As the previous thread filled up, here is part 2 of the The Unarchiver thread.

• The old thread is here: http://wakaba.c3.cx/sup/kareha.pl/1151796773/
• The homepage is here: http://wakaba.c3.cx/s/apps/unarchiver
• The Google Code page is here: http://code.google.com/p/theunarchiver/

It is much better to post bugs on the bug tracker, rather than in this thread! Anything posted on the bug tracker has much less chance of being forgotten by me!

So, post bugs here: http://code.google.com/p/theunarchiver/issues/list

Also, remember that if you post a bug about a file that is not work, you must also post the file itself, or else there is nothing I can do about it!

Unarchiver won't open RAR files. :(

I can't open a lot of file types including rar and 7z files especially the ones broken into parts .001, .002, etc.

hi,

Everytime i need to open a .zip file, it opens the settings window instead.

To add to that, I cannot change the extensions that it can extract.

Since then I had to use the Archive Utility by Apple.

Please help with this.

The one reason I downloaded this was to try and play Dwarf Fortress on my mac but it keeps saying that it's contents cannot be opened by this program. The mac version can be downloaded on bay12games for the whole folder. The app says it should be able to handle .exe files so there is clearly something I'm not understanding.

@Visco:
.exe are for windows. download the mac version of dwarf fortress.

Is there any way to force The Unarchiver to run in the background on OS Yosemite? Every time my download manager finishes a download, it extracts it (as I want), but The Unarchiver becomes the active application and a window pops up showing (briefly) the progress of the un-zipping. The pop-up is distracting and, imho, unnecessary), and the program steals my keystrokes when I am typing.

I would prefer to have the files unzipped in the background, with no interruption to my workflow.

Thank you.

I have recently swapped out the HDD on my iMac for an SSD. Wow - the speed bump is huge! However, having done this, Unarchiver doesn't remember that I've permitted it to extract files to a folder - usually my desktop - when extracting .rar files

I'm using the MAS version of the app on 10.10.3. I have used AppCleaner to fully uninstall the app and its attendant files and then re-installed it by downloading again from the MAS, but this makes no difference to the behaviour described above. Any ideas please?

TIA,
Tim.

I recently installed TheUnarchiver. It is advertised as able to extract .iso files, but I am unable to select the .iso box on the "Open these archives types with The Unarchiver" page.
