Updated

Version 3.1 Updated 7za to version 1805. Updated the icon of the sfx module from WinRAR 5.60. Added a theme in the Themes folder (the previous default theme of WinRAR). If you copy the file rar.reg in the setup folder, the old default theme will be applied. Rewritten the creation of the sfx config file: now the parameters are dynamically created when corresponding options are used (previously all parameters where added even if not used). If you embed theme(s) and create an AddOn, the sfx in the SVCPACK AddOn will be copied in a temp folder then executed at RunOnce (this way you can remove the install media after the install is finished). You can now install WinRAR 32 bits on a 64 bits Windows.
