The Unarchiver

Replacement for the built-in Archive Utility.

The UnarchiverOverview

The Unarchiver is a much more capable replacement for "Archive Utility.app", the built-in archive unpacker program in OS X.

The Unarchiver is designed to handle many more formats than Archive Utility, and to better fit in with the design of the Finder. It can also handle filenames in foreign character sets, created with non-English versions of other operating systems. Supported file formats include Zip, Tar-GZip, Tar-BZip2, Rar, 7-zip, LhA, StuffIt and many other more or less obscure formats. It is localized into Japanese, German, Spanish, French, Portugese and Russian.

NEW

Note: Now requires a 64-bit Intel processor.

  • Fixed crash on OS X 10.9 and earlier.
  • Fixed crash on OS X 10.11.
  • Fixed an issue that made unpacked application not work.
  • Removed file type selector from the App Store version, as Apple broke it and there is no way to get it back to working. Apple does not allow me to tell anybody this in the actual app, though.
  • Made the normal non-App Store version not be sandboxed anymore to deal with these problems. It also now tries to update via Sparkle. This should mean that most people will not need to use the legacy version any longer to get decent functionality. (Legacy version does not use Sparkle.)
  • Better support for Zip, 7z, gzip, and NSIS files.
  • Bugfixes for pax and ARJ.
  • Fixes for a few crashing bugs.
  • Added Hungarian translation.
  • Other translation fixes.
