The ability to conceal content is what makes ZIP files a hacker's best friend. But they can potentially be - when cybercriminals use them to infiltrate Mac systems. Unless a Mac user uses third-party software, they cannot tell what's inside the zipped folder without opening the file. Usually, ZIP files don't display their content.

Unfortunately, cybercriminals also use ZIP files to advance their course. These two features make the ZIP file format one of the most common ways people share files and collections of files online. So on Xee I rolled back to 3.5.ZIP file bundles multiple files into a single container file and also compresses them. Some pages show up as noise, where as other programs(like Comic Reader).

I should mention Xee 3.5.3(marketed by the same company) inherited a bug in the new release, that it can no longer reliably read. Quit button disappears.) and the program hangs. Then somehow “The Unarchiver” memory gets corrupted, and the menus no longer work(e.g. BTW, there seems to be another bug that comes up if you select more than about 250 files from Finder and invoke “The Unarchiver”.

So i am temporarily using command line tools to do the operations. Now, randomly I get a notofication about the encoding the compressed file uses. Before the last two versions, I could choose ‘Compress “some directory”’ from the finder menu, and then few minutes later I could uncompress it by using “The Unarchiver”. However there are more problems with version 3.11.3. Then they had a problem with 3.11.2, which they think they fixed in 3.11.3. Until this version 3.1.2 it was a 5 star now maybe 4 If you could implement something like that in your next update that would be greatly appreciated! Again, thank you for developing this application, beacuse it is really awesome and allows me to get my job more done more efficiently, but please don't put pop-ups in your software. The developers allow you to display the normal icon for the app or the #StandwithUkraine version. Spark, an excellent email client, is a great example of this. I don't want to be reminded of this when I am unzipping some files on the job, please remove this in your next build or at least give us the option to remove it. I stand with Ukraine and have donated to the cause of helping them get on their feet and fight during this time of war. But why I am writing this review is because of a very frustrating pop-up within The Unarchiver. Amazing utility, but with the annoyance of pop-upsįirst of all MacPaw, love what you guys do, Setapp and CleanMyMacX are staples of the amazing apps and services available for the Mac platform, and developers like you guys keep the Mac such an enticing platform.
