< p > 7-Zip needs to be installed in two parts.< / p >
First, the standalone < code > 7zr.exe< / code > binary should be downloaded.
This can stay in the Downloads directory as it will only be needed once.< / p >
< p > Second, the < em > 64-bit Windows x64< / em > installer (< code > .exe< / code > ) should be downloaded.
This should be extracted using the previous standalone executable.< / p >

cd %USERPROFILE%\opt\7zip
%USERPROFILE%\Downloads\7zr.exe x %USERPROFILE%\Downloads\7z2201-x64.exe< / code > < / pre >
< p > The 7zip path can then be added to the < code > %PATH%< / code > environment variable.< / p >
