Post: How to use packzip + offzip anywhere
02-19-2011, 06:46 AM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This is a very simple little trick, which I've found has saved me time and effort. It will allow you to type packzip or offzip in command prompt anywhere without having to have either of them in the same folder.

Steps:
1. Make a folder on the root of C:\ called "offzip"

2. Then you're going to need to go to System Properties. In Vista, you right click on My Computer and go to Properties, then click Advanced System Settings on the side. I don't know about XP/7.

3. Click on the button Labeled "Environment Variables..."

4. In the bottom box, find the entry called "path"

5. Click edit, then go all the way to the end

6. Add ";C:\offzip" WITHOUT the quotes. It is important you DO NOT remove anything in path, otherwise things may not work properly with your Windows

7. Reboot PC

8. Open up a fresh command prompt and type offzip. If you did it right, then it should come up as a valid command and you should see the usage for offzip
