I am trying to create a winrar self-extracting archive with a custom icon on the command line.
It is all going well so far, except the custom icon is not working. Whenever I build the archive the icon used is the default winrar icon.
If I create the SFX using the SFX dialog, then it works fine. This says to me that there is nothing wrong with the icon.
The command I am using is:

The text file Rar.txt in program files folder of WinRAR contains all commands and switches supported by console version Rar.exe. Running Rar.exe without any parameter lists also all of them with a brief description.
The commands and switches supported by WinRAR.exe are explained in help of WinRAR, open on help tab Contents the item Command line mode.
There are a few differences in list of supported switches between console and GUI version. One of those few differences is no support by console version for SFX icon. I suppose, the reason is the need of a Microsoft library function not (easily) available for a console application.
You can use WinRAR.exe instead of Rar.exe even when running it from within a batch file. Use additionally the switches-ibck and -inul to run WinRAR.exe in background without displaying an error message on failure. Switch -y might be also useful.
For a workaround
Email tarantula keygens. You can also make it work using only one command but calling winrar instead of rar. And no, i don't know why the console version does not include the icon.
