-<WRAP info>The Mixed (Archive as File) option is a special setting that changes the scanning behavior.

+DATs that have ''<romvault forcepacking="fileonly"/>'' in the header will force the **Mixed (Archive as File)** setting unless explicitly overridden by DAT rule.
+</WRAP>
 If a DAT explicitly specifies a forced packing type in its header then that will be used. The **Override DAT** option allows you to override that specification and use your preferred settings instead.
