title: How to create self-extracting RAR archive not showing anything on execution?
body: <p>I am trying to create a self-extracting archive that extracts to "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop" with WinRar. However, when I run it, it extracts to the SFX's current directory, not my desktop. Does the <em>path to extract</em> option work at all?</p>
  
  <p>I'm using the 32-bit command line module.</p>
  
  <p>I also checked the 'hide all' box for silent mode which appears to do absolutely nothing and the command prompt window still appears with showing information on what is extracted.</p>
  
  <p>I want that SFX archive extracts the .exe and the folder contained in the SFX file to the desktop without any messages popping up.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions?</p>
