Decompressor
Decompressor is a Mac utility app developed by Rocky Sand Studio that specializes in extracting archived files in various formats. It serves as an alternative to macOS's built-in Archive Utility when you encounter compressed files that won't open with the native tool. The app supports multiple archive formats including ZIP, RAR, 7-zip, TAR, GZIP, and others. It's particularly useful for Mac users who frequently work with different types of compressed files from various sources and need reliable extraction capabilities beyond what macOS provides by default.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionBased on the available information, Decompressor appears to have limited recent development activity, with version 1.1 being the latest known release. The App Store listing exists but there's no clear indication of recent updates or Apple Silicon optimization. For archive extraction needs, I recommend switching to The Unarchiver, which is actively maintained and confirmed to be available as a universal binary supporting both Intel and Apple Silicon processors. The Unarchiver offers comprehensive archive format support with deep macOS integration and optimized performance, making it an excellent native alternative.
