The installer will automatically install the application and optionally integrate with the Windows Explorer context menu. UniExtract Installer (5.3 MB) - This is the recommended download. Over time, and with the encouragement of its many users and the fine folks over on the MSFN forum, it has evolved into a mature and very capable unarchiving utility that many, including myself, find indispensable.Дownload Current Version: 1.6.1, Released: The original motivation behind this project was to create an easy, convenient way to extract files from various types of installation packages without the need to remember arcane command line switches or track down separate utilities to handle the unpacking. What it will do, however, is allow you to extract files from virtually any type of archive, regardless of source, file format, compression method, etc.

It cannot (and never will) create archives, and therefore cannot fully replace archivers such as 7-Zip or WinRAR.

Please note that Universal Extractor is not intended to be a general purpose archiving program. It's able to support so many varied file formats by utilizing the many backend utilities listed in the credits at the bottom of the page.

Universal Extractor is a program designed to decompress and extract files from any type of archive or installer, such as ZIP or RAR files, self-extracting EXE files, application installers, etc. This has become the main point of discussion for this project. If you have any questions about, or find any problems with, Universal Extractor, please post your comments to the UniExtract subforum on the MSFN message board. Skip to: Download/Screenshots | Installation and Usage | Technical Details | Supported Formats | Credits Introduction I've not used it myself, but if you're having trouble with the official version or not able to get it to extract newer formats and executables, I'd recommend giving Bioruebe's version a try. I'm not affiliated with the project in any way, but it seems to be a nice continuation of the project in the original open source spirit as my own creation. That said, I recently discovered a project calling itself Universal Extractor 2. There have been a lot of unofficial forks and continuations released, and while I appreciate the effort and enthusiasm, most of those have been closed source updates that I wouldn't recommend. It's not exactly abandoned, but since I no longer run Windows it's not something I have much of a need for these days. If there are 10,000 files in that archive (how would you know, you just downloaded it from the internet), you now have them all over your downloads folder.Note: Development on the 'official' version of Universal Extractor has stopped.

The usual 'go-to' software that seems to be recommended The Unarchiver or Keka just dump the contents of the archive out into the current directory, just like the built in MacOS utility, which to me is a ridiculous mode of operation. The only pieces of software I've found that do this are Entropy, which is no longer supported by the developer and BetterZip, which is $20, but doesn't seem to like extracting files over Samba shares.

Why has there never been a port of something like 7zip to MacOS? Can anyone recommend a free/open source application to view and extract compressed files (zip, 7z, rar, etc) with a simple GUI interface on MacOS? Coming from the Windows and Linux world, there are plenty of free/open source pieces of software that have been able to do this for years.
