To get this app up and running on any modern app, users simply must download it from the official website or the secure FileHorse servers. The app is distributed inside a compressed ZIP archive, requiring users to unpack it and move it to their Application folder. The software developer recommends unpacking archives in storage locations that will not cause macOS to complain, with the Desktop being the prime position to manage all decompression tasks.
How to Use
To decompress RAR archives with this app, users simply have to start the app and drag and drop archives to its main dashboard. This will initiate a decompression task to the selected directory location that can be customized by the user.
In addition to the automatic decompression, the app can also manage password-protected apps, test files for any errors, and activate the file browser for loading new archives.
User Interface
This app has a simple and user-friendly interface in the form of a small dashboard that promotes just a few on-screen tools. The entire app can be a target for drag & drop moves, immediately detecting selected RAR archives and uncompressing them automatically. Other on-screen tools are located in the top-right corner of the app – Password, Test, Browser, and Extract. The only other configuration tool present is the “Extract to” location picker.
