4) Keka does everything Unarchiver can do, with no RAR errors, and handles more formats, plus Keka can also ARCHIVE and unarchive, while Unarchiver can only unarchive, so why keep two apps? 5) the company has caught on that some users are uncomfortable with their reputation, so they created a website just for Unarchiver () rather than directing users to, thinking this will help mask the fact that it is MacPaw behind the curtain. 3) source code is no longer open source ostensibly to hide what calls home are doing and sending. 2) SENTRY is integrated into Unarchiver, supposedly according to dev to allow for 'crash reports' to be sent back to fix bugs but Little Snitch shows this app 'phones home' regularly, even when there has been no errors.why? What info is being sent? See #1 above and add 1 + 1, regards companys' reputation etc.

MacPaw is the same company that makes CleanMyMac X and CleanMyPC.products and company that have questionable reputation. Here's why: 1) App is now owned by MacPaw acquired from the original developer. This should be resolved soon in an upcoming update to OS X, but in the meantime use the fix outlined above.I have removed this app from my Mac, despite at one time having used it for years. If you’re impatient while waiting for it to crash, you can choose to Force Quit out of the app, but it will still initiate the crash reporter. This is obviously a bug with Archive Utility, and the symptoms are almost always the same and very easy to reproduce if you encounter the problem: Archive Utility launches to open an archive, but the progress indicator never moves, the spinning beach ball appears, and eventually the app ends up crashing. Whats more, Unarchiver One is the only free app that enables users to browse the contents of archived files as well as open files directly from archives. Whichever route you choose, go back to your original archive file and open it, Archive Utility will run, extract the archive file, and quit on it’s own just like new. That may be faster for more advanced users. If the command line is your thing, at the Terminal you just need to type: You will now be able to extract and create archives as usual again. This causes appleeventsd to reload, and in that relaunch process Archive Utility will start to behave again. Select “appleeventsd” and click the red “Quit Process” button, confirm when asked.Pull down the processes list and choose “All Processes”, then search for ‘appleeventsd’.Hit Command+Spacebar and type “Activity Monitor” followed by the return key to launch the Mac task management app.You can access the that app at /Applications/Utilities/ but it is fastest to launch from Spotlight: It unarchives all sorts of different files, including RAR format. Here is how to relaunch appleeventsd with Activity Monitor. Relaunch appleeventsd via Activity Monitor Instead, to resolve the Archive Utility problems, you need relaunch a daemon process called “appleeventsd” that runs in the background. Restarting the Mac works, but that’s a huge pain so don’t do that.
