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. Download this app from Microsoft Store for Windows 10, Windows 10 Mobile, Windows 10 Team (Surface Hub). See screenshots, read the latest customer reviews, and compare ratings for The Unarchiver.

The Unarchiver is an absolutely free macOS app that can be successfully used as a substitute for Apple's BOMArchiveHelper.app, the free built-in unarchive utility.

At the moment, The Unarchiver is distributed directly on the developer’s website and through Apple’s Mac App Store, the single difference between the two apps being that the App Store version is sandboxed, while the one available for direct download is not.

Using the version delivered via the developer’s website could be a very good idea if you find the constant nagging of App Store version a bit too much for your taste (this happens because the App Store version needs your confirmation when it wants to get around the built-in sandbox).

Easy drag and drop or Mac App Store installation

The Unarchiver can be installed either via drag and drop within the Applications folder or by downloading it from the Mac App Store.

if you want to use it as your default archive decompression app, you will have to either choose the archive formats you want it to open via its Preferences window or by choosing it as the default app via Finder’s Open With contextual menu.

Support for a vast amount of archive formats

Moreover, you should definitely give The Unarchiver a try if you are constantly working with a large amount of archive formats on a daily basis, because this app comes with support for formats ranging from the common zip and sit to more exotic 7zip, lha, rpm and deb.

If you want to know if a given archive can be opened using The Unarchive, a detailed list of all the formats it can work with is available on the app’s website, via the Supported formats page.

Built-in support for exotic text encodings

What's more, The Unarchiver is capable of handling archives using a wide variety of foreign character sets and a large array of text encoding, like the ones created while using non-English versions of other operating systems.

The Unarchiver's comprehensive archive support was achieved by using the open source libxad unarchiving library to develop the application.

MacPaw just bought the Unarchiver, one of the Top Free apps on the Mac App Store. We’re super stoked about the news. We promise to maintain, improve, and keep it free for everyone.

Now let us tell you the whole story. This week we did something big: we took it upon ourselves to acquire the best unarchiving application on the Mac market. The Unarchiver is an overwhelmingly popular piece of software for dealing with a common problem — different archive formats on Mac. Getting this app to join our portfolio is a huge privilege, we cannot begin to tell you how excited we are about the deal. After all, The Unarchiver is more than just an app, is a whole niche.

As Mac users find out shortly after buying their Macs, macOS is far from perfect when it comes to interaction with, for instance, RAR archives. More often than not, you’re stuck in a clumsy dialog with your friends and colleagues about sending files some other way, because you just can’t view them from the archive.

Dag Ågren, the creator of The Unarchiver wrote it more than ten years ago. He never expected this little utility to make its way to the Top of the Mac App Store and stay there for good, gaining millions of users in a few years.

Dag was excited about the success for quite a while but ten years is a long time to spend on one project. Not so long ago he got carried away with other endeavours, leaving the Unarchiver almost unattended.

When MacPaw team found out that Dag has no time whatsoever to work on the app, we swooped in and seized the amazing opportunity: to keep The Unarchiver alive for the users. Since millions of people love it and rely on it, it would be truly sad to leave the app with no support for the future OS or with no design updates.

MacPaw developers hope to not only maintain, but improve the The Unarchiver. We plan a major facelift and a couple of new features. The app is going to get prettier and we’ll keep it updated for the upcoming macOS. Naturally, it will always stay free for all users. Welcome to the MacPaw family, Unarchiver, we’re going to love you.
