No, it depends on what option you use on WinRar or 7zip but the latter is faster in terms of archiving and extraction speed.You know it actually depends on what zip extractor some one uses. Usually most mods are done so that all you do is extract file. But do know that some extractors extract stuff in its own folder. RAR I think did this. Hence why I use 7zip b/c it simple extracts data as is. This is one of the bigger issues that most ppl who don't have common knowledge on. You would be shocked how many ppl in support show their problem and you find out that they unzipped it incorrectly. Its a ton of ppl...
- If you select "Extract files..." then it will extract it into a new folder with the name of the archive by default.
- If you select "Extract here" then it will extract it directly.
Your average user is probably going to manually open the archive, DragNDrop the contents, which would extract the files to a temp folder and then move it to the actual location. (This is a slower method.)
