Description

The Unarchiver is a small and easy to use program that can unarchive many different kinds of archive files. It will open common formats such as Zip, RAR (including v5), 7-zip, Tar, Gzip and Bzip2. It will also open many older formats, such as StuffIt, DiskDoubler, LZH, ARJ and ARC. It will even open other kinds of files, like ISO and BIN disc images, some Windows .EXE installers. The list is actually much longer - see the program homepage for the full list.

The Unarchiver also tries to detect and correctly handle the filename encoding in the archives it opens, allowing you to open files from every part of the world without getting garbled filenames.

The Unarchiver aims to be the only unarchiving program you will ever need, and to stay out of your way.

Also, if you need to open archives on your iPad or iPhone, look for "Archives" on the App Store, or go to https://theunarchiver.com/archives. It is based on The Unarchiver, and lets you easily handle Archives on iOS!

Version 4.1.0

The Unarchiver goes dark. We adopted the new Mojave Dark Mode so your archive management could become much more stylish.

Fixed:
• Extraction speed for most archives is now much better
• The Unarchiver is not going to confuse separate archives with similar names and multipart archives anymore
• Direct warc.gz extraction is now supported along with a fix for some specific warc archives. Thanks, tsudoko
• Some specific 7-Zip archives are now handled correctly. Thanks @pavel_urusov
• RAR self-extracting archives are now handled correctly
• Large zip files extraction problem fixed
• Italian localization fixed

Good app

Would give a 5/5 if it gave me an ETA :)

Fine, until you go over 4GB

I've used this app for quite a while, and it does a great job at handling multiple file types.

Unfortunately, with zip files over 4GB it complains that the file is "incomplete", and then only extracts 4GB - not much use when you're trying to extract large backup file.

Password = crash

Strangely enough, this ‘update’ still crashes incessantly when I try to put in a password. It works fine for un-protected files but if there is a password, there is 100% a crash. No thanks
