When quitting BetterZip while archive operations are running, you are asked whether you really want to quit. Loading presets has been moved to this button as well. BetterZip now lets you save all the settings in the save panel as a preset. When previewing an app in an archive, its icon, version, and copyright string are extracted and displayed. Holding down the cmd key will toggle the behavior temporarily. Otherwise it will either extract and open the package or do whatever you specified in Preferences > Files. BetterZip will now only navigate into the package, if the option “File packages are expandable” in the View menu is toggled on. 
Enhanced the logic of opening file packages (most importantly apps) with a double click. Favorites sidebar: Added options to not show archive count badges and to disable file browsing, for users who use it as quick and simple extraction drop target only. And the Reveal button in the queue window will open the transcript window in this case. Better visibility when errors occur during queued operations, even if you choose to ignore the errors and continue. When no files are selected, general archive information is displayed. The info pane in the preview sidebar now shows more details. BetterZip will now ask for the correct encoding, when it cannot be determined automatically. Change the encoding of open archives without reopening them. Better handling of Windows zip archives with non-latin character sets. The “Replace File” dialog no longer blocks all other operations and you can now quick-look the two files for a last visual check. For added security, BetterZip will now quarantine apps extracted from archives. While at it, I enhanced the updating of edited archive files in general (fewer alerts, keeping track of open files after saving changes back to an archive). Added an option to always or never update edited files inside the archive. BetterZip can now keep the external rar commandline utility up-to-date and automatically download and install new versions when they are available. Added “Test”, “Open in BetterZip window”, and “Add to archive” to BetterZip button in Finder. (Limited to direct mode and queued operation.) Upon popular demand, save presets now let you move the original files and folders to the trash or any other folder after successful compression. The post-processing script in presets can now be an AppleScript script or even an Automator workflow in addition to shell scripts. Instead of only customizing the filename extension in save presets, you can now specify a pattern to automatically generate filenames using fixed text and variables (like date, time, and username). And you can purge all empty folders from your archive. BetterZip 5 lets you delete all Mac specific files from an archive with a toolbar button click or menu command. Secondly, you can now review which files are going to be deleted and tweak the list before actually deleting anything. Redesigned “Delete with pattern”: Firstly, BetterZip 5 lets you invoke your favorite patterns from the toolbar or menu. Yes, BetterZip now has a “Move archive” command and toolbar button that lets you move the archive to another folder or to the trash. 
Open and extract archives with the XIP format.īetterZip 5 lets you manage your favorite folders and use them as quick extraction targets and as destinations to move your archives to with one button click. Extract and create archives with the Brotli format (also fast and high compression). 
Extract and create archives with the Zstandard format (fast and high compression).Create the most important flavors of Apple disk images (DMG files).All Automator actions now report their progress back.Added an Automator action for testing archives.And when you drag items to the Desktop or Finder windows with icon view, the items will (finally!) be placed where you dropped them. Drag and Drop modernized: Drag items from an archive directly to other apps, e.g., Transmit.This is fantastic: Instead of manually adding each preset to the macOS Services menu (which you still can), you can now access all your presets conveniently from a BetterZip submenu of Finder’s contextual menu.
BetterZip submenu in Finder’s contextual menu.Share from BetterZip to other apps and cloud services.Modern Quick Look Extension to preview the contents of archives in Finder and other apps (macOS 10.15 Catalina and later only – older versions will use the old Quick Look generator which is also included in the app).App (Share) Extension to compress files from inside other apps.BetterZip is a universal app, running natively on Intel and Apple Silicon Macs. Here is a short list of the most important new features and enhancements in this latest version of BetterZip.
