NAME
innoextract - tool to extract installers created by Inno Setup
SYNOPSIS
innoextract [--extract] [--lowercase] [options] installers ...
innoextract --list [options] installers ...
innoextract --test [options] installers ...
DESCRIPTION
innoextract is a tool that can extract installer executables created by Inno Setup.
innoextract will extract files from installers specified on the command line.
To extract a multi-part installer with external data files, only the executable (.exe) file needs to be
given as an argument to innoextract.
OPTIONS SUMMARY
Here is a short summary of the options available in innoextract. Please refer to the detailed
documentation below for a complete description.
Generic options:
-h --help Show supported options
-v --version Print version information
--license Show license information
Actions:
-t --test Only verify checksums, don't write anything
-e --extract Extract files (default action)
-l --list Only list files, don't write anything
Modifiers:
--dump Dump contents without converting filenames
-L --lowercase Convert extracted filenames to lower-case
--language LANG Extract files for the given language
-T --timestamps TZ Timezone for file times or "local" or "none"
-d --output-dir DIR Extract files into the given directory
Display options:
-q --quiet Output less information
-s --silent Output only error/warning information
-c --color[=ENABLE] Enable/disable color output
-p --progress[=ENABLE] Enable/disable the progress bar
OPTIONS
-c, --color[=ENABLE]
By default innoextract will try to detect if the terminal supports shell escape codes and enable
or disable color output accordingly. Pass 1 or true to --color to force color output. Pass 0 or
false to never output color codes.
--dump Don't convert Windows paths to UNIX paths and don't substitute variables in paths.
-e, --extract
Extract all files to the current directory. This action is enabled by default, unless either
--list or --extract is specified. You may only specify one of --extract and --test.
-h, --help
Show a list of the supported options.
--language LANG
Extract only language-independent files and files for the given language. By default all files are
extracted.
--license
Show license information.
-l, --list
List files contained in the installer but don't extract anything.
This option can be combined with --silent to print only the names of the contained files (one per
line) without additional syntax that would make consumption by other scripts harder.
The --list option can be combined with --test or --extract to display the names of the files as
they are extracted even with --silent.
-L, --lowercase
Convert filenames stored in the installer to lower-case before extracting.
-d, --output-dir DIR
Extract all files into the given directory. By default, innoextract will extract all files to the
current directory.
If the specified directory does not exist, it will be created. However, the parent directory must
exist or extracting will fail.
-p, --progress[=ENABLE]
By default innoextract will try to detect if the terminal supports shell escape codes and enable
or disable progress bar output accordingly. Pass 1 or true to --progress to force progress bar
output. Pass 0 or false to never show a progress bar.
-q, --quiet
Less verbose output.
-s, --silent
Don't output anything except errors and warnings unless explicitely requested.
This option can be combined with --list to print only the names of the contained files (one per
line) without additional syntax that would make consumption by other scripts harder.
-t, --test
Test archive integrity but don't write any output files. You may only specify one of --extract and
--test.
-T, --timestamps TZ
Inno Setup installers can contain timestamps in both UTC and 'local' timezones.
The --timestamps option specifies what timezone should be used to adjust these 'local' file times.
Valid values are those accepted by tzset in the TZ environment variable, except with the direction
of the time offset reversed: both -T CET and -T GMT+1 will (when DST is in effect) give the same
result.
Besides timezones, two special values are accepted:
"none" Don't preserve file times for extracted files, both for UTC and 'local' timestamps.
The file times wil be left the way the OS set them when creating the output files.
"local" Use the system timezone for 'local' timestamps. This is the normal Inno Setup behavior,
and can be used together with the TZ environment variable.
The default value for this option is UTC, causing innoextract to not adjust 'local' file times.
File times marked as UTC in the Inno Setup file will never be adjusted no matter what --timestamps
is set to.
-v, --version
Print the innoextract version number and supported Inno Setup versions.
If combined with the --silent option, only the version number is printed. Otherwise, the output
will contain the name (innoextract) followed by the version number on the first line, and, unless
the --quiet options is specified, the range of suuported Inno Setup installer versions on the
second line.
EXIT VALUES
0 Success
1 Syntax or usage error
2+ Broken or unsupported setup file, or input/output error
LIMITATIONS
innoextract currently only supports extracting all the data. There is no support for extracting
individual files or components and limited support for extracting language-specific files.
Included scripts and checks are not executed.
The mapping from Inno Setup variables like the application directory to subdirectories is hard-coded.
innoextract does not check if an installer includes multiple files with the same name and will
continually overwrite the destination file when extracting.
Names for data slice/disk files in multi-file installers must follow the standard naming scheme.
Encrypted installers are not supported.
