A self-extracting archive (SFX or SEA) is a computer executable program which combines compressed data in an archive file with machine-executable code to extract the information. Running on a compatible operating system, it does not need a suitable extractor in the target computer to extract the data.

CABARC.EXE and EXTRACT.EXE (tools from Microsoft Cabinet SDK [2]) as well as lcab [3] and cabextract [4] (third-party open-source tools) work this way. EXPAND.EXE, only since version 6 (which is included from Windows Vista to above) can extract files to their paths. The previous versions don't do it.
PeaZip allows users to run extracting and archiving operations automatically if invoked from the command line; the GUI front-end can export the command. It can also create, edit and restore an archive's layout for speeding up archiving or backup operation's definition.
IExpress (IEXPRESS.EXE) can be used for distributing self-contained installation packages (INF-based setup executables) to multiple local or remote Windows computers.It creates a self-extracting executable (.EXE) or a compressed Cabinet file using either the provided front end interface (IExpress Wizard), or a custom Self Extraction Directive (SED) file.

Some of the tools included in The Sleuth Kit include: ils lists all metadata entries, such as an Inode. blkls displays data blocks within a file system (formerly called dls). fls lists allocated and unallocated file names within a file system. fsstat displays file system statistical information about an image or storage medium.
