Originally created by @pnewman8 on GitHub (Jul 14, 2015).

From what I can tell, self extracting zip archives are not supported. I just wanted to check it's not something I am doing wrong.

If I try to open one for reading, I get NotSupportedException: Unknown header: 9460301.

Are there any plans to support them?

Zip exe hasn't been implemented. Just Rar. If you don't need portability then 7zip works.

I personally don't have plans to implement this but it shouldn't be much work as you just look for the exe header and fast forward in the file like Rar probably.

Thanks guys.

I plan to use the framework classes in System.IO.Compression, for self extracting zips only, and continue with SharpCompress for other archive types. I am having to call them via reflection, as we still use Visual Studio 2010 (.NET 4.0). Seems to be working so far.
