Zipeg for Mac: The Ultimate File Opener

Are you tired of struggling to open compressed files on your Mac? Do you find yourself constantly searching for the right software to extract a single photo or document from a large archive? Look no further than Zipeg, the universal. rar and. zip file opener that works seamlessly on Mac OS X Snow Leopard, Leopard, and Tiger.

Zipeg is a tiny but mighty utility that can handle the alphabet soup of archives in addition to commonplace zip and rar. It also supports tar, tgz, gzip, bzip2, iso just to name a few. With Zipeg installed on your Mac, you'll never have to worry about compatibility issues with different types of archives again.

One of the standout features of Zipeg is its ability to intelligently handle folder names when extracting files. You can choose where you want your files extracted (default is your Desktop), select individual folders inside an archive and extract only those folders and subfolders. This level of control makes it easy for users to organize their extracted files exactly how they want them.

Zipeg also fully supports multipart rar and zip files (those that come in multiple parts as file.part1.rar. .. file.part99.rar) as well as password-protected files (provided that you know the password). This means that even if an archive is split into multiple parts or requires a password for access, Zipeg has got you covered.

In addition to its powerful extraction capabilities, Zipeg also allows users to view photographs by launching preview applications and opening other types of documents in associated programs. This makes it easy for users who need quick access to specific documents or images without having to go through the hassle of extracting them first.

Best of all? Zipeg is absolutely free! It works on both Intel-based and PowerPC-based Macs as well as all flavors of Windows. So whether you use both operating systems at home or at work, Zipeg has got your back.

In conclusion, if you're looking for a reliable file opener that can handle any type of archive with ease while giving users complete control over their extracted files - look no further than Zipeg for Mac!

Review

Are you in need of a robust yet quick archive opener that can handle a multitude of file types? Zipeg for Mac is all this and a little more. It can handle .zip, .rar, .7z, .z, .tar, .gz, .tgz, .bz2, and other exotic archive types, and it particularly excels at large archives.

With Zipeg for Mac you can see the files contained in the archive and manually select the ones you wish to expand, leaving unselected files unexpanded. By processing only what matters to you, less space is wasted on your hard drive and you wait less time as the archive opens. This is of course particularly handy for large archives or ones that contain an unexpectedly large number of small files. Another function where Zipeg will beat the competition in is its ability to sometimes extract files from archives that are partially damaged. Most software will only successfully decompress archives if the whole process didn't cause any error, even if some files were OK. Of course, it also handles split archives. The only downside to this software is that sometimes you just want to double-click an archive and expand it. In those cases, it will not be the most appropriate choice, given the fact that two actions will be required instead of one. First you'll need to click your archive, which directly opens Zipeg's interface, and only then you can launch the decompression action.

Zipeg for Mac seems to be a very handy tool that is both free and packed with better features compared with its competition. Anyone regularly using archives, both small, large, or partially damaged should keep a copy of this software on their hard drive for occasions where classic expanders are struggling to get things done.
