The Unarchiver is designed to handle many more formats than Archive Utility, and to better fit in with the blueprint of the Finder. Information technology can likewise handle filenames in foreign graphic symbol sets, created with not-English versions of other operating systems. I personally find it useful for opening Japanese archives, but it should handle many other languages merely besides.

It is very simple to utilize and install - simply copy information technology into your Applications folder, or whereever else you might prefer, and then set information technology as the default plan for archive files. This can be washed either from the preferences panel in the program itself, or in the Finder.

Supported file formats include Nix, Tar-GZip, Tar-BZip2, RAR, 7-zip, LhA, StuffIt and many other old and obscure formats. See the supported formats page for a more complete list of supported formats.
