-click event. This event only applies inside of Opus and overrides what happens when you double-click RAR files. If it is left empty then the open action will be run instead.
not needed in 10? It seem to work fine for me without it.
Correct, Opus 10 no longer requires you to add the Go command (it's added to the Archives file type group automatically, and RAR is automatically added to that group). I've updated the FAQ.
