Unarchiver doesn't remember when a folder has been OK'd as a destination. #830

The dialog points to the folder the archive is in, asks if that's where I want 
the result, and states that I'll only have to do this once for this folder.  
Sadly, that's not true.  It asks the same question time after time.

This is a somewhat odd bug I have never been able to track down because it 
happens rarely and never for me, but running "defaults delete cx.c3.unarchiver" 
seems to fix it.

Hmmm, ran that in Terminal (I'm assuming that's where you meant it to run) and 
got this:
defaults delete cx.c3.unarchiver
2015-06-01 08:28:41.699 defaults[14304:5124683] 
Domain (cx.c3.unarchiver) not found.
Defaults have not been changed.

This behavior seems to have appeared when I first started running 10.10.3 beta 
and has continued through 10.10.3 and 10.10.4 beta 4.  I downloaded The 
Archiver from the Mac App Store in Aug 2013. I just used CleanApp to remove The 
Unarchiver, its preferences, and a folder named cx.c3.unarchiver, then 
reinstalled it and tested its behavior.  No change.

Is it still asking this if you use the exact same folder?

Yes, the same folder.  When I need to unarchive one of my books, I
drag/drop it into a "to be added to Calibre" folder.  When I unarchive it I
indicate that the folder the archive is in is the folder I want the result
to be in.  It asks every time.  After I trashed the app and the items
mentioned above and unzipped a fresh copy of the app., it asked, didn't
move the archive to the trash after unarchiving it, and then when I trashed
the book and double clicked the archive again, it asked again and then
moved the archive to the trash after unarchiving it.  Running 10.10.4 beta
4 from a 120 GB SSD on a Mac-mini mid 2011 with 8 GB ram.

Best regards, Russ

Oh, I mad a mistake earlier, it's "defaults delete cx.c3.theunarchiver" for the 
command. Try that again.
