What it looks like when Archive Manager ask me a password (72.38 KB, image/png) 2007-01-15 08:34 UTC, Jonathan Métillon	Details

Description Jonathan Métillon 2007-01-15 08:29:52 UTC

Hi,

I've had to deflate tenth of archives at the same time. I select all of them and with right click I select Extract Here.

Some archives asked me for a password. But I didn't know what archives was concerned when the Password box appeared: the main window showing the progress of the inflation just disappear. And the box just says Password. So I don't know what archive was the password for. I had to cancel and extract each archive on by one.

Later I found that if I press OK without giving a password, Archive Manager will try again and show the extract progress window again, giving me a tip of what archive it is trying to read for a few second then password box will pop up again.

Still, this is not friendly at all.
