Launch the App Store on your Mac, search for The Unarchiver, and install it on your machine. When it’s installed, you’ll need to set it as the default app for your unsupported file formats. To do this, first launch the app by clicking on Launchpad, searching for The Unarchiver, and clicking on the app. But this feature is not available on Mac and you have to download an app such as Unarchiver to open.rar files. The Unarchiver is the most popular app to open and extract.rar files. Use the Unarchiver to Open.rar files. The Unarchiver app is free and easy to use as it unarchives all types of different files that include.rar format. I have found Archives to be particularly useful in previewing files from Mail or Safari. Archives is $1.99 on the App Store. 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. It supports Quick Look, and it’s $3.99 on the App Store. Download it now from the Mac App Store! The Unarchiver is completely free, and will always remain free. If you appreciate the hard work that has gone into writing it, you can use the buttons below. Note that due to sandboxing requirements with the Mac App Store, The Unarchiver requires authorization the first time you extract an archive. If that step bothers you—or if, in the words of the.

Description

The Unarchiver is a small and easy to use program that can unarchive many different kinds of archive files. 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 https://theunarchiver.com/archives. It is based on The Unarchiver, and lets you easily handle Archives on iOS!

What’s New

The Unarchiver is running like a champ on the new macOS Big Sur.
Fixed:
• Malformed RAR archives don't crash The Unarchiver anymore.
• Extracting malformed archives won't result in out of memory errors or reading out of memory bounds error.
• RARE8E9Filter crash is fixed. Orespawn mod 1.12.2.

Just Works

Does everything it says, opens compressed files quite quickly and efficiently.
Nice to see it is still receiving regular updates, the dark mode addition is very welcome.
A few bugs here and there but on the whole a great app and it's FREE! Can't really complain.

The best .rar extractor

I tried different apps to be able to extract .rar archives the same way Mac extracts .zip archives - without having to open a separate software, without having weird and ugly icons for each .rar archives. Unarchvier finally does that. It works like a nice utility that does it job in the background - I just double click a .rar archive and it gets extracted in the same folder. It works just like extracting a .zip archive natively on Mac. I don't think I ever opened the actual app. Perfect.

UPDATED AGAIN for 4.2 Sent a rar file and this app was what I needed

Still fit for purpose
For some reason one of my clients keeps sending me RAR files. How to download minecraft on a macbook air for free. I hate him! Luckly this app opens them perfectly
PREVIOUS Googled, found this, downloaded and opened. Perfect and simple. Very easy to set prefs as to what you want it to open and did not take over my machine. Recommended

The Unarchiver Editor's Review

The Unarchiver is a simple tool that unpacks compressed files.
This is a strong alternative to the StuffIt Expander, rather than an alternative for BOMArchiveHelper as the producer states. Since they are both free, you may use both applications.
The program has a wide support for various compressed types. You can unpack file types like ZIP, RAR, 7-ZIP, or StuffIt archives, as well as MacBinary files, etc. The support for these file types is good and if the archive is not corrupt, you can get the right output.
I like about the program the fact that it's fast. I am not talking about the unpacking speed, which depends on your CPU processing power and the type of the archive. However, I am talking about the startup speed of the program. With StuffIt, the whole process is a little bit slower because StuffIt has a slow startup.
I didn't like that it doesn't have the support for some archive file types. I remember that yesterday I had to unpack something in a hurry and The Unarchiver couldn't do it. I had to use StuffIt. For this reason maybe is best to have both applications on your Mac.
Pluses: it has a fast startup speed and a nice configuration panel.
Drawbacks / flaws: it doesn't have the support for all known archive file types.
In conclusion:

Dr Unarchiver Mac

the application can do usually a fast and pretty good job. If you don't like waiting for StuffIt Expander to start up, especially for small archives, this application might be an alternative.
