7Zip Zip And Bzip2

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 It is based on The Unarchiver, and lets you easily handle Archives on iOS.

Now, randomly I get a notofication about the encoding the compressed file uses.

So i am temporarily using command line tools to do the operations.

BTW, there seems to be another bug that comes up if you select more than about 250 files from Finder and invoke The Unarchiver.

Then somehow The Unarchiver memory gets corrupted, and the menus no longer work(e.g.

Quit button disappears.) and the program hangs.

I should mention Xee 3.5.3(marketed by the same company) inherited a bug in the new release, that it can no longer reliably read.cbr and.cbz(or.rar or.zip) files reliably either.

Some pages show up as noise, where as other programs(like Comic Reader).

Whats wrong No details whatsoever other than it cant extract.

When that happens, I have to turn to the unfortunately abandoned UnRarX, which has a test function which tells me whats wrong with the archive, such as a corrupted part.

When I try to deselect a file format which I do not want The Unarchiver to expand by default, it will not allow me to do so.

It pops up a dialog saying Set another app as the default app for selected file types if you wish.

In smaller print, it describes the procedure to assign default applications to specific file types.

7Zip How To Assign Default

Even if I did not already know how to assign default applications, I should not be required to do so before I can deselect a file type in The Unarchivers preferences.

This behavior is enough to stop me from using the application.
