Nice.

Do anyone have a batch winrar extractor. Just select a folder and it will extract all the archives. is such a utility out there?

Umm, if I got your question correctly, WinRAR does that automatically.

(Open WinRAR, navigate to folder, select folder, select "Extract files" option, it will take a count of all the archives inside)

Are you asking for an equivalent, or asking for something in Windows itself? If so, WinRAR does this. You can just select all the archives you need to extract, right click, and the WinRAR menu would provide you the options - Extract files, Extract all here, Extract each archive to separate folder. Choose your option

Hmm..

Let me explain folks. Err. Say a single file is archived across multiple rar files. like in the case of tv shows. and for a season there will be that many folders as no of episodes.

Anyways to extract em all or one by one, automated?

^ you mean to say a single episode is split in many archives or a single rar file has a season of tv shows with multiple files in it? :S
if it is the first case put all split archives in single folder right click on any of the rar file and extract.
a single file will be created.

choose like the one selected and right click to extract to desired path

One question, are the files for a single episode in a split rar? As in, are the files having extensions like .r01, .r02 and so on, or are all of them .rar? If it is the former, extracting any one file in the sequence will extract all of them.

Coming to the part about having it stored in directories. Simplest solution I can think of is:

1) Go to the parent directory of all the directories. Let's say your directory structure is something like:

Serial Name
|- E01
 |- RAR1
 |- RAR2
 |- RAR3
|- E02
 |- RAR1
 |- RAR2
 |- RAR3
|- E03
 |- RAR1
 |- RAR2
 |- RAR3

and so on.

In this case, go the directory "Serial Name".

2) Do a Windows Search (click on Find, or press F3)

3) Search for ALL files

4) In the search results, select all the RAR files and use the "Extract each archive to separate folder" option
