What's new in this version:

Bug Fixes:
- Fixed a possible crash when opening an archive through the Favorites sidebar and extracting it with a preset that moves the archive after the extraction
- Fixed a possible crash when extracting or compressing an archive through the queue with the "show save panel" option set in the used preset
- In some places in the user interface BetterZip 3 was referenced instead of BetterZip 4
- "Reveal Service Folder" in Preferences > Presets didn’t work correctly
- Extracting tar archives with multiple root items with the queue didn’t create an extra folder when not set to "Always"
- BetterZip services and the BetterZip button in Finder didn’t automatically show the queue window when compressing or extracting files
- "Opening an archive from Finder immediately extracts it" affected the compression, not only the extraction when dropping files on dock icon
- The Dropzone action could crash Dropzone after completion
- Files were sorted in reverse order when applying a filter in the favorites sidebar
- Extracting the BetterZip download package with macOS 10.10 built-in Archive Utility or Safari could lead to BetterZip being "damaged"
- When adding multiple parts of a multi-volume archive to the queue through the Finder button, they would all be queued instead of the first part only
