Extract WSJT-X files without running the installer
#1
Hi,
 for a while now I have found that the constant growth in the list of installed version of WSJT-X is out of control in my PC.  Every little update registers a new entry in the My App's section of Windows 10 ... arrgh how do I stop this.

Now the Nulsoft installer that WSJT-X uses does not support an extract files option like a few others do but the good old 7ZIP utility (great at compressing and extracting files, we use it at work [2,000 Pc's] and on my home PC's) will read the installer file as downloaded from the WSJT-X web site and allow you to extract just the folders needed to run a new copy of WSJT-X.

Now I am ready to run the new Q65 mode in the preview release of WSJT-X 2.4

see you on Q65 soon Big Grin

Peter, vk5pj
