Last, inspired by Archives for iOS, Archive Browser for OS X is a paid version of The Unarchiver with support for browsing and previews before extraction. I have found Archives to be particularly useful in previewing files from Mail or Safari. The app lets you look inside archives and preview files before extracting them you can open a file in other apps that support the format using Open In, you can save images to the Camera Roll, and check out advanced information for each file. Called Archives, it is based on The Unarchiver, which means you’ll get support for a plethora of formats. Initially buggy, Dag has been busy improving it and making it more reliable on iOS 6. Unarchive the_file to Original with deleting Originalĭeveloper Dag Agren has also released a paid iOS app for The Unarchiver. Here’s a sample extraction script for the file currently selected in Finder: tell application "Finder" More importantly, you’ll be able to extend The Unarchiver and make it communicate with other apps installed on your Mac (an example: automate downloads with Transmit and extract with The Unarchiver in AppleScript). Whilst The Unarchiver is pretty straightforward in itself, AppleScript support means you’ll be able to put together automated workflows with loops, if conditions, and different settings than the app’s ones. The free Mac app, The Unarchiver, received initial AppleScript support with a dictionary that supports extraction and various options such as location of extracted files and originals.

UPDATE : Official link is dead and has been removed. The Unarchiver is designed to handle many more formats than Archive Utility, and to better fit in with the design of the Finder.

There have been some updates to The Unarchiver lately. The Unarchiver is a much more capable replacement for 'Archive Utility.app', the built-in archive unpacker program on Mac OS X. The Unarchiver is a powerful and simple extraction tool with support for multiple formats and a set of user preferences to configure in the Settings. It’s been listed in my Must-Have Mac Apps roundups, and I recommend it to every friend who, after switching from Windows to OS X, asks me about “WinRAR for Mac”.
I have been using The Unarchiver for years now.
