Some cleanup + behaviour improvements - code smell

Code smell atm, duplicated code, needs improvement
Will now appear on status bar if unarchiving a file, disappear on completion
Now shows preferences window when in hide in dock mode (if opening app without a file)
Currently wont close the app if in hidedock mode and user closes the window. -- Not sure about this behaviour. Should probably close
Will unarchive files if the app is already open (loose testing works, but needs proper testing)
