Hi,

I have a bunch of Folders that contain files. I need to compress all folders into separate RAR files, using the same name as each folder.

So, if a folder is called 123454ABC, I need the contents of that folder to compress and be named 12345ABC.RAR.

Can anyone help with how to do this recursively, please.

I amd using WINRAR 3.80 registered.

Thanks in advance.

AFAIK, there Is no automatic way to do it.

You'd probably need to write a script or batch file and run it in command line mode.
