HyperBackupExplorer
HyperBackupExplorer is a desktop utility from Synology that allows users to browse, restore and manage backups created by Synology HyperBackup, a backup solution bundled with Synology NAS devices. The app lets users recover individual files or entire backup sets without needing the NAS to be online, making it useful for archival verification, disaster recovery planning, and retrieving data from offline or retired backup media. It is primarily used by small businesses and home users who maintain Synology NAS systems.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find current information about whether Synology has released a native Apple Silicon build of HyperBackupExplorer. The bundle ID indicates this is Synology's official app, and Synology is an actively maintained product line with ongoing NAS software updates. Contact Synology support directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is available or planned before macOS 28 ships in late 2027, since an Intel-only version will stop launching at that time. In the meantime, check Synology's download site for any updates to HyperBackupExplorer that may have added native support. If Synology has not shipped a native build and shows no plans to do so, you may need to consider alternative backup and recovery strategies for your Synology backups, such as accessing them through the NAS's web interface directly or using third-party backup management tools that run natively on Apple Silicon.
