@Mokubai since research is not a must-have requirement, the mod should not have closed the question in the first place. "None of the issues anyone has raised have been addressed by you": yes, the concerns were addressed: we clarified it's neither an app request nor a script request. We also clarified that research is not a must-have requirement.

@Mokubai so if it's not a must-have requirements, then why is the question closed?

@Giacomo1968 I've posted ~600 questions on main SU, and ~10 questions on Meta SU about my questions getting closed over the past 9 years. Not that pushy IMHO. Anyway, the OP identity shouldn't impact the question treatment.

@Mokubai "There is absolutely no information on what you have tried": showing research is not a requirement according to meta.superuser.com/q/7829/116475

@DavidPostill I was mentioning superuser.com/a/726429/116475 to show that batch processing doesn't imply scripting (in this case, testing several zip files at once). Many questions ask for how to do some actions that may be scriptable but the OP doesn't provide any script attempts.

@DavidPostill Batch processing doesn't imply scripting e.g. superuser.com/a/726429/116475, so I don't understand why you think it's a script request. Also, plenty of answers on SU are scripts, so I don't understand why you say we don't write scripts. "Superusers" write scripts.

@DavidPostill what's left to interpretation in "How can I remove the password on several RAR files at once?"

@Giacomo1968 just trying to understand the close reason.

@Giacomo1968 so we're both confused as to what is on-topic here.

@Giacomo1968 Many non-closed questions here ask to achieve some actions without specifying which program they want to use, so it is far from an exception. Anyway, if I change my question to "How can I remove the password on several RAR files at once with WinRAR?", is that on-topic?

@Giacomo1968 "Please don’t take post closing so personally" I'm not, why do you think that? ; "perhaps learn something from the experience" hence this meta Q, but I'm not getting clear answers: at first, it's a dupe, then lack of research, then a scripting request, then a software request etc. etc.; "it seems like this isn’t the first time someone is stating your posts are off-topic" not surprising since I asked >5k Qs. ; "That question is from Dec 31, 2012" ok here's a recent one: superuser.com/q/1685218/116475

@Giacomo1968 Many questions on SU don't specify which programs to use e.g. superuser.com/q/526275/116475

@Giacomo1968 Batch processing doesn't imply scripting e.g. superuser.com/a/726429/116475.

@DavidPostil so it has nothing to do with a dupe?

@DavidPostill "Why are you writing this question making it unclear it was your question that was closed?" not making things personal.

@DanielB but if you want correct answers from ChatGPT, you need ChatGPT + a human to check the answer.

@JoepvanSteen unfriendly in general, not just noobs.
