The fact that 7-zip does dumb shit with compressed tarballs on Windows is, err, their problem? IIRC, p7zip does it right, and even on Windows, you can cobble something up with 7z's CLI. Some (if not all?) WinRAR versions may also be doing things right (as far as this is concerned, at least...  ).
Otherwise, I guess you just have to live with it and simply do that with the uncompressed tarball you get after your first click. |
Given tarballs aren't natively supported in Windows, it's to be expected things may not work exactly as they do in Linux-land.
I just pointed out that following the instructions exactly as they are worded on the MrPI thread may not work for Windows users (and in general, Windows users are probably the ones who need more handholding).
Lol, if someone can pipe stdout-stdin with 7z CLI in order to skip the intermediate tarball, they can likely figure out what goes where on their own.
