Unarchiver
The Unarchiver is a free archive utility for macOS that extracts files from RAR, ZIP, 7z, Tar, Gzip, Bzip2, XZ and many other compressed archive formats. It is more powerful than macOS's native archive utility and supports significantly more formats. The app is widely used by Mac users who need to work with RAR files (not supported natively by macOS) and other less common archive types. It integrates with Finder context menus for convenient extraction and is designed to be lightweight and straightforward to use.

1 suggestionThe Unarchiver has shipped a native Apple Silicon (Universal Binary) build since version 4.3.0 (released in 2021), so it runs efficiently on M-series Macs without relying on Rosetta 2. If you are still running an older Intel-only version under emulation, update to the latest release from theunarchiver.com to get native Apple Silicon support and better performance. The update is free and your existing settings and preferences will carry over. Simply download the latest build from the official site or check for updates within the app itself — either approach will give you the native version automatically on an M-series Mac.
