StuffIt Expander is a proprietary, freeware, closed source, decompression software utility developed by Allume Systems (a subsidiary of Smith Micro Software formerly known as Aladdin Systems). It runs on the classic Mac OS, macOS, and Microsoft Windows.
- From BinHex to Zip, StuffIt to MIME, Expander accesses more formats, in less time, with zero hassles. StuffIt Expander opens files created with WinZip®, 7zX, iShrink, SimplyRAR, Rarify, Rucksack (formerly iArchiver), BetterZip, RarMachine, GUI Tar, CleanArchiver, Springy, TarPit, RAR, Ez7z, Keka, and the compression utilities built into recent.
- Both include Mac OS 9 compatibility. In addition, Aladdin has posted the freeware Aladdin StuffIt Expander 5.5 and the shareware Aladdin DropStuff 5.5. These also include fixes for Mac OS 9.
Look inside & edit archives without expanding
Stuffit Expander For Mac Os X 10.4
Archive Manager allows you to browse the contents of StuffIt, Zip, Tar, and RAR archives, including encoded archives, and compressed Tar archives (tarballs). And it allows you to modify the contents of Zip and StuffIt archives. By default, when you double-click on one of the supported archive types in the Finder, Archive Manager will open a browse window and display the contents of that archive. You can also open an archive to browse its contents by dragging and dropping onto the Archive Manager icon on your Dock.
You can even edit StuffIt and Zip archives WITHOUT expanding, as well as:

- Quickly browse archive contents
- Add files to an existing archive
- Extract single files from an archive
- Rename items in an archive
- Delete items from an archive
When you browse the contents of an archive in Archive Manager the folder structure of the archive is represented hierarchically. By default, the window will contain all the items located in root (or top level) folder of the archive. To view the contents of a top level folder, simply click the disclosure triangle next to its name. The contents of the folder will be displayed underneath the folder icon, indented slightly to the right.
In addition to browsing the contents of archives, the Archive Manager application allows you to extract individual files or folders, or a selection of files and folders, from the archive without having to expand the archive in its entirety. Use the Toolbar to select and expand a single file, or the Menu actions, or simply right-click on the file and choose to expand it, or even drag and drop it to the Finder - all four methods are used throughout Archive Manager. Pick whichever is most convenient for you.
Add Comments to your StuffIt Archives
You can use comments to note information about the contents of the archive, or to give directions to a recipient of the archive. When expanded, the comments will be saved as a separate text file. Just click the 'Comment' button in the lower left corner of the archive window.
