# 1 The Unarchiver alternative for Mac

Canonical page: https://macbase.app/alternatives/the-unarchiver

Free archive extractor for Mac that opens RAR, 7z, ZIP and dozens of other formats.

The Unarchiver is free and opens almost anything, but it only extracts. Most people who switch want to make archives too, look inside one before unpacking, protect it with a password, or split a large file into parts.
