-t (set Type of archive) switch.

Specifies the type of archive.

• ISupportSwitchArchiveType

-an (Disable parsing of archive_name) switch.

Disables parsing of the archive_name field on the command line. This switch must be used with the -ai (Include archives) switch. If you use a file list for your archives, you specify it with the -ai switch, so you need to disable parsing of archive_name field from command line.

Specifies which filenames or wildcard-names must be excluded from the operation. Multiple exclude switches are supported.

• ISupportSwitchExcludeFilenames
• SwitchExcludeFilenamesBuilder
• SwitchExcludeFilenameCollection

Enables the mode that allows to use fully qualified file paths in archives. If -spf switch is not specified, 7-Zip reduces file paths to relative paths when it adds files to archive, and 7-Zip converts paths to relative paths when you extract archive. If -spf switch is specified, 7-Zip doesn't try to process or convert paths.

• ISupportSwitchFullyQualifiedFilePaths
• SwitchFullyQualifiedFilePathsBuilder

-sns (Store NTFS alternate Streams) switch.

If -sns mode is enabled, 7-Zip processes NTFS Alternate Data Streams for files and folders. Current version of 7-Zip can store NTFS alternate streams only to WIM archives. Note: 7-Zip can't include alternate streams to archives on 32-bit Windows XP and older systems.

• ISupportSwitchNtfsAlternateStreams
• SwitchNtfsAlternateStreamsBuilder

-sni (Store NT security information) switch.

Use this switch to store and restore NT (NTFS) security information for files and directories. Note that only NTFS file system supports that feature. Current version of 7-Zip can store NT security information only to WIM archives.

• ISupportSwitchNtSecurityInformation
• SwitchNtSecurityInformationBuilder

-o (set Output directory) switch.

Specifies a destination directory where files are to be extracted. This switch can be used only with extraction commands.

• ISupportSwitchOutputDirectory

Specifies the method of treating wildcards and filenames on the command line.

• ISupportSwitchRecurseSubdirectories
• SwitchRecurseSubdirectoriesBuilder

-sfx (Create SFX archive) switch.

Specifies the SFX module that will be combined with the archive. This module must be placed in the same directory as the 7z.exe. If {SFX_Module} is not assigned, 7-Zip will use standard console SFX module 7zCon.sfx.

• ISupportSwitchSelfExtractingArchive
• SwitchSelfExtractingArchiveBuilder

-scrc (Set hash function) switch.

Sets hash function for "extract" and "hash" commands.

• ISupportSwitchSetHashFunction
• SwitchSetHashFunctionBuilder

-stl (Set archive time-stamp from the most recently modified file) switch.

If -stl switch is specified, 7-Zip sets time-stamp for archive file as time-stamp from the most recently modified file in that archive.

• ISupportSwitchTimestampFromMostRecentFile
• SwitchSetTimestampFromMostRecentFileBuilder

-slt (Show technical information) switch.

Sets technical mode for l (List) command.

• ISupportSwitchShowTechnicalInformation
• SwitchShowTechnicalInformationBuilder

-u (Update options) switch.

Specifies how to update files in an archive and (or) how to create new archives.

• SwitchUpdateOptionsBuilder

-v (Create Volumes) switch.

Specifies volume sizes.

• ISupportSwitchVolume

-w (set Working directory) switch.

Sets the working directory for the temporary base archive. By default, 7-Zip builds a new base archive file in the same directory as the old base archive file. By specifying this switch, you can set the working directory where the temporary base archive file will be built. After the temporary base archive file is built, it is copied over the original archive; then, the temporary file is deleted.
