Archive files should be simple.
But in practice, every format seems to want its own tool.
ZIP opens one way.
RAR needs another app.
7Z needs something else.
ZST is not native on mac.
TAR, GZ, BZ2, XZ, ISO, CAB — each format adds another small interruption.
unpackALL is built to remove that friction.
Drop an archive file and unpack it in place.
Extract in place
unpackALL extracts archives directly next to the original file.
That keeps the workflow predictable: the archive is where you found it, and the extracted folder appears there too.
It is useful for downloads, backups, exports, project archives, server packages, and old files where you just want to open the contents without thinking about the format first.
One simple Mac workflow
The goal is simple:
Use one app for many archive formats and extract them where they already are.
unpackALL is part of Beaver Tools, a collection of small Mac utilities focused on solving one clear problem at a time.

unpackALL is available on the Mac App Store:
