[Windows] Drag-and-drop extraction first extracts to system TEMP folder before copying to destination? #361

Closed scottmudge closed 6 months ago

scottmudge commented 6 months ago

The standard "Extract" button/action directly extracts data to the target location, which is the expected behavior.

But when using drag-and-drop extraction (FROM 7zip TO a target directory), 7zip-zstd will first extract the data to the system TEMP folder before copying it to the target directory.

It does work, but it causes excess wear and tear on the system drive, if the target directory is a different location (and the extracted data is large). The expected behavior is the data is extracted directly to the target directory.

This should be fixed in 7-Zip ... not in my version.
