I don't think it's possible to do that, not using winrar anyway. Try seeing what google comes up with about it, but I wouldn't try persisting with winrar because it just doesn't do what you want it to.

i think i know what you can do - you don't need to extract any files because windows will extract the exse for you anyway (at least should) that has what windows has done for me... so i would just run the exe and windows should extract the exe and then grab the files and it should work for you.

good luck

I dont think the way you are trying to do things, is going to work.

There's a pretty specific method for upgrading, which includes uninstalling the hardware & software, rebooting etc..
